What Causes Recurring Inflammation Of Vagina?

Hi, For 7 months I have had an inflamation of the vergina. It would ease off then come back. After 5 months my doctor sent me to a gynocoligist. He did a biopsy which came back inconclusive. He put in on cortisone cream which was ok for 4 days then the inflmation came back . So I went to a naturopath

Hi,
I understand your concern.
Recurrent infection of vagina can occur because of-
- Disturbance of vaginal flora .. may be due to recurrent contact of infection/ cosmetics used/ antibiotics taken.
- INfections like fungal infections are natorius to recur .. as even a slight infection remaining in vagina can flourish with ... genital un hygiene/ sexual un hygiene/ during menses.
- Treatment of sexually transmitted diseases need to be given to both sex partners. If not so infection recurs with sexual contact.
You should consult a gynecologist/ get investigated & get a full course of specific treatment.
Thanks.
