Vaginális

Vaginális refers to anything relating to the vagina, which is a muscular tube connecting the vulva (external female genitalia) to the cervix (the lower part of the uterus). This term is often used in medical contexts to describe anatomical structures, physiological processes, or medical procedures associated with this part of the female reproductive system.

For example, a vaginal examination is a common medical procedure performed to assess the health of the vagina and cervix. Vaginal discharge is a natural bodily fluid that can provide clues about a woman's reproductive health and can indicate various conditions, from normal physiological changes to infections. Vaginal infections, such as yeast infections or bacterial vaginosis, are common health concerns that affect the vaginal microbiome.

Medications can also be administered vaginally, such as suppositories or creams, for localized treatment of infections or hormonal imbalances. The term "vaginal delivery" refers to childbirth where the baby passes through the vagina. Understanding the vaginal anatomy and its functions is crucial for reproductive health and overall well-being in individuals with a vagina.
