ABSTRACT
AIM:
The aim of this study was to identify the incidence and risk factors of bacterial vaginosis among pregnant women. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
Prospective data from a cohort of 668 pregnant women were used to identify potential risk factors for bacterial vaginosis during pregnancy by Cox proportional hazards regression.RESULTS:
A total of 204 incident cases of bacterial vaginosis were diagnosed in 274.8 woman-years of follow-up. The bacterial vaginosis incidence rate was 0.74 per 1 woman-year and median prevalence during follow-up was 15.6%. In the adjusted model, changing underwear nearly everyday, miscarriage history, urinary tract infection during follow-up, husbands' education level, and concurrent trichomoniasis and candidiasis remained significantly associated with bacterial vaginosis (adjusted hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval were 1.87 [1.26-2.77]; 2.96 [1.96-4.47]; 2.41 [1.05-5.49]; 0.50 [0.32-0.77]; 1.82 [1.02-3.25]; 1.88 [1.30-2.70], respectively).CONCLUSION:
Bacterial vaginosis during pregnancy can be affected by many factors, and some are indirectly acting factors. Further prospective studies that include a larger sample size and more information on the development of bacterial vaginosis are needed.Palabras clave
