3. Inner swelling. Some women with vulvitis may experience swelling on the inner side of the labia minora, eczema, congestion, and erosion.
4. Pruritus on the skin of the external genitalia. Pruritus of the vulva is the main symptom of vulvitis, and many women experience itching after suffering from vulvitis.
5. Pain during sexual intercourse. When folliculitis occurs in the external genitalia of women or due to the presence of abscesses, it can cause high swelling and pain in the external genitalia, leading to the formation of furuncles, accompanied by painful urination and sexual intercourse.
6. Mucosal congestion. Women with vulvitis have a certain degree of swelling and congestion in the skin and mucous membranes of the vulva, and in severe cases, there may be a certain degree of erosion and ulcers, or eczema.
The hazards of vulvitis
1. Affects sexual activity. Vulvitis not only causes itching and other discomfort in the external genitalia, but also pain during sexual activity. The skin of the external genitalia is congested and swollen, and in severe cases, erosion and ulcers can occur, affecting the quality of women's sexual life.
2. Transmit to partners. Vulvitis not only endangers one's own health, but also spreads to partners. If a woman suffers from vulvitis and engages in sexual activity, the pathogenic bacteria can be transmitted to the male, but the symptoms of the male infection are not obvious. If the inflammation is not treated at the same time, the female repeatedly infects during sexual activity and the vulva repeatedly attacks.
3. Directly affects fertility. At present, the HPV virus directly damages the female endocrine system, disrupts the normal metabolism of the human body, hinders follicular development, and harms the female cervix. For men, vulvitis can directly kill sperm, resulting in low sperm survival rate and sperm abnormalities. In severe cases, it can lead to infertility
4. Psychological harm: Vulvitis not only harms patients physically, but also makes it a sexually transmitted disease, and patients will bear enormous psychological pressure. The abnormal gaze of others and the repeated attacks of this disease make patients suffer greatly, which can easily lead to depression, self abandonment, and even the idea of suicide.
