In this society, everyone's life pressure is very high, coupled with the psychological impact of women suffering from gynecological diseases, it is really difficult to improve the quality of life. Therefore, the high-risk population of gynecological diseases should take preventive measures. So, what are the symptoms of vulvitis? Which women are prone to getting sick?
The common symptoms of vulvitis are itching, burning sensation, and pain in the skin of the vulva, worsening after activity, sexual intercourse, and urination, acute redness and swelling, congestion, scratches, chronic inflammation, pain and itching, opening of the vulva, lichenization, and swelling, congestion, erosion, and eczema on the inner side of the labia minora in some patients.
The following types of people are prone to vulvitis:
(1) Extensive use of broad-spectrum antibiotics: Usually, many bacteria are parasitic in the vagina of women, and these different bacterial groups restrict each other to form a symbiotic state, which is not pathogenic. The widespread and long-term use of broad-spectrum antibiotics has disrupted the vaginal microbiota, altered their inhibitory effects, and led to the proliferation of Candida albicans. With the increasing use of antibiotics, the incidence rate of fungal vulvitis has also increased.
(2) Pregnancy: During pregnancy, the levels of sex hormones in the body significantly increase compared to normal, which can increase the glycogen content in vaginal epithelial cells, increase vaginal acidity, and create an environment conducive to the growth of Candida; At the same time, pregnancy can reduce the immune system of cells, which makes Candida susceptible to disease. According to statistics, one third of pregnant women have candida in their vagina, and the incidence rate is about 15%.
(3) Diabetes: after suffering from diabetes, the glucose metabolism in the body is disordered, the blood sugar rises, and the glycogen content in the vaginal epithelial cells increases, which also increases the acidity in the vagina. Candida is suitable for growth and reproduction.
