Is bacterial vaginitis sexually transmitted?
Bacterial vaginosis is not sexually transmitted. The occurrence of bacterial vaginosis is mainly due to changes in the vaginal environment, which leads to an imbalance of bacteria normally present in the vagina. Some bacteria become dominant, leading to the development of bacterial vaginosis. Most cases of bacterial vaginosis are due to low immunity in women, reduced body resistance, or long-term use of vaginal medications which disturb the vaginal environment, resulting in bacterial vaginosis. It is not classified as a sexually transmitted disease. For bacterial vaginosis, if there are obvious symptoms such as abnormal vaginal discharge or external genital itching, treatment with metronidazole or clindamycin can significantly relieve discomfort. In addition to medication, attention should be paid to the hygiene of the external genitalia and improving one’s immunity, as many cases of bacterial vaginosis can heal on their own. (Please follow medical advice when using medication.)
How long does it take to recover from cervical polyp removal surgery?
Cervical polyp removal varies depending on the size and location of the polyp. Recovery also varies accordingly. For small external cervical polyps, routine polypectomy is commonly performed, allowing patients to recover shortly after surgery, generally without any discomfort within two to three days. However, for larger cervical polyps, especially endocervical polyps that require removal, the surgery must be completed under hysteroscopic electrocautery. Recovery from this type of surgery generally takes about a week. Regardless of the type, regular follow-up exams are necessary after removing cervical polyps to rule out the possibility of recurrence.
Will weight decrease with amenorrhea?
Amenorrhea can lead to weight loss but it can also cause weight gain. The impact on weight varies depending on the cause of amenorrhea. If a woman experiences amenorrhea due to consistent dieting and weight loss, it can lead to a physiological disorder of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, resulting in what is known as psychogenic amenorrhea. This type of amenorrhea usually results in significant weight loss in women. On the other hand, if a woman's amenorrhea is caused by polycystic ovary syndrome, it does not lead to weight loss and can even cause significant weight gain. Amenorrhea caused by this condition generally requires treatment with medication and interventions such as exercise before symptoms can improve significantly. Therefore, the treatment for amenorrhea should be based on its specific causes, as different causes can have different effects on weight.
What are the symptoms of trichomonas vaginitis?
The symptoms of trichomoniasis vaginitis include: First, there can be a significant increase in vaginal discharge, which is mostly thin, purulent, and yellow-green in color, frothy, and has a distinct foul odor. Second, it can manifest as itching or a clear burning sensation and pain in the vulva, and even significant pain during sexual intercourse. Third, upon gynecological examination, the vaginal mucosa can be found to be visibly congested, and scattered bleeding points may even be observed, as well as bleeding spots on the cervix, which is what is commonly referred to as a strawberry-like cervix. A routine examination of vaginal discharge that reveals trichomonas can diagnose trichomoniasis vaginitis. Since trichomoniasis vaginitis can be sexually transmitted, it is necessary to treat the sexual partner with antitrichomonal medication simultaneously.
What should I do about yeast vaginitis?
Candidal vaginitis is an inflammation caused by a Candida infection in the vagina, leading to abnormal vaginal discharge and vulvar itching among other discomforting symptoms in women. Therefore, active treatment is generally necessary for candidal vaginitis. Fungi do not grow well in alkaline environments, thus washing the vulva with alkaline medicinal solutions can reduce symptoms of vulvar itching and aid in healing the disease. Additionally, local vaginal medications such as antifungal drugs like nystatin or clotrimazole vaginal tablets should be applied. In severe cases, oral treatment with drugs like fluconazole may also be necessary. Typically, symptoms of candidal vaginitis can be thoroughly alleviated after antifungal treatment. (Please follow medical advice regarding medication use.)
