What causes Vaginal Infection?
Vaginal infection can be explained by many causes .
- Non-infectious vaginitis refers to vaginal inflammation that’s due to chemical irritants or allergies. Spermicides, douches, detergents, fabric softeners, and latex condoms can all irritate the vaginal tunnel . Finally, some sanitary napkins can cause irritation to the vagina.
- Atrophic vaginitis may occur with menopause. This yeast infection is caused by the decrease in hormone (estrogen) levels that cause thinning of the vaginal wall. The vagina is more prone to irritation.
- Yeast Infection is caused by infection with bacteria or yeasts. Trichomoniasis is a type of yeast infection that is spread by sexual intercourse . Other types of vaginal infections occur when a woman has an abnormal (called fistula) connecting the intestine to the vagina. This conduit allows stool to enter the vagina, creating a vaginal infection .
- Bacterial vaginosis may be explained by an imbalance between normally occurring bacteria that protect the vagina and one hand, and bacteria can be infectious ones. Having multiple partners can cause a bacterial imbalance. Infectious bacteria and trichomoniasis are often sexually transmitted.
- Yeast infections (which cause vulvovaginitis by Candida) may occur during an antibiotic when your levels of estrogen is high (eg during pregnancy), if you have uncontrolled diabetes or if your immune system depressed. You’ll also be more susceptible to vaginal yeast infections if you are under stress from a poor diet, lack of sleep or illness, or if you are taking oral contraceptives.
Newborns may also have inflammation and vaginal discharge for a few weeks after childbirth due to exposure to estrogen from the mother just before birth.
