Question: i want to know what cause vaginitis vulvovaginitis and why i keep getting it and how to prevent it .? can u get it from sex
Answer: Vaginitis (or Vulvovaginitis)
Vaginitis, now being called vulvovaginitis (inflammation of the vulva and vagina), is characterized by itching, redness, and a swollen vaginal opening. The three major causes of vaginitis are yeast infections, trich, and bacterial vaginosis. Vaginitis can also indicate the presence of other diseases. In addition, it can be caused by irritation as a result of insufficient lubrication due to hormonal changes that affect vaginal secretions.
Menopausal women frequently complain of vaginitis, which is aggravated by intercourse. Lubricating the vagina artificially should clear up vaginitis caused by dryness. The next time your doctor tells you that you have vaginitis, respond by asking, “And what’s causing it?”

Question: Does anyone have a little girl with vaginitis? I have a 3 year old who has had labial adhesions twice since she was 2and 1/2 but has also suffered recurrent vulvovaginitis for two years. We have tried everything...changed soaps, no bubble baths, cotton clothing, I try to wipe her when she potties, yeast infection medication, etc. Nothing seems to work...I am so discouraged...we have been to the doc on multiple occasions and they keep saying the same...tried vinegar in the water, rinsing off after baths, etc. Does anyone know anything that helps for this and how to get rid of it or keep it from returning?
Answer: my 3.5 yr old daughter has very regular reoccurring yeast infections,urinary tract infections and bladder infections. I have done the same things, no bubble baths, wiping,etc but nothing helps, I live in FL now but when we went back home for a visit a little while ago, our doctor in IA suggested getting her kidneys checked. evidently if a valve isn't working correctly it can cause those problems plus a whole slew of others. anyway i am getting her kidneys checked soon so i will know.
ask your doctor about that, just an idea.
hope she gets better and ya'll figure it out soon-----Soul
Question: Pain during intercourse.? I've been experiencing a bad burning/stinging sensation during sex with my boyfriend. It's getting worse and lubrication is not helping. I think I might have vulvovaginitis. Does anybody know any home remedies that might help ease the pain until I can get to my ob-gyn? Or give me any advice at all? Thanks so much.
Answer: Don't have sex. I have this same problem. Doctors never found anything wrong with me. Some women just have this problem, but yes go to the doctor cause u could have a problem.
Question: plz help? any gyno or nurse plz? ok so my prob is that im pretty sure i have vulvovaginitis since i have 4 out of 5 symptoms... and i got online the kind of treatment for it... the reason i cant go see an actual gynocologist is because first of all i dont have enough money or any insurance and second of all the nearest gyno to me is 65 miles away and costs 100 just for the checkup... so please i am rly desperate...plz if ur going to answer me dont say "you should rly go see a doctor" or "borrow some money"... i just need a nurse or doctor or someone who knows to confirm with me if this will cure my vulvovaginitis:
hydrocortisone cream
Flagyl
Garlic (a peeled whole clove wrapped in gauze) used to rub around the infected area
Warm Baths (No soap)
For Nurse Annie:
The symptoms i experience are
this wierd odor
terrible itching
inflamation of labia, vulva, vagina
redness
Answer: Any type of foul vaginal odor indicates that an infection is present and needs to be evaluated by a doctor. The two most common infections are yeast and bacterial vaginosis. A yeast infection has symptoms of a yeast type odor, itching around the vaginal opening and surrounding area, and a cottage cheese type discharge. BV has a fishy type odor, and the discharge can either be yellow, green, or white. In the meantime, make sure you eat a balanced diet. Cotton underwear is also helpful in preventing moisture from developing. Make sure after going to the bathroom that you wipe from front to back. In the mean time refrain from any type of douching, as douching can not only disrupt the normal pH of your body, but can also make it more open to infection. Avoid use of any types of feminine sprays, talcs etc as they can also disrupt the normal balance. Also avoid any type of scented toilet paper. You will need to see a doctor for an evaluation to determine what type of infection, so the proper treatment can be prescribed. In your particular case your best bet would be to visit a local Planned Parenthood as their fees work on a sliding scale according to what you can afford. You can find a local clinic here

Question: Is thrush caused by pinworms? Ok, so about 3 weeks ago i diagnosed myself with pinworms, and i realised i must have had them for a few months.
I went to my mum and she got me the treatment (im 15, female) so now they're all gone.
BUT i have and have had for a few months vaginal discharge, a smell down there, itching and irritation, and a thin layer of white stuff on the labia lips.
Now i refuse point blank to go to a gyno (please dont suggest that) and am perfectly happy with over the counter treatment. I have no idea whether its thrush or vulvovaginitis or bacterial vaginosis and what treatment to use with the right one - please help!!!!
No the smell is very rare
what treatments could i use (over the counter)?
Answer: Could be yeast or BV. If the pinworms found there way to the vagina, it could cause vulvovaginitis. Consult w/ your doctor.
Question: is vulvovaginitis curable?
Answer: Vulovovaginitis is defined as the inflammation of the vaginal canal which has extended to the vulva (the external female genitalia). It can be caused by bacteria (gardnerella), fungus (candida) or protozoans (trichomonas). The good news is there is a cure for the condition irregardless of the cause. Consult your medical specialist for proper management.
