Can patients with bacterial vaginosis exercise?

Women's private parts are very prone to breeding a large number of bacteria, so female friends should pay special attention to the cleanliness of their private parts in summer, and do more moderate exercise to adjust the body's resistance. The following experts will introduce whether patients with bacterial vaginosis can exercise.

1. Exercise moderately

Many women are in a sub-healthy state due to work pressure and lack of exercise. Their body resistance is relatively poor and their immunity to pathogens such as mold is low. In addition, women often walk around in low-temperature air-conditioned rooms and high-temperature outdoor areas in summer, which causes women to alternate between cold and hot. If they have a cold or are menstruating, their body resistance will decrease, and pathogens such as mold in the vagina will easily "rise up". Therefore, it is recommended that women should regularly participate in physical exercise to maintain their body resistance at a high level.

2. Good living habits

Women should avoid long periods of sitting, wearing tight pants, and frequently using sanitary pads, which will cause the female private parts to be often in a humid and warm environment. In addition, poor air circulation and heat dissipation are particularly suitable for the growth of mold, which will cause vaginal flora imbalance over time. In particular, some sanitary pads contain anti-inflammatory and bactericidal drug ingredients. For healthy women, while killing vaginal pathogens, they will also damage beneficial bacteria, causing vaginal flora disorder.

Treatment of vaginal diseases should be adhered to

In fact, bacterial vaginosis can be cured. If the patient's condition recurs, there are three possibilities: improper medication, cross infection and infection with special fungi. Improper medication includes not combining oral medications before menstruation and topical medications after menstruation well. These antifungal oral and topical medications need to be used for 3-5 days before and after menstruation, and the disease is considered cured only after the routine leucorrhea examination after three menstrual cycles is negative for fungi. However, the time span during this period is relatively long, and some patients may not insist on taking the medication when the symptoms are slightly relieved, resulting in incomplete treatment.

Secondly, cross-infection between sexual partners is also a major cause of recurrence of the disease. Sexual intercourse should be avoided during medication, and cross-infection between husband and wife should also be prevented after treatment. Before treatment, the fungus in the female vagina can be transmitted to the sexual partner, but there are generally no symptoms in men. When a woman has sex with a man after being cured, she is likely to be infected again. Therefore, bacterial vaginosis is generally recommended to be treated together with husband and wife.
