General & Family Physician,  's  Response
As such vaginal infection may occur due to 2 reasons mainly. one is called STD(sexually transmitted diseases) and second is PID (pelvic inflammatory diseases). here in ur case it may be PID as u are not sexually active at present. The causes for PID is mainly due to unhygienic practices for pelvic reason. e.g. touching pelvic region with infected hand, not maintain hygine after micturation/ after or during mensis period. so in future u should maintain hygine of pelvic region and at present u should consult gynec dr. for antibiotics for absess,,,,,
