• W3040984971 abstract "Background: Vaginitis refers to any inflammation or infectionof the vagina. This is a common gynecological problem found in women of all ages,with one-third of women having at least one form of vaginitis at some timeduring their lives. The vagina is the muscular passageway between the uterusand the external genital area. When the walls of the vagina become inflamed,because some irritant has disturbed the balance of the vaginal area, vaginitiscan occur. The most common types of vaginitis are: Candida or “yeast”infection, Bacterial vaginosis, Trichomoniasis vaginitis. Objectives of Study: Therefore, the present study was carried out to determine the prevalence ofbacterial vaginosis (BV), vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) among married and unmarriedwomen and evaluate the association socio-demographic risk factors andsymptoms-related variables in women attending gynecology clinic in Hargeisagroup hospital. Methodology: A total of 150 married and unmarried womenwere investigated & diagnosed by a researcher inHargeisa Group Hospital, Hargeisa City, Somaliland for determining of VVI prevalence in the present study. Vaginalswabs from these patients were processed for detection of bacterial vaginosis(BV), VVC and trichomoniasis based on guidelines of management of vaginainfection. Species specific distribution of VVC was assessed by cultured of Candida on differential agar media, Germ tube test, rice meal agar and carbohydratesfermentation test and BV diagnosed by using gramstaining test and biochemical testes. The nurse interviewers performed acomprehensive review of patients and completed the standardized baselinequestionnaire containing information regarding the association socio-demographicrisk factors and symptoms-related. Results & Discussion: Thefindings of the present study indicate that VVC was the most prevalentinfection with 68 (45%) followed by BV 43 (29%). However, no case oftrichomoniasis was detected. Candida albicans was found to be the mostprevalent species with 47 (60.3%). Out of non-albicans Candida (NAC) species, C. tropicalis was found to be 9 (9.9%) and C. glabrata 7 (12.2%).On the other hand, the results of present study indicated that BV species Gardnerellavaginalis was most causative with 22 (19.5)and Lactobacillus spp. was 14 (9.3%). Theseresults were also confirmed by gram staining test and biochemical testes. WhenVVI was compared among married and unmarried women, VVC wasmore prevalent in married women 47 (31.96) while, BV was more prevalent in unmarried women with 32 (13.76), discussed these results detected that prevalentfound most highly with VVB and BV while, no case of trichomoniasis wasdetected. These findings are in consonance with various previous studies whichhave indicated VVC & BV to be the most prevalent in VI. Furthermore, thestudy showed statistical significant difference (P 0.005) & relationship among prevalence of VVV & BV and somesocio-demographic risk factors and some symptoms which havebeen identified as causes of variation in the prevalence rates of bacterialvaginosis & vagina candidasis. Conclusion: VVC was the mostprevalent VVI followed by BV in Hargeisa City. C. albicans was the mostprevalent species in VVC while among BV species, Gardnerella vaginalis was foundto occur at highest frequency. However, further studies are needed to assessspecific diagnosis and role of clinical risk factors. Urgent action is requiredto improve vagina infection control measures to reduce the prevalence and makenew policies for treatment of vagina infection in HGH." @default.
