Vaginal Infection Treatment Singapore

Vaginal infections are a common cause of irritation, unusual discharge, or discomfort. They may result from bacterial, fungal, or sexually transmitted organisms and often arise when the vaginal flora or pH balance is disrupted.

At Asimont Clinic, we provide discreet, evidence-based diagnosis and personalised treatment to support your comfort and long-term gynaecological health.
Restoring Balance to the Vaginal Environment

What Are Vagina Infections?

Vaginal infections develop when the protective balance of bacteria and acidity in the vaginal environment is disturbed. This may allow overgrowth of yeast, invasion by harmful bacteria, or transmission of sexually transmitted organisms. Common forms include:

Yeast infections (Candidiasis) – Typically presents with thick white discharge and itching
Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) – Often produces a fishy odour and greyish-white discharge
Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) – May be asymptomatic or cause burning, discharge, or spotting

Prompt evaluation and diagnosis are essential to guide effective treatment.
