What are the diagnostic criteria for vaginitis?

Vaginitis is an inflammation of the vaginal mucosa and submucosal connective tissue, and is a common disease in gynecological clinics. As age increases, the chance of developing the disease increases. So what should we pay attention to in the care of vaginitis ?

1. The first thing to care for vaginitis is that the vaginal discharge is grayish white, very sticky, even like paste, uniform and consistent, but not purulent, and the amount is uncertain.

2. The secretion has a particularly high amine content, so it has a fishy smell. During sexual intercourse or after activity, the smell is often aggravated due to the release of amines. Adding 10% potassium hydroxide to the secretion can also release the amine smell.

3. The pH value in vaginal secretions increases, with a pH range of 5.0-5.5, while the normal pH is 3.7-4.5.

4. Clue cells can be detected in wet smears of vaginal secretions.

Among the above four criteria, those who meet three or more can be diagnosed, and the fourth one is emphasized as a necessary diagnostic criterion for vaginitis.

The above is the introduction of the diagnosis of vaginitis, for reference only. If you want to confirm vaginitis, you should choose a regular large hospital.
