Why are obese women more likely to suffer from vaginitis?

Recently, many friends have been asking a question: Are you more likely to get vaginitis if you are overweight? Because of the trouble of vaginitis, the physical and mental health of many female friends has been affected to a certain extent. So is this really the case? The fatter you are, the more likely you are to get vaginitis . Let the experts introduce it to you.

It should be said that the occurrence of vaginitis is directly related to not paying attention to local hygiene, and does not seem to have a direct causal relationship with obesity. However, in clinical practice, there are indeed examples where the fatter the person, the more likely they are to suffer from vaginitis. What is the reason for this? Before explaining this phenomenon, we must first introduce the self-cleaning function of the vagina.

Vaginal epithelium can proliferate under the action of estrogen, and the cells contain glycogen, which is decomposed into lactic acid under the action of vaginal lactobacilli to maintain the normal weak acid environment in the vagina, thereby inhibiting pathogens that can only reproduce in an alkaline environment. If this normal weak acid environment is lost, vaginitis is likely to occur.

Are you all aware that the fatter you are, the more likely you are to get vaginitis? This shows that there is a certain relationship between obesity in women after middle age and the occurrence of vaginitis. Therefore, middle-aged women should control their food intake and strengthen exercise. This can not only help lose weight and prevent diabetes, but also reduce the occurrence of vaginitis.
