PaperLace: Don't mind (some of*) them. Possible scenario: - lady goes to toilet - lady cleans up wrong way (or otherwise compromises integrity of vagina) - "wrong" bacteria/organisms introduced - vaginal pH destabilized etc - symptoms result (note: not all discharges are caused by STI) - lady concludes she has "toilet disease" * I never said STI's can be transmitted through toilet seats. For the avoidance of doubt, if what your woman has is an STI, it *probably* wasn't from the toilet. But here's the thing: itching and discharges are not only caused by STI, so, if those are the symptoms your woman has, it *could* have been from the toilet, e.g. through the scenario I painted above. Doctors, show me the error in my post (after kindly stating your qualification, thank you). 3 Likes |

Add me for further explanation. Asides what the pharm explained. One of the problem is excessive obsession of ladies to make there vagina clean by doulching. Doulching is bad and it can predispose to infection. For d dullards from daura that claims there is toilet infection ur brain needs reset delerx: 1 Like |

Medically, there is nothing like toilet infection of the vagina. Most of the time, it is an STI. Could also be Vulvovaginal candidiasis which can happen to virgins and non virgins alike due to factors such as douching, hormone levels, emotional state, washing down there with medicated soap and what not. Those shouting that the splash from water from the toilet is the cause of the itching, that's just your mind playing tricks on you. Just wash with a mild soap and you're fine. I finished from medical school in 2013 and I was never taught of toilet infections, and read up the medical school materials of 3 different countries. So if you have research to prove otherwise, kindly post it here. 3 Likes |

Kenshinmunac:Its.not true that she got through sex.a million females gt it through the toilet and also through excessive sugar intake.google is your friend abeg.And is this pharmacist a doctor? Pls let's not take everything we read.medicine is not an exact science. Even virgins get toilet infections. The heat from the toilet can cause it,even when you urinate in a public urinal,a splash can cause it. |

idu1: Probably mutating and becoming super resistant to antibiotics called SUPERBUGS which scientists have been warning about.. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-birmingham-26488275 One more thing, ejor.. where did this op get such an idea that there isn't anything like toilet infection biko.. Or what do we call infections gotten from the prolonged use of dirty public conveniences which i have seen and experienced firsthand.. And if u say all infections are all through sex as u said, then where do virgins get their infections from? Aliens or incubus? All these so-called researchers sef.. Even men do get toilet infections not to talk of women who are more prone becos of their biological makeup.. As a man who has stayed alot around women, i am fully aware of the FACT that they get infections from toilets especially through splashes when using a water-system toilet or are u saying in essence that the name should be changed to something else cos i dont get.. Pls get ur facts right abeg and stop misleading and confusing the public.. |

Just ask yourself how many people in the village who use pit toilet are complaining of the infection. I think the writer is right while your ignorance has been escalated. 1 Like 1 Share |

I am not a doctor. I actually studied parasitology. Here is the summary of this thread in my own "expertise" Many things can give u d itch. But most likely not from the toilet. Op mentioned 3 common infections Candida is not an sti or uti or toilet infection. U get candidaisis when the natural balance is tipped between the lactobacili (bacteria) and candida (fungus) who live in d vagina in an uneasy harmony. If you take antibiotics u will kill most of d lactobacili and then candida will proliferate and then u will itch like mad. This is candidiasis. Failing to wipe after peeing is also a bug culprit. Pls wipe with clean tissue paper cos if pee remains on ur panties, candida is yeast and it proliferate in such moist conditions. This is why they call it toilet infection. Cos y'all ladies dont wipe after peeing. Bacterial vaginosis is the reverse when the lactobacili is higher than candida. It can also be very annoying. If u poop and fail to wipe properly, u will get ecoli or staph or strep b bacteria into ur kitten which can upset ur balance. Hence the so called toilet infection. So babes, no be toilet infect you. What the heck, its not even an sti. It's just poor hygiene. So you need to step up the cleanliness. Also hormonal imbalance can mess up d vaginal environment. Especially pregnancy. For your info, the deadly stis don't even give signs. I mean them gono and chlamydia. They just breed silently and destroy stuff. If d woman is lucky she may present with PID and when they test, they see she has chronic gonorrhea or xhlamydia that never gave signs. It's only men that start showing symptoms. What about HPV that leads to cervical cancer? There's a lot of sht out there to worry about that do not itch. My qualification? BSc Parasitology with lab experience in medical microbiology. So all these big names we are calling, we played with them at one point in time. Also, how come no one has pointed out the Staph is not an STD? Staph is a normal flora of the human body and when we practice poor hygiene it can get into d vagina and become a nuisance? I stand to be corrected though 9 Likes |

[quote author=Piercedclit post=51436133] So you don't agree that splashes of water from inside the toilet can introduce bacteria in the vagina? Mild soap to wash inside the vagina abi? [/qluote] If toilet water splashed on u, ur vagina is not so accessible. The water has to pass thru public hair, then labia before it gets into ur vagina. What u shd do is wash ur labia with mild soap and clean water (not inside d vagina, that is douching and it can worsen d problem) then pat dry with tissue. Why u itch after toilet water touches u is that you don't clean up. You just pull up ur panties and wet them which provides s moisture Candida needs to become a nuisance. The toilet didn't infect you. Your panties did. 1 Like |

progress69:UTI is another kettle of fish. UTI infects the urethra and possibly the kidneys, not the vagina. Symptoms of UTI is painful and frequent urination. When I was 6 mths preg I had pyleonephritis, UTI that had gotten to my kidneys. The infection triggered premature labour... If not for God eh! It would have been another story. I was admitted, placed on antibiotics upon antibiotics for days and was drinking bottles and bottles of water to flush the kidneys, in addition to iv fluids. It was a race against time. UTI can be such a disaster if not treated early. |

naijaboy756: This guy is also right! There are Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urinary_tract_infection, they usually get confused as Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI). UTI's aare usually called water/toilet infections!? Why? Well because they are usually contracted via this method.....especially in cultures where the preference is to wash your ass with water after toilet, some of this faeces infected water remains on the toilet seat and can infect anyone who uses the same toilet later without cleaning the seat with disinfectant/antibacterial. |
