Trichomonas vaginalis Infection and Associated Risk Factors in a Socially-Marginalized Female Population in Coastal Peru
Infectious Diseases in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 06/30/09
Leon SR et al. - The authors found a moderately high prevalence of T. vaginalis infection among socially-marginalized young women from low-income communities in coastal Peru. T. vaginalis infection occurred more often among older women, women who had not completed high school, single women, women who reported unprotected sex with a nonsteady partner, and women who reported multiple sex partners. No association was found between any vaginal symptoms and T. vaginalis.
