Why do people get candidal vaginitis after abortion?

Abortion generally refers to artificial abortion, and candidal vaginitis generally refers to vulvovaginal candidiasis, which is caused by decreased immunity after artificial abortion, improper postoperative care, unclean sexual life, etc.

1. Decreased immunity: After an abortion, women’s cervix and endometrium will be damaged to a certain extent and cannot fully recover in a short period of time. At the same time, the body’s immunity is reduced and the endocrine level is disordered, so the number of Candida in the vagina will multiply, causing an inflammatory response.

2. Improper postoperative care: After surgery, improper care, failure to clean the genital area in time, or contact with clothes or objects infected with Candida can also induce vulvovaginal Candida infection.

3. Unclean sexual life: If the body has not fully recovered and unclean sexual life with the partner occurs, causing Candida to invade the female vagina, it will induce vulvovaginal Candida disease, leading to symptoms such as increased secretions, local burning, and sexual pain.

In addition to the common causes mentioned above, it may also be due to long-term use of antibiotics, large amounts of estrogen treatment, excessive cleaning, etc. It is recommended to go to the obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital in time to avoid continued deterioration of the disease and affect normal life.
