0.05). Patients with BV had significantly lower educational (p=0.006) and
socio-economic (p=0.021) levels. There was a direct statistically significant correlation between BV and
smoking (p=0.033). BV did not have any significant correlation with current marital status or parity
(p>0.05). The prevalence of BV was higher in patients who had a history of abortion than in women who did
not report such history, but the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.070). There was a
statistically significant association between lack of usage of contraceptive pills and BV (p=0.035). BV was
more prevalent in women who used IUDs than in other women (71.4% vs. 38.3%), though this difference did
not attain statistical significance (p=0.091). There were positive associations between occurrence of BV and
history of vaginal infection (p<0.001), history of preterm delivery (p<0.001), and history of PROM
(p=0.028). BV, the most common cause of vaginal discharge in women of childbearing age, is seen with a
relatively high frequency in our patients. This condition is associated with various obstetric and
gynecological complications. It is therefore necessary to perform screening and possibly treatment in highrisk
patients. ]]>
