Bacterial vaginosis can also cause infertility

We all know that the most common disease among female friends is gynecological disease. For example, bacterial vaginosis is very common and very harmful, which has a significant impact on the patient's family. So how to prevent this disease? Let us learn about it through the following introduction.

1. Do a good gynecological examination every year, and don't be shy to treat bacterial vaginitis. Many female friends lack the awareness of self-care and rarely take the initiative to go to the hospital for a gynecological examination. Even if they know they have gynecological diseases, some may think that gynecological diseases are minor illnesses, and as long as it does not affect work and life, it doesn't matter whether they go to the hospital or not.

2. Pay attention to the hygiene of public places. Try not to use public bathtubs. When going to the toilet in public places, it is best to choose a squat toilet instead of a toilet. Do not swim in public swimming pools that are not strictly disinfected. When traveling on business or for pleasure, it is best to stay in a hotel with relatively strict disinfection if possible. Try to use your own towel.

3. Healthy women should not use any vaginal washes indiscriminately. The reproductive organs of healthy women have relatively complete self-defense functions in terms of anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry, which can prevent infections caused by external factors.

4. Pay attention to sexual hygiene and menstrual hygiene. Once infected with bacterial vaginitis, measures should be taken to prevent transmission to others. The couple's underwear, bed sheets, wash towels, etc. should be boiled and disinfected for 5 to 10 minutes and dried in the sun. Washing utensils and bedding, such as towels and bathtubs, should be used separately. After recovery, pay attention to boiling and disinfecting personal items such as underwear and bed sheets and expose them to the sun in time to avoid repeated infection.

5. When suffering from bacterial vaginitis, both husband and wife must receive treatment at the same time. Sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited during treatment. Strictly follow the doctor's orders for medication. Do not stop taking the medication without authorization after symptoms such as itching improve, thinking that you are cured, or ignore the follow-up examination after taking the medication. Do not go to the pharmacy to buy some medicine on your own. In short, the treatment must be thorough to avoid recurrence.
