VAGINAL DISORDERS Any of the following disorders may also present with a urinary tract infection. [urologyweb.com]

• Recurrent Infection

  Baerheim et al. [26], by using noncharacterized lactobacilli, found no reduction in the incidence of recurrent infections. [academic.oup.com]

  We hypothesized that probiotic lactobacilli used successfully to prevent recurrent infections, would display strong adhesion forces with pathogenic strains and be able to bind pathogens into coaggregates. [journals.plos.org]

• Aspiration

  With this aspiration, we excised the vaginal septum and sutured the remained edge of this septum to the vaginal wall using 2-0 Vicryl (Ethicon Inc., Somerville, NJ, USA) ( Fig. 2 ). [synapse.koreamed.org]

  With this aspiration, we excised the vaginal septum and sutured the remained edge of this septum to the vaginal wall using 2-0 Vicryl (Ethicon Inc., Somerville, NJ, USA) (Fig. 2). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Hyperpigmentation

  However, because topical estrogen is systemically absorbed, its use is associated with side effects such as breast budding, vulvar hyperpigmentation, vaginal bleeding. [clinicaltrials.gov]

  Estrogen cream application often causes temporary hyperpigmentation of the skin in the area of application; patients should be reassured that this hyperpigmentation normally fades after therapy ends. [emedicine.medscape.com]

• Skin Rash

  Allergic skin rash can become inflamed and eroded leading to labial adhesions. This condition is usually caused by wearing diapers for a long time due to which diaper rash and irritations occur. This is the cause of labial adhesions. [brulanta.com]

• Suggestibility

  What code so you suggest? SuperCoder Answered Fri 08th of May, 2015 02:23:15 AM You can use 56441. You can also use 56442 if broadening the aperture or opening of the hymen was performed by using a circular incision. [supercoder.com]

  The results obtained suggest that L. reuteri CRL 1324 can be considered as a probiotic candidate for further in vivo studies for the prevention or treatment of urinary tract infections caused by E. coli. https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01593193 Contributeur [hal.archives-ouvertes.fr]

  The ability of Lcr35 to adhere to cervicovaginal cells and its antagonist activities against vaginosis-associated pathogens suggest that this probiotic strain is a promising candidate for use in therapy. 1. [hindawi.com]

  For you, after you have been opened up again, they would suggest beginning with the smallest dilator and moving up to the largest (size 4). [hystersisters.com]

  The detection of L. iners in women with, and recovering from, bacterial vaginosis (BV) has led to the suggestion that it is not protective against disease ( 8 ). [pnas.org]

• Confusion

  HELEN Dear Helen: I'm wondering if you have confused vaginal adhesions with vaginal atrophy or other types of adhesions. Adhesions are a type of fibrous scarring that results from trauma, infection or inflammation. [old.post-gazette.com]

  Other Conditions that Might Be Present with Labial Adhesions A condition called “imperforate hymen” can sometimes confuse parents and doctors. [kidemergencies.com]

  Girls often present with a bloody discharge and the diagnosis should not be confused with urethral prolapse or ectopic ureterocele. [urologyweb.com]

• Vaginal Adhesions

  No statistically significant correlation was found between any specific surgical procedure and the risk of developing vaginal adhesions. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  The patients with no vaginal adhesions had regular sexual intercourse and thus had improved quality of life. [inis.iaea.org]

  If adhesions are separated manually at an early stage, surgical outcome and sexual function do not seem to be adversely affected. Keywords: Dyspareunia; Pelvic organ prolapse; Reconstructive pelvic surgery; Vaginal adhesions; Vaginal dimensions. [pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Dyspareunia

  Rates of prolapse recurrence, postoperative vaginal narrowing and dyspareunia were not significantly different between groups. [link.springer.com]

  Here, we report a case of vaginal adhesions following a difficult labor that presented as dyspareunia for 5 months. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Imperforate Hymen

  In this procedure, the provider incises the tissue membrane covering the opening to the vagina or birth canal, to widen an opening that is too narrow, resulting in painful sexual intercourse, or to treat imperforate hymen in which the membrane completely [supercoder.com]

  (ii) Imperforate hymen Imperforate hymen presents as a bulging membrane between the labia minora. There may be a mucocolpos behind an imperforate hymen because of vaginal secretions which have been produced in response to maternal estrogens. [urologyweb.com]

  An imperforate hymen should be suspected in an adolescent presenting with primary amenorrhea; cyclic abdominal pain; and a bluish, bulging hymen. [aafp.org]

  Other conditions that may need to be investigated include an imperforate hymen (a hymen that completely closes off the vaginal entrance) or a septate vagina (the vaginal septum, creating a ‘double vagina’). [allthingsvagina.com]

• Vulvar Edema

  Previous reports showed that genital tract trauma such as large vulvar edema, or vaginal or labial laceration is associated with postpartum labial adhesions [ 2 ]. In our case, the patient reported dystocia and numerous pelvic examinations. [synapse.koreamed.org]

  Previous reports showed that genital tract trauma such as large vulvar edema, or vaginal or labial laceration is associated with postpartum labial adhesions [2]. In our case, the patient reported dystocia and numerous pelvic examinations. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Urinary Dribbling

  Girls with Labial adhesions come to clinical attention because of local irritation/ itching, urinary infections, post void urinary dribbling or sometime when severe with difficulty in passing urine. [pediatricurology.in]

  Older girls may report urinary dribbling. This is a result of urine that gets trapped behind the adhesion, later dribbling out. Additionally, some girls may report irritation due to the adhesion. [chop.edu]

  However, common symptoms or complaints can include: Urinary dribbling which is due to urine that gets trapped behind the adhesion or fused labia, later dribbling out. Skin or vaginal irritation or redness. [eapsa.org]

See DDx and Workup for more detail. Management Labial adhesions can often be managed with periodic observation; spontaneous resolution may occur and commonly occurs during puberty. [emedicine.medscape.com]

• Staphylococcus Aureus

  Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA5 and Klebsiella pneumoniae KP7 were the uropathogens most susceptible to blockage, and Staphylococcus aureus SA11 and Proteus mirabilis PM1 were the most resistant. [academic.oup.com]

  Using atomic force microscopy, we found that adhesion forces between lactobacilli and three virulent toxic shock syndrome toxin 1-producing Staphylococcus aureus strains, were significantly stronger (2.2–6.4 nN) than between staphylococcal pairs (2.2– [journals.plos.org]

Treatment might be relevant for those who have concomitant symptoms. If so, information on the treatment alternatives must include reference to frequent recurrences after drug-based as well as surgical treatment (2 – 4). [tidsskriftet.no]

A similar treatment plan was developed. At our facility, X-ray films alone are used to check the location of radiation sources for BT and develop treatment plans. [bmcwomenshealth.biomedcentral.com]

Although adhesion and invasion were not affected, damage was greatly reduced upon azole treatment. [abdn.pure.elsevier.com]

First-line treatment for labial adhesions in prepubertal girls has been topical estrogen. This study aims to evaluate an alternative and less costly option of treatment with potentially less side effects. [clinicaltrials.gov]

Prognosis The prognosis for girls with labial adhesions is excellent. If left untreated, the condition usually resolves spontaneously at puberty. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Outlook / Prognosis What is the outlook for females with labial adhesions? The outlook is very good. The problem resolves itself in many girls no later than when they begin menstruating. Treatments, when needed, are effective. [my.clevelandclinic.org]

Future studies will focus on the differences in prognosis and recurrence between patients with IUA with high and low percentages of Lactobacillus, initially in an animal model and subsequently in volunteers. [spandidos-publications.com]

Outlook (Prognosis) How well you do depends on your symptoms, an accurate diagnosis, and proper treatment. Many patients must try different therapies (some at the same time) to reduce symptoms. Instant improvement is unusual. [birthtraumacanada.org]

To date, the most important aspect of preventing adhesions is the surgical technique and meticulous nature of the region. [miklosandmoore.com]

The emollient and barrier creams also help treat the underlying vulvovaginitis and prevents it from returning. [childrenscolorado.org]

How can labial adhesions be prevented? Preventing irritation to the labia will sometimes prevent adhesions. This means choosing diapers that are not irritating to your baby, changing them frequently, and treating diaper rashes quickly. [drgreene.com]
