Which groups of people are prone to fungal vaginitis?

According to statistics, about 10% ~ 20% of healthy women have candida albicans in their vaginas. So under what circumstances will these candida albicans multiply into pathogenic bacteria?

(1) Extensive use of broad-spectrum antibiotics: Usually, there are many bacteria in the vagina of women, and these different flora restrict each other to form a state of * * *, which is not pathogenic. The extensive and long-term application of broad-spectrum antibiotics makes vaginal flora disorder, mutual inhibition changes, and Candida albicans can multiply in large numbers. With the increasing use of antibiotics, the incidence of fungal vaginitis has also increased.

(2) Pregnancy: The level of sex hormones during pregnancy is significantly higher than usual, which will increase the content of glycogen in vaginal epithelial cells and increase the acidity of vagina, thus forming an environment conducive to the growth of Candida; At the same time, pregnancy will reduce the immunity of cells and make candida easy to cause disease. According to statistics,13 of pregnant women have candida in vagina, and the incidence rate is about 15%.

(3) Diabetes: After suffering from diabetes, the body's glucose metabolism is disordered, blood sugar is increased, the content of glycogen in vaginal epithelial cells is increased, and the acidity in vagina is also increased. Candida is suitable for growth and reproduction.

(4) Application of corticosteroids: Long-term application of corticosteroids will reduce the phagocytosis of white blood cells and reduce the immunity of the body; At the same time, corticosteroids can also increase the body's blood sugar level and increase the possibility of fungal vaginitis.

(5) Application of immunosuppressants: It will reduce the body's immunity and is prone to fungal vaginitis.

(6) Application of estrogen: Estrogen can deposit glycogen in vaginal epithelial cells. These glycogen are decomposed into lactic acid under the action of Lactobacillus vaginalis, which increases the acidity of vagina and is beneficial to the growth of Candida.

(7) Fungal vaginitis is also prone to occur when severe diseases lead to decreased resistance, or when vitamin B complex is lacking.

In addition, some people think that oral contraceptives will increase the incidence of fungal vaginitis.

Can fungal vaginitis be contagious?

Although 10% ~ 20% of healthy women carry candida in vagina, and some special situations in life, such as long-term use of antibiotics and diabetes, can induce vaginal candidiasis infection, but many times fungal vaginitis can also be infected from the outside. When women have sexual contact with men with positive candida culture, the infection rate is 80%; About12 of men will be infected if they have sexual contact with women with fungal vaginitis. In other words, fungal vaginitis can be transmitted through sexual behavior, which is why when a woman suffers from fungal vaginitis, her spouse should also receive treatment at the same time. In addition, indirect contact infection is also a route of transmission of fungal vaginitis. Contact with mold, hit the cheek, set up a tomb? * * * Toilets, bathtubs, bath chairs, towels, and dirty toilet paper can spread. Fungal vulvovaginitis can occur when the number of candida in infected vulva and vagina reaches a certain level.

What are the clinical manifestations of fungal vaginitis and how to diagnose it?

The most common symptom of fungal vaginitis is pruritus vulvae, and leucorrhea is obviously increased. The patient's itching symptoms are sometimes mild and sometimes severe, and sometimes stop. Vaginitis caused by fungal vaginitis is generally more obvious than trichomonal vaginitis, and those with severe itching are restless and insomnia. Patients will also have vaginal burning sensation, especially when urinating. When the inflammation is serious, there will be frequent urination, dysuria and sexual pain. Leucorrhea is another major symptom of this disease. Leucorrhea is generally sticky in texture, white or yellow in color, or thin. The leucorrhea of typical fungal vaginitis is bean curd residue-like or milky white block. See you during gynecological examination: according to the severity of the disease, the labia minora and vaginal mucosa have different degrees of congestion and labia minora edema. There are many sticky leucorrhea in vagina or vaginal mucosa covered with white membrane. Wipe off the white membrane, the exposed mucosa is red, swollen, erosive or superficial ulcer can be seen.

If the symptoms are typical, it is not difficult to make a diagnosis, but it must be combined with routine laboratory tests to make a diagnosis. The commonly used method is hanging drop method: drop a drop of physiological saline or 10% potassium hydroxide solution on the glass slide, and take a small amount of secretion and put it under a microscope for direct examination. If pseudohyphae and spores are found, it means that Candida is in a pathogenic state at this time and can be diagnosed as fungal vaginitis. If the patient's symptoms are suspicious, but no false hyphae are found by direct microscopic examination for many times, bacterial culture should be done.
