The main factors causing senile vaginitis

There are many types of vaginitis, and senile vaginitis is one of them. So why do the elderly also suffer from vaginitis? Next, let's learn from the following article what are the causes of senile vaginitis .

1. Due to the decline of ovarian function and the decrease of estrogen level, the vaginal wall of patients with senile vaginitis atrophies, the mucosa becomes thinner, the glycogen content in the epithelial cells decreases, the pH in the vagina increases, and the local resistance decreases. The pathogenic bacteria of vaginitis can easily invade and multiply, causing inflammation. Therefore, this is one of the causes of senile vaginitis.

2. Since the vaginal mucosa of patients with vaginitis atrophies, the epithelium is thin, and the blood supply is insufficient, the resistance of the vagina is reduced, which makes it easier for bacteria to invade and multiply, causing inflammatory lesions of vaginitis. In addition, poor personal hygiene habits and nutritional deficiencies, especially B vitamin deficiency, may be related to the onset of vaginitis. In addition, surgical removal of bilateral ovaries, premature ovarian failure, pelvic radiotherapy, long-term amenorrhea, long-term breastfeeding, etc. can all cause the occurrence of senile vaginitis. These are all causes of senile vaginitis.
