Let me tell you about the causes of bacterial vaginosis

It is understood that many female friends who suffer from bacterial vaginitis are still unclear about the cause of bacterial vaginitis, which is very unfavorable for the correct treatment of bacterial vaginitis. Everyone needs to know the causes of bacterial vaginitis . What are the common causes of bacterial vaginitis? The following will tell you about the common causes of bacterial vaginitis.

Common causes of bacterial vaginosis include:

In normal women of childbearing age, under the action of endocrine hormones, vaginal epithelial cells proliferate, and their surface cells are rich in glycogen, which is very conducive to the growth of facultative lactobacilli, which account for more than 90% of the vagina. The presence of a large number of lactobacilli inhibits the growth of other pathogens and forms a normal ecological balance in the vagina. When the estrogen level in the human body decreases, the vaginal epithelium atrophies and the cell glycogen decreases, which is not conducive to the growth of lactobacilli. The large-scale use of antibiotics or excessive flushing of the vagina with alkaline liquids inhibits the growth of lactobacilli and is the cause of bacterial vaginitis.

Sexual promiscuity and frequent sexual intercourse (because the pH of semen is 7.2-7.8) lead to the proliferation of pathogenic anaerobic bacteria and Gardnerella, causing the imbalance of vaginal microbial ecology and the reduction of facultative aerobic lactobacilli, which eventually leads to bacterial vaginosis. This is a common cause of bacterial vaginosis.

The decarboxylase produced by anaerobic bacteria can stimulate Gardnerella to produce certain amino acids, resulting in volatile amines, which release an unpleasant fishy odor. Amines increase the pH value and inhibit the reproduction of lactobacilli. The vaginal epidermal cells that are attached to bacteria fall off, increasing vaginal secretions, thereby leading to this disease. It is also a common cause of bacterial vaginitis.

The above are the common causes of bacterial vaginitis. I believe everyone should know about it. Female friends can actively prevent the disease according to these causes of bacterial vaginitis to avoid the occurrence of bacterial vaginitis.
