Characteristics of patients with mixed vaginitis
Compared with women in normal group and women in corresponding single vaginitis group, women in AV+BV group, VVC+BV group, VVC+AV group, and total mixed vaginitis group have no significant differences in age, educational level, gravidity, parity, and number of sexual partners (P >0.05)(Table 1).
The positive rate of glucose tolerance test (25% vs. 11.5%) and the incidence of vaginitis history during pregnancy (25% vs. 10.1%) in women of mixed vaginitis group was higher than that in women of normal group(P <0.05).
The positive rate of glucose tolerance test (45.5% vs. 11.5%), incidence of vaginitis history during pregnancy (45.5% vs.10.1%), and incidence of intercourse during pregnancy (72.7%vs. 35%) in women of VVC+BV group was higher than that in women of normal group(P <0.05). The positive rate of glucose tolerance test in women of VVC+BV group was higher than that in women of BV group (45.5% vs. 9.5%; P <0.05). The incidence of intercourse during pregnancy in women of VVC+BV group was higher than that in women of VVC group (72.7% vs. 33%; P <0.05).
The history of reproductive tract infection before pregnancy in women of VVC+AV group was higher than that in women of VVC group (75% vs.31.8%), AV group (75% vs. 29%) and normal group (75%vs. 24.5%) (P <0.05).
