Almost every woman has experienced the distress of vaginitis, whether married or unmarried. It can be said that vaginitis is simply the biggest and most troublesome enemy to women’s health. This is because having vaginitis makes it difficult to talk about, and it may recur, repeatedly harming our bodies. In fact, many women do not know how they got vaginitis, just subconsciously thinking it might be due to sexual activity. In fact, this is just one of the reasons, and it accounts for a small proportion. The real culprits that can cause you to have vaginitis are mainly these 3 points!
1. Failure to change sanitary pads in a timely manner
A large number of women do not have the habit of changing sanitary pads regularly. They only remember to change when they go to the restroom, and sometimes they wait a long time to change if the menstrual flow is not heavy. This is actually a very wrong practice. If sanitary pads are not changed for a long time, it will lead to the proliferation of a large number of bacteria, especially Candida which will grow rapidly and quietly invade the female private parts, causing inflammation. Therefore, regardless of the amount of menstrual flow, it is important to develop a habit of changing pads regularly. Also, when buying sanitary pads, try to buy from reputable manufacturers, do not compromise on quality, as it may cause secondary harm to the private parts.
2. Too frequent sexual activity without attention to hygiene
The source of female inflammation is not necessarily due to their own reasons, it may also occur in their partner. If two people have very frequent sexual activity but do not pay attention to cleanliness before and after, the bacteria carried by the male partner may enter the female body, causing inflammation. Therefore, for one’s own health and that of the partner, hygiene must be taken into consideration.
3. Sharing bathing or basin facilities with others
Some women pay attention to private hygiene habits in their daily lives, but make a mistake when they share their personal basin facilities with others. This practice is very wrong because regardless of how healthy a person is, they will have many bacteria before cleaning. If two people share, these bacteria may enter the female body through the basin facilities, especially some fungi and molds, the invasion is very fast and can easily cause inflammation in the female private parts. Therefore, women must avoid sharing cleaning utensils with others.
Of course, these wrong practices may be the main cause of you having vaginitis. But this disease tends to recur. How can we prevent ourselves from getting vaginitis again in our daily lives? These practices are worth considering:
Prevention: Pay attention to private hygiene regularly, avoid sexual activity during menstruation and treatment of vaginitis, maintain a light diet, but do not over-clean.
Avoid blind medication: Follow medical advice when treating inflammation, do not self-medicate, as disrupting the bacterial balance in the private area may lead to a recurrence of inflammation.
