摘要
Abstract Objective. This study evaluated the prevalence of Ureaplasma spp. and Mycoplasma hominis and their association with genital disorders (bacterial vaginosis, aerobic vaginitis, and vulvovaginal candidiasis). Methods . The IST2 kit identified genital mycoplasmas. Nugent score and microscopic observation of neutrophils and bacteria served to diagnose bacterial vaginosis and aerobic vaginitis. Chi-square or Fisher’s exact test served for statistical analysis. Results. The prevalence of M. hominis and Ureaplasma spp. was estimated at 2% and 41%, respectively, and Ureaplasma spp./M. hominis was 32%. The prevalence of BV, VVC, and AV was de 68%, 35%, and 54%, respectively. Group B Streptococcus (P=0.006, OR=0.41, 95% CI=0.22–0.77) (P=0.002, OR=0.30, 95% CI=0.14–0.63) was not associated with M. hominis, Ureaplasma spp. / M. hominis respectively. Conclusion . This study reports a high prevalence of genital mycoplasmas . VVC, AV, and BV were frequently encountered, but the association with genital mycoplasmas was not statistically significant.
