The noninfectious vaginitis is usually referred to merely as a vaginal irritation since it is without an infection being present. The most common cause for this irritation are also common, everyday activities. This allergic reaction is an irritation due to vaginal sprays, douches, or even spermicidal products. It may be also be caused by a woman’s sensitivity towards perfumed soaps, detergents, or the scented fabric softeners.

The most common symptoms of noninfectious vaginitis may include: vaginal itching, vaginal burning, vaginal discharge and pelvic pain particularly during vaginal intercourse. However, each of us may experience our own symptoms differently. Also, the symptoms of a noninfectious vaginitis infection may only resemble other conditions or underlying other medical problems. You must always therefore consult your physician for an appropriate diagnosis.

Treatment for noninfectious vaginitis is treated generally through estrogen creams and oral tablets. Through these, there will be a restoration in lubrication and eventually decrease soreness and irritation in the vagina.

However, there are also specific treatments that cater to unique cases of bacterial vaginosis. This specific treatment will have to be determined by a physician based on the following:

* expectations for the course of the disease
* your opinion or preference
* your age, overall health, and medical history
* extent of the disease
* type and severity of symptoms
* your tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
