Causes of cervical erosion and bacterial vaginosis

There are many common gynecological diseases in women, and cervical erosion and bacterial vaginitis are two of them. Such diseases bring great harm to women's health. If they are not treated in time, gynecological diseases will seriously threaten women's normal life. It will be troublesome. There are many reasons for these two diseases. We must check them in time. What are the causes of cervical erosion and bacterial vaginitis?

Causes of Bacterial Vaginosis

Causes

1. Indirect contact infection

Contact with toilets, bathtubs, bath seats, towels in public toilets that are contaminated with bacteria, and using unclean toilet paper can cause infection.

2. Sexual transmission

It is one of the causes of the disease. At least 10% of men with symptoms on the female side have bacterial urethritis.

3. Taking large amounts of antibiotics

Antibiotics change the vaginal microenvironment, causing pathogenic bacterial pathogens to multiply and leading to localized bacterial vaginosis.

4. Excessive attention to hygiene

In order to maintain hygiene, some women often use medicated washes to irrigate the vagina, which can easily destroy the acid and alkaline environment of the vagina and make it easy to get bacterial vaginitis.

Causes of cervical erosion

1. Unclean sexual life

Due to the barrier protection of the hymen, the microecological environment in the vagina of unmarried women is in a balanced state. Even if pathogens invade, they are unlikely to cause trouble, so cervical erosion rarely occurs. Why does cervical erosion occur? Experts from Shanghai Base Gynecological Hospital said that once sexual intercourse begins, the vagina is relatively in an "open" state. During sexual intercourse, the penis and cervix are in direct contact. If men do not pay attention to sexual hygiene, they can directly bring bacteria into the vagina and infect the cervix. For women who already have cervical erosion, it can aggravate their cervical inflammation, expand the erosion area, and in severe cases, bleeding during sexual intercourse may occur. Therefore, men are to blame for cervical erosion. Therefore, men must be persuaded to clean their external genitalia before having sex.

2. Multiple artificial abortions

More importantly, repeated artificial abortions can cause varying degrees of cervical damage, giving bacteria an opportunity to invade and cause cervicitis. Due to the stimulation of inflammation, local secretions increase, and long-term immersion of the cervix in inflammatory secretions will cause erosion. Therefore, women of childbearing age must take good contraceptive measures, avoid multiple artificial abortions, and prevent the occurrence of cervical erosion.

Mild cervical erosion often has no clinical symptoms. Some patients may experience increased vaginal discharge, which may be milky white mucus or yellow pus. Sometimes there may be bloody vaginal discharge or cervical contact bleeding. It generally does not affect fertility, so female friends do not need to worry too much.

3. Excessive cleaning

Why does cervical erosion occur? Some women pay great attention to hygiene, but lack the necessary knowledge and often use high-concentration disinfectant to flush the vagina, which has the opposite effect. Because doing so will not only affect the growth of normal vaginal flora and reduce its ability to inhibit pathogens, but can also cause varying degrees of cervical epithelial damage and eventually erosion. Therefore, the correct way to clean the genitals should be: clean the vulva appropriately, do not flush the vagina unless necessary, maintain the natural defense line of the female reproductive tract, do not destroy the ecological balance in the vagina, and prevent bacteria from causing trouble.

The causes of these two diseases are different, but when facing disease treatment, you must check in time what kind of disease you have, so that you can receive timely treatment. If it is a bacterial infection, then it is very important to eliminate the bacterial infection. Remember to do local cleaning for yourself at any time. However, local cleaning also has a limit. Do not over-clean, otherwise it will cause disease.
