Vaginitis is an inflammation of the vaginal mucosa caused by pathogenic bacteria or fungi
According to statistics every third woman of reproductive age suffers from it. To understand the cause of vaginitis, it is important to realize that many different microorganisms (beneficial and pathogenic) live in the vagina. Their balance depends on the woman’s age, her lifestyle, and the function of the ovaries.
An alkaline environment in the vagina can trigger gynecological diseases
These factors affect the glycogen content in the vaginal walls, which, when converted into lactic acid at a sufficiently high concentration (pH 4 – 4.5), prevents the spread of harmful bacteria.
The advice we offer sounds strange, but it is exactly what some gynecologists recommend to women who are truly concerned with protecting women’s health!
Using antibiotics to treat vaginitis can worsen the problem by triggering the spread of a fungal infection. Chemicals can cause both allergic reactions and excessive dryness.
At the same time there are natural remedies to normalize the microflora of the female genital organs and eliminate the undesirable manifestations of vaginitis. Important: before starting any treatment you should first undergo tests to determine which pathogen caused the disease (bacterial or fungal).
Since ancient times a chamomile decoction has helped women maintain their health
Pour 1 liter of water over 2 tablespoons of dried chamomile flowers, bring to a boil and let simmer for 5–10 minutes. Perform rinsing and douching depending on the severity of the condition. Chamomile should not be used after the microflora has normalized.
To prevent vaginal infections, consume sufficient amounts of fermented dairy products, wear underwear made from natural fabrics, and use gentle products containing lactic acid for intimate hygiene.
Important
Ask your partner to rinse himself before sexual intercourse to minimize the introduction of foreign bacteria into the vagina.
