What are the dietary taboos for patients with bacterial vaginosis?

Bacterial vaginosis is very common in women, and the causes of the disease are different. Everyone's physical constitution is different, and the onset of the disease is also different. There are some dietary taboos for female bacterial vaginosis. Let's take a detailed look at what are the taboos. What foods should women pay attention to for bacterial vaginosis?

1. Avoid spicy food: Eating too much spicy food (chili pepper, ginger, onion, garlic, etc.) can easily cause dryness and heat, which can cause heat and toxins to accumulate in the internal organs, resulting in symptoms such as swollen and painful gums, sores in the mouth and tongue, short and red urine, burning sensation in the anus, itching and pain in the front and back of the vulva, thereby aggravating the symptoms of bacterial vaginosis.

2. Avoid seafood: Fishy foods, such as mandarin fish, yellow croaker, hairtail, black fish, shrimp, crab and other aquatic products can promote damp heat, and after eating can make vulva itching worse, which is not conducive to the disappearance of inflammation, so they should be avoided.

3. Avoid sweet and greasy food: greasy food such as lard, fatty pork, cream, butter, mutton fat, etc., high-sugar food such as chocolate, candy, desserts, cream cakes, etc. These foods help to increase moisture and heat, which will increase the secretion of leucorrhea and affect the treatment effect.

4. Avoid smoking and drinking: Smoking can aggravate the disease because the nicotine in tobacco can weaken the binding force between arterial blood and oxygen, and alcohol can promote dampness and heat, so it should be avoided. Similarly, foods containing alcohol, such as fermented rice wine, medicinal wine, etc., should not be consumed.
