摘要
The 3 common forms of vaginitis seen in healthcare providers' offices include bacterial vaginosis, yeast, and trichomonas infections. These conditions have a variety of treatments that are generally successful. Occasionally, resistant or recurrent infections are found and treatment can be more difficult in these situations. It is important to carefully inspect the gross appearance of the vulva, the wet mount, and perform laboratory studies to be confident of the diagnosis when formulating a treatment plan for vaginitis. © 2005, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
