📋Overview
Vaginitis encompasses a range of conditions characterized by vaginal inflammation, often resulting from an imbalance of vaginal bacteria, yeast infections, or certain medical conditions. This condition frequently involves changes in the volume, color, or odor of vaginal discharge along with localized irritation.
While often caused by infectious agents such as bacteria or fungi, the condition can also arise from non-infectious factors, including reduced estrogen levels during menopause or sensitivities to specific irritants. Clinical classification typically depends on the underlying cause of the inflammation.
