Vaginitis is an inflammation of the vagina that can result in symptoms such as itching, burning, discharge, and discomfort. It can be caused by various factors, including infections (like yeast infections or bacterial vaginosis), hormonal changes, or irritants (such as soaps or douches). Treatment typically depends on the underlying cause and may involve medications or lifestyle changes. It’s important for individuals experiencing symptoms to consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.
