The human body is the host of microbes, and the relationship between microbes and hosts is mutually beneficial and symbiotic, forming another system of the human body-the human microecosystem. The vaginal microecology is part of the human microecology.The study of the structure and function of microbes in the health and disease states of women's vagina and their relationship with their hosts is an important part of life science. This book collects a large number of microbial pictures under normal and diseased conditions in gynecology, including general pictures of human diseases, Gram staining pictures, electron microscope pictures, etc., combined with different physiological and pathological conditions, the discussion from basic research to clinical practice is super scientific and practical.

The writing of this book was supported by academician Jiahong Dong, dean of Tsinghua University School of Medicine and Dean of Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital. After the book was written, academician Jiahong Dong, academician Jie Qiao, the reproductive medicine specialist and the dean of the Peking University Third Hospital, academician Lanjuan Li, the infectious disease scientist, professor Buck, the top experts in the field of female microecology research in the United States and the director of microbiology, immunology and computer science of University of Virginia, make preface recommendations for this book.
