Vaginal infection in women is caused due to bacteria/ yeast, low secretion of estrogen and hormonal imbalance. Natural bacterial vaginosis treatment may be beneficial for treating vaginal infection. There are certain symptoms of vaginal infection. They are enlisted below:
- Most of the women suffering from vaginal infection have a foul smell (often fishy smell) in their vagina.
- There is a white or colored discharge accompanied by pain
- Sometimes, blood may flow out
- There is often dryness in the vagina or lack of vaginal secretion
- Dryness of the vagina is accompanied by itching and burning sensation.
- Candidal infection may be caused due to a variety of reasons. Candidal infection must be treated with care and attention since it can cause trouble by interfering with child birth.
- There may be problems during sexual intercourse and terrible pain following it.
- Vaginal infection is mainly associated with persistent gynecological problems like delay in menstruation and uneven flow during the menstrual cycle.
- There may be local irritation from panties, condoms and soaps.
- Use of biological washing powder and tight fitting clothes are harmful for the vagina. They may cause vaginal infection.
- Recurrent urinary trouble may cause vaginal infection.
The menstrual history of a person determines whether the person has an infection-free vagina or not. In case of any vaginal infection, the menstrual flow is disrupted and there are complications.
