Apart from the incomparable joys of bringing life to earth, pain is perhaps another thing that comes to our mind when we think of pregnancy. The thoughts of a painful labor and delivery have always been plaguing mothers everywhere. But these days we hear of pain-free deliveries and pregnancy experiences and we can safely assume that it is epidural that they are all talking about. Almost two-thirds of women are now opting for an epidural for labor and delivery, if they choose to deliver in a hospital setting whether it’s vaginal or c-section delivery.

When there is an imbalance in the normal levels of vaginal bacteria, it can lead to an inflammation or an infection of the Vagina called Vaginitis. This infectious vaginitis can result in discharge, itching and pain. But when there is a vaginal irritation without an infection is what is called Non-infectious Vaginitis.
