Gynecological inflammation is a common disease in women, mainly refers to the inflammation of female reproductive organs (Vulvitis, vaginitis, cervicitis, metritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, annexitis, sexually transmitted diseases, etc.), Female reproductive organs usually have different acute and chronic inflammation.
Insufficient treatment of inflammation will cause the spread of inflammation and cross-infection in various physiological sites, and it will bring many complications, adverse effects on immune function, metabolism and endocrine system, and even lead to malignant lesions in certain parts.
If it is a pregnant woman, gynecological inflammation can cause intrauterine infection, birth canal infection and other factors affecting the newborn, causing serious consequences such as miscarriage, premature birth, congenital malformation, and mental retardation.
We divide the causes of gynecological inflammation into physiological and pathological factors:
1) Physiological reasons
(1) The skin of the female vulva is very delicate, the skin is rich in sweat glands and has many wrinkles. Hense there is skin that's hidden and not exposed, poorly breathable, and easily attacked by germs.
(2) The female genitalia and the abdomen are connected to the outside world, and the germs can enter the uterus from the vagina.
(3) There are a large number of lactobacilli in the vagina that can decompose glycogen to produce lactic acid, which makes the vagina an acidic environment. Therefore harmful bacteria can not grow here. However, when the local resistance decreases, some pathogens and pathogens will take advantage of it.
2) Pathological reasons
(1) Do not pay attention to hygiene during menstruation, use unclean sanitary pads, and have sex during menstruation.
(2) The operation of uterine cavity surgery is not strict.
(3) gynecological surgery such as abortion, childbirth causes damage to the cervix and vagina, causing infection.
(4) Female vulva and genital mucosa are important organs involved in sexual activity, and sexual life may cause damage or cross infection to local tissues.
How to reduce the incidence of gynecological inflammation?
1. Wash and change frequently
This require women to develop healthy habits. Underwear should be changed frequently, in order to ensure it to be clean and dry. In addition, the underwear should be washed separately to avoid cross-infection of mold.
2. Reduce the usage of antibiotics
Many people take antibiotics whenever they have cough, fever, and headache. In the long run, bacteria will have resistance, which leads to the proliferation of mold. Therefore, we must reduce the use of antibiotics.
3. Reduce the use of "washing healthier" products
Under normal circumstances, there are many kinds of microorganisms in the vagina, but the vagina forms an ecological balance with these microorganisms, and usually does not cause disease. The use of vaginal douche will destroy the self-leaning function of the vagina and destroy the pH of the vagina, so that the pathogens will take advantage of it and grow rapidly, thus increasing the chance of illness.
4. Pay attention to public places
Pay attention to the hygiene of public places, and go out, especially in public places, there will be a lot of mold hidden, so everyone should put toilet paper on the front of the toilet, etc.
