Possible causes
- Atrophic vaginitis
A condition in which the vaginal surface becomes dry and thin, commonly seen after menopause due to decreased female hormone levels. Symptoms include itching and painful intercourse.
- Candida vulvovaginitis
This is a fungal infection by Candida that affects the vaginal area. Candida normally exists on skin and vaginal linings without issues. An infection occurs when the skin or vaginal lining changes in character, promoting Candida overgrowth. People with weakened immune systems or on birth control pills may be at increased risk.
- Descent of uterus / uterine prolapse
The uterus (womb) protrudes outside the body when the muscles and tissues supporting it become weakened, such as after repeated childbirths or aging, causing the womb to drop out.
- Pollakiuria
- Chlamydia infection
- Vaginitis
- Gonorrhea
- Cervical cancer
- Genital herpes
Related serious diseases
- Pelvic inflammatory disease
A disease where organs in the pelvis, such as the uterus, become infected. This causes abdominal pain, fever, and other symptoms. Since the infection can spread quickly, prompt antibiotic treatment is crucial.
