Bacterial vaginal infections in diabetic and non-diabetic women
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Vaginal infection is a common disease of women. After 40 years, there is a fall in estrogen production. An estrogen deficient vagina as well as the immunocompromised status due to diabetes can lead to growth of abnormal flora which may in turn lead to infections. Bacterial vaginal infections are often least understood and empirical antifungal therapy for any vaginal infection without high vaginal swab culture is still in practice. The aim of the study is to analyze the prevalence of bacterial vaginal infections in diabetic and non-diabetic women.
