Abstract
Most women will have a vaginal infection, characterised by inflammation, discharge, itching, or odour, during their lifetime. However, not all cases of vaginitis are caused by a vaginal infection. Numerous vaginal preparations are available to manage vaginitis caused by a vaginal infection or other underlying conditions. The types of vaginitis, and their management using vaginal preparations, are reviewed in this article.
