What are the most serious symptoms of bacterial vaginosis?

Bacterial vaginosis is a common gynecological disease. Its occurrence seriously harms everyone's body and brings considerable harm to patients. To avoid the harm of the disease, everyone needs to correctly understand the disease and take the correct treatment. So, what are the most serious symptoms of bacterial vaginosis?

1. The vaginal discharge increases and is grayish white, like a paste, evenly thin, with a small amount of foam (caused by the gas produced by the metabolism of anaerobic bacteria), and no purulent discharge.

2. Vaginal secretions have a fishy odor, and the odor worsens during or after sexual intercourse. This is because the ammonia content in vaginal secretions increases.

3. When examining the vaginal opening and vaginal wall, no obvious inflammation was observed, and there was no itching.

4. Check for Trichomonas, fungi or gonorrhea.

5. Half of the patients may be asymptomatic, and even if they have symptoms, they are mostly mild to moderate. Some patients may have itching and burning sensation in the vulva, but the symptoms are milder than those of Trichomonas vaginitis or Candida vaginitis.

6. If you suffer from bacterial vaginosis and the pathogens grow in large numbers, they can invade the surrounding tissues. Women may develop urogenital tract infections, pelvic inflammatory disease, nephritis and sepsis. Men who are infected through sexual intercourse may develop balanitis, posthitis and urethritis.
