What are the hazards of bacterial vaginosis to women?

What are the dangers of bacterial vaginosis for women? Bacterial vaginosis is a common gynecological disease in women. Bacterial vaginosis will have a great impact on women's physical health. If you have symptoms of bacterial vaginosis, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. Let's take a look at the dangers of bacterial vaginosis.

1. Impact on the quality of sexual life:

Bacterial vaginosis will be accompanied by symptoms such as vulvar itching, which will cause many inconveniences and impacts on women's life and work, and will also affect the sexual life of couples.

2. Induce other diseases:

Bacterial vaginosis can induce genital infections, pelvic inflammatory disease, perinephritis, dyspareunia and other diseases.

3. Bacterial vaginosis can cause infertility:

Under normal circumstances, the flora in the vagina is relatively balanced, and the pH is relatively balanced (the pH value is approximately between 3.8-4.5). This environment suitable for the temporary retention and passage of sperm is very important. Once this environment is destroyed, infertility is likely to occur.

If you have bacterial vaginosis, the pH value of the vagina will exceed 4.5. The change in the pH value of the vaginal environment will inhibit the activity of sperm. In addition, pathogenic bacteria will devour sperm, and when you have bacterial vaginosis, the vaginal secretions will increase significantly, and the secretions contain a large number of white blood cells, which will hinder the survival of sperm and reduce the number of sperm. Those who have a small number of sperm and poor motility are likely to cause infertility. In addition, once the inflammation ascends and infects the uterine cavity, causing salpingitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc., it will also cause infertility. Of course, if you actively treat it, you can get pregnant again.

4. Impact on fetal development:

The harm of bacterial vaginosis to the patient itself is imaginable. In addition to causing trouble to the mother's reproductive health, patients with severe bacterial infection will also be affected in their normal work and study. During pregnancy, this harm is naturally increased because it will also endanger the fetus, causing fetal movement disorders at the mildest, and premature birth and miscarriage at the worst.
