What are the main symptoms of bacterial vaginosis?

The incidence of bacterial vaginosis is very high, and it has also caused great trouble and harm to the majority of women. So what are the clinical symptoms of bacterial vaginitis? Only by understanding these can we treat this disease in time and avoid the development of the disease. So, what are the main symptoms of bacterial vaginosis?

1. Increased vaginal discharge

Typical symptoms of bacterial vaginosis are a significant increase in abnormal vaginal discharge, which is thin, homogeneous or thin, pasty, grayish white, grayish yellow or creamy yellow, and has a special fishy odor. Since alkaline prostatic fluid can cause the release of amines, the odor worsens during or after sexual intercourse. The pH value of the vagina increases during menstruation, so the odor may also worsen during or after menstruation.

2. Itching and discomfort in the vulva

Patients experience discomfort in the vulva, including varying degrees of vulvar itching, which is generally not time-sensitive, but is more obvious when resting or under stress. Bacterial vaginitis can also cause varying degrees of burning sensation during external use, and some patients experience pain during sexual intercourse. Very few patients experience lower abdominal pain, difficulty in sexual intercourse, and abnormal urination. The vaginal mucosal epithelium does not show obvious congestion at the onset of the disease.
