What Is Vaginitis?
Vaginitis is inflammation of the vaginal tissue. It can cause symptoms such as:
-
Vaginal itching or burning
-
Vaginal pain or irritation
-
Light vaginal bleeding or spotting
-
Pain during intercourse
-
Abnormal vaginal discharge
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek medical evaluation to determine the underlying cause.
How Is Vaginitis Treated?
Treatment for vaginitis depends on the underlying cause. In many cases, vaginitis can be effectively treated with targeted medication, such as:
-
Antibiotics for bacterial vaginosis
-
Antifungal medications for yeast infections
-
Hormone therapy for vaginal atrophy, when appropriate
If vaginitis is related to irritation from personal care products or habits, your provider may recommend changes to help prevent recurrence.
Vaginitis can cause significant discomfort, but most cases are treatable with proper care.
