&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Vaginitis is any inflammation of the vagina. Inflammation can be a sexually related infection or a non-sexually related infection.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Vaginitis can happen to&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; women of all ages. One-third of women may suffer from vaginitis at some point in their lives.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Vaginitis occurs when the vaginal walls become inflamed due to an irritant disrupting the natural balance of the vagina.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is vaginitis?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;The term &quot;vaginitis&quot; refers to conditions that produce inflammation or pain in the vagina. Itching, a burning feeling when peeing, or foul-smelling vaginal discharge may all occur for many reasons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Vaginitis can be caused by bacteria, fungi, parasites, or other organisms, as well as chemicals found in creams or personal care items. Vaginitis can be caused by sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or vaginal dryness due to low oestrogen levels. Vaginitis is fairly common, affecting almost everyone with a vagina at least once in their lives.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://pulse-clinic.com.ph/booking&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com.ph/Files/Pai/Causes%20of%20Vaginal%20Infections%20(Vaginitis)%20in%20the%20Philippines%20What%20You%20Need%20to%20Know%20Women%20Health%20Women%20Care%20Women%20Clinic%20002.jpg&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;You rarely consider your vaginal health unless something unusual happens. Then your vagina consumes your whole thought process. Itching, burning, pain, swelling, and uneven discharge are all signs that something is wrong. While regular check-ups are important for your vaginal health, you should also see a healthcare professional if something seems wrong.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;There are various possible causes of vaginitis, each with its own set of symptoms and treatments.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What are the most common types of vaginitis?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;The most prevalent kinds of vaginitis include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bacterial vaginosis (BV)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most frequent kind of vaginal inflammation. Bacterial vaginosis arises when bacteria that naturally exist in your vagina overgrow for whatever reason, resulting in a bacterial imbalance. The most typical indication is discharge with a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/why-do-i-have-smelly-vagina&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;fishy odor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Yeast infection&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Yeast infections are the second-leading cause of vaginitis. It is caused by an overgrowth of the fungus Candida.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/candidiasis&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Candida&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; generally lives in your vagina without problem, but when you have a yeast infection, Candida disrupts the balance of other &quot;good&quot; bacteria. It may cause burning, irritation, and changes in your &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/vaginal-discharge&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;vaginal discharg&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/vaginal-discharge&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;e&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Trichomoniasis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Trichomoniasis (trich) is a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/std-test-and-treat&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;sexually transmitted infection&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; caused by the microscopic single-celled parasite Trichomonas vaginalis. When this bacterium enters your vagina, it can produce unpleasant symptoms such as itching and foul-smelling discharge. Sexual intercourse is often the mode of transmission for this form of vaginitis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Genital Herpes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Genital herpes-related vaginitis occurs when the herpes simplex virus (HSV) triggers inflammation of the vaginal tissues, leading to symptoms that overlap with both genital herpes and vaginitis. In this case, the presence of HSV can cause painful sores or ulcers on the vaginal walls, which may result in additional irritation and inflammation. This can exacerbate typical vaginitis symptoms such as itching, burning, and unusual discharge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Non-infectious related Vaginitis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;This form of vaginitis develops when you have an allergic reaction to vaginal sprays, scented soap, douches, or spermicides. The skin around your vagina is also susceptible to feminine products like wipes, sexual lubricants, detergents, and fabric softeners.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Atrophic Vaginitis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Atrophic vaginitis (genitourinary syndrome of menopause) is a kind of vaginitis caused by a reduction in estrogen levels. It makes your vagina thin and dry. This occurs largely during perimenopause and postmenopause, which can be natural or surgical (ovaries removed).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;You may also feel comparable sensations if you are nursing (chestfeeding) or have recently given birth (postpartum) owing to hormonal changes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What are the signs of vaginitis?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;The symptoms of vaginitis vary according to the kind. Some may cause no symptoms at all. Multiple types of vaginitis can occur concurrently.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;However, some signs and symptoms can appear in several types of vaginitis. This includes:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Changes in the colour, texture, or scent of your vaginal discharge.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Vaginal itch, burning, or irritation. Your vulva may even seem and feel enlarged.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Dysuria is the sensation of pain during urination.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;pain during intercourse or when inserting a tampon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;When you don&#39;t have your period, you may experience light bleeding or spotting.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Your &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/vaginal-discharge-colour-coded-guide&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;vaginal discharge&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; contains various signs that may reveal the sort of vaginitis you have. Pay attention to what you see in your underwear and when you wipe. Infection can be identified by a discharge that has a strong odor, is clumpy, or is frothy. Your discharge should be transparent, white, or off-white. A discharge that appears green or yellow may also indicate an infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How do you get vaginitis?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Depending on the kind of vaginitis, there might be several reasons. Some of the reasons are:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Changes in vaginal microbes. Two of the most frequent kinds of vaginitis are &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/yeast-infection-symptoms-diagnosis-and-treatment&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;yeast infections&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; and bacterial vaginosis, which arise when the bacteria that live in your vagina become imbalanced in some way. Antibiotics can also alter your vagina&#39;s regular flora, resulting in a yeast infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Infections that are spread through sexual contact. Sexual intercourse can spread infection-causing parasites, germs, and viruses. Depending on the STI, infection can spread by vaginal intercourse, anal sex, or oral sex, resulting in vaginitis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Products containing chemical irritants. Certain personal care products, such as lotions, detergents, and sprays, may include substances that induce vaginitis. Spermicides can potentially trigger an allergic response, resulting in vaginitis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Hormonal levels fluctuate. A drop in the quantity of estrogen produced by your body might induce vaginitis. Pregnancy, nursing, and menopause are some of the times when your body experiences hormonal changes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What are the risk factors for vaginitis?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;The following variables may raise your risk of vaginitis:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Recent antibiotic treatment or long-term corticosteroid use.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Hormonal changes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Having an STD.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;wearing wet, sweaty, and form-fitting garments.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Douching.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Use of perfumed vaginal sprays and spermicides.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Unmanaged diabetes, health disorders, and drugs that impair your immune system.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How can I prevent vaginitis?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;There are certain things you may take to reduce your chances of developing vaginitis. Good hygiene and safe sex are essential. Other things you can do are:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Avoid wearing clothing that retains heat and moisture. Wearing nylon underwear, pantyhose without a cotton panel, tight spandex, yoga pants, or jeans may result in yeast infections. Choose loose, &quot;breathable&quot; textiles that do not retain moisture, such as cotton.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Avoid wearing damp swimming suits or sweaty workout clothing for too long. Yeast and bacteria thrive in warm, damp environments.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Avoid using strongly fragrant vaginal soaps or sprays. Vaginal sprays and strongly perfumed soaps might irritate the vagina and aggravate the infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Do not douche. Douching can alter the proper balance of germs in your vagina, resulting in a vaginal infection. Douching can help disguise an existing illness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Wipe from front to back. Be careful not to distribute excrement from your anus to your vagina. Similarly, wash sex toys and other things (including your fingers) before inserting them into your vagina.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Consult your doctor about the advantages of taking hormones. If you&#39;re nearing menopause or have low estrogen levels for whatever reason, speak with your doctor about the possible benefits of utilising vaginal hormone tablets or lotions to keep your vagina lubricated and healthy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Schedule frequent screenings. Good health practices are essential. Schedule a thorough gynaecologic checkup at PULSE Clinic or any sexual health screening. If you have several sexual partners, you should obtain an STI check.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If you are concerned about vaginal infection (vaginitis) or worried about other sexual health issues, please feel free to contact PULSE Clinic. We are here to help, not to judge!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;All in All&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Vaginitis is a common yet often overlooked condition that can affect women of all ages, caused by infections, hormonal changes, or irritants. Recognising the signs&amp;mdash;such as unusual discharge, itching, burning, or discomfort&amp;mdash;is key to timely treatment and maintaining vaginal health. By practising good hygiene and safe sex and seeking regular screenings, you can reduce your risk and protect your well-being.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
