ABSTRACT

Even though vaginitis has a limited number of causes, many physicians find it difficult to diagnose accurately and manage effectively. Before vaginitis is treated, the cause must be ascertained, but this is often not done, and treatment failure results. The physical evaluation and a simple office microscopic analysis are key to pinpointing the cause and tailoring treatment.
