About Vulvovaginitis

Vulvovaginitis is not a single procedure but a common medical condition involving inflammation or infection of the vulva and vagina. An Obstetrics and Gynaecologist diagnoses and manages this condition through a comprehensive evaluation. The process typically involves a detailed medical history, a pelvic examination to assess for redness, swelling, or discharge, and often includes collecting samples (like a vaginal swab) for laboratory analysis to identify the specific cause, be it bacterial, fungal (like Candida), parasitic (like Trichomonas), or non-infectious (like irritants or hormonal changes). Treatment is then tailored precisely to the underlying cause, which may include antifungal creams, antibiotic tablets, or recommendations for lifestyle and hygiene adjustments to relieve symptoms like itching, burning, and abnormal discharge and prevent recurrence.

Key Highlights

    Accurate diagnosis through clinical examination and laboratory testing.Tailored treatment plans based on the specific cause (bacterial, fungal, etc.).Effective relief from uncomfortable symptoms like itching, burning, and discharge.Prevention of recurrent infections through patient education and management strategies.Non-invasive diagnostic approach in most cases.

PATIENT REVIEW

Sara Malhotra, a 35-year-old software developer...

Sara Malhotra, a 35-year-old software developer and new mother 6 months postpartum, was exhausted. She was battling intense vaginal itching, a thick, white discharge, and soreness while breastfeeding her daughter. She felt overwhelmed, attributing it to 'new mom stress' and hormonal changes, but the discomfort was relentless. Her OB/GYN, Dr. Patel, diagnosed a severe Candida albicans (yeast) infection, a common postpartum vulvovaginitis. Dr. Patel prescribed a longer course of antifungal medication, considering Sara's breastfeeding status, and offered reassurance about its safety. The treatment brought gradual relief, though the first few days were tough while managing a baby. Full recovery took about two weeks. Emotionally, Sara felt validated that her suffering had a tangible cause and treatment. Moving from a state of silent endurance and guilt for focusing on her own needs to one of self-care, she felt more like herself again, better equipped to enjoy motherhood without constant physical distress.
