Does having a gynecological infection affect pregnancy?

Gynecological inflammation generally refers to vaginitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, vulvitis and endometritis. Generally mild gynecological inflammation will not affect pregnancy, while severe gynecological inflammation may affect pregnancy. In general, diseases such as vulvovaginitis and vaginal inflammation usually do not have much effect on pregnancy itself if the inflammation is mild. So women with mild gynecological inflammation can get pregnant, but pregnancy may result in miscarriage or preterm labor due to the inflammation.
