A member asked:
What is the reason for the development of the vaginal superinfection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Reduced protection: A superinfection is one that occurs as a result of, and in addition to, some initial infection. Some bacteria are present in the vagina but cannot cause an infection unless there is already a breakdown in your normal defenses, such as that when you develop some other infection.
