Vaginitis is like a cold, it is not strange to see, do not have embarrassing thought baggage, although it is not a serious disease, but if it is ignored all the time, it may cause serious consequences. For example, pathogens may go up through the reproductive tract to cause acute cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility and other diseases.
