Background: Bacterial vaginosis is the most prevalent lower genital tract infection in women of reproductive age. The aim of this study was to identify the causative organism in patients with vaginal discharge and to study the sensitivity of the organism to antibiotics.Methods: This was a hospital based prospective study in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in a tertiary care hospital over a period of two years. 2062 women with complaints of vaginal discharge were subjected to a high vaginal swab and the sample was cultured, the organisms were identified and antibiotic susceptibility was tested.Results: There was no growth found in 40.7% of patients. E. coli was found to be the most common organism isolated followed by Klebsiella pneumonia and Klebsiella oxytoca. Candida species was isolated in 1.4 % of women. An increased frequency of vaginal infection was found in the age group 26-35 years, followed by age group 36-45 years. 73.2% of the organisms were sensitive to Imipenam, 70.4 % to Amikacin and 65.7% to Gentamycin. There were 10 MRSA strains isolated all of which were sensitive to Vancomycin, Amikacin and Gentamycin.Conclusions: Our study provides information about the different microorganisms present in women with vaginal discharge. Since pathogenic bacteria were more common than Candida species it is recommended to offer treatment to patients after taking a high vaginal swab. Appropriate antibiotics based on culture and sensitivity has to be given along with antifungal agents.

Background: Vaginal discharge in reproductive age poses a serious problem in the developing countries. Bacterial vaginosis also known as non-specific vaginitis is the most common cause of vaginal infections, detecting the organism at an early stage and initiating a proper treatment is very difficult in our country due to lack of awareness and proper follow-up. The disease manifests in the form of vaginal discharge with or without itching. It has a strong association with preterm labor, preterm premature rupture of membranes and low birth weight in pregnancy. The objective of this study was to find out the prevalence of bacterial vaginosis among the reproductive age group women, in a tertiary care centre.Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted among 150 women of the reproductive age group in the department of obstetrics and gynaecology Sree Mookambika Institute of Medical Sciences over a period of one month October 2018 the diagnosis was made with history and nugents scoring system.Results: Out of the total 150 women enrolled in the study 74 had positive results, 50% of them were of the age group 26-30.Conclusions: The study shows us the high prevalence of bacterial vaginosis.

Introduction: Anaemia is prevalent clinical condition in both developing and developed countries so it needs constant evaluation. As morphological study of red blood cell is initial and cheep tool for approach to causative factors here is an attempt to evaluate morphological distribution of anaemia. Aims and objectives: 1-To study distribution of anaemia in different age and sex category. 2-To determine morphological pattern of anaemia in all age groups. Material and Methods: A total of 752 anaemic samples were studied by peripheral smear examination, Samples were also run in automated cell counter to nd red cell parameters WHO Criteria were used as cut off for haemoglobin concentration Results: Among Seven hundred fty two cases , paediatric age group include 92 cases (12.23%), adult male aged 12 to 65 years include 160 patients (21.27%) , adult female aged 12 to 65 years was 476 ( 63.29%) and elderly patients more than 65 years was 24 (3.19%).Among all 752 cases 311 patients (41.3%) were having microcytic hypochromic anaemia Conclusion: To conclude in our study maximum numbers of cases are observed in adult females in reproductive age group. In both adult females and children maximum number of cases is having microcytic hypochromic anaemia due to iron deciency. So it is important to focus on screening, early dietary modication and supplemental therapy to reduce anaemia prevalence in the developing and developed countries.

Genital prolapse is a sort of epidemic and is registered today in 30% to 56% of women of both reproductive and menopausal ages. Until now, the initial stages of prolapse were not taken into account; as a rule, the correction began immediately with surgical treatment, the results of which were not always satisfactory, and the recurrence rate with plastic correction with one’s own tissues ranged from 37 to 45%. One of the main manifestations of prolapse of the vaginal walls, especially n perimenopause, is vulvovaginal mucosal atrophy, which directly depends on the pH in the vagina. The study is devoted to the analysis of the effectiveness of using neodymium laser to improve the condition of the vaginal mucosa in women of different age groups with initial degrees of genital prolapse. Purpose: scientific substantiation of using neodymium laser in patients of different age groups with grade I–II cysto-rectocele. Material and research methods. Studies were carried out in 69 women aged 31 to 52 years with cysto-rectocele of grade I–II (ICD-10 code N81.6), with the duration of the disease from 4 to 15 years. All patients, depending on their age and the method of treatment used, were divided into 2 groups comparable in terms of clinical and functional characteristics — the main and control groups, each of which had 2 subgroups. In the main group: subgroup 1 included 27 patients of reproductive age with grade I–II cysto-rectocele, who underwent a neodymium laser course with Magic Gyno, consisting of 3 intravaginal procedures with an interval of 28 days; subgroup 2 included 22 patients of perimenopausal and menopausal age with grade I–II cysto-rectocele, who underwent a course of 3 intravaginal procedures with Magic Gyno neodymium laser with an interval of 28 days. The control group included 20 patients with grade I–II cysto-rectocele, who underwent a special complex of exercise therapy; depending on their age, they were also divided into two subgroups: 1 (10 patients) — of reproductive age, 2 (10 patients) — of perimenopausal and menopausal age. The results obtained indicate a pronounced effect of the course application of intravaginal exposure by a neodymium laser on the state of the vulvovaginal mucosa in patients with grade I–II cysto-rectocele, of both reproductive and, most importantly, peri-menopausal age, which was manifested in the normalization of the pH of vaginal discharge and elimination of signs of atrophy of the mucous membrane of the vulva and vagina and was confirmed by the data of pH-metry and the Vaginal Health Index Score. Conclusion. The course use of a neodymium laser in patients of different age groups with grade I–II cysto-rectocele contributes to the formation of a pronounced tropho-stimulating effect, which is manifested in the normalization of the pH of the vaginal discharge and the elimination of signs of atrophy of the mucous membrane of the vulva and vagina.

In women of reproductive age, vaginal discharge is one of the most frequent signs. Vaginal discharge may be physiological or pathological; thus, this study was conducted to ascertain the microbial diversity of vaginal discharge cases in relation to socioeconomic status and demographic history among women of reproductive age attending a tertiary care hospital. To diagnose the organism, simple wet laboratory preparation, 10% KOH, Gram staining, and pH paper were used, while to classify and categorise the pathogens, various differential agar media such as CHROM agar, Blood agar, and Sabouraud Dextrose agar were used, followed by some biochemical tests and the use of the Nugent Score. The majority of the patients were between the ages of 22 and 28. The patients were all from the lower middle class 41. (37.61 percent ). Microbial diagnosis revealed that 45 percent of patients had Bacterial Vaginosis, 41 percent had Candidiasis, 5% had Trichomoniasis, and 9% had both Bacterial Vaginosis and Candidiasis..

Cervical erosion is a most common condition seen in women of reproductive age groups. Its prevalence is between 50-85% of all the gynecological conditions. In modern system of medicine diathermy cauterization or cryosurgery are generally advised for treatment but these procedures have their own side effects and complications like excessive vaginal discharge, secondary infertility, bleeding per vagina, infection, stenosis etc.. So still it is one of the most troublesome diseases for patients as well as for gynaecologists. Due to the serious consequences of the disease it is the need of hour to develop an accurate therapy for pathological erosion. This is an attempt to throw some more light on the clinical studies on cervical erosion. On cervical erosion total eight clinical studies in PG level has been completed out at National Institute of Ayurveda, Jaipur. Out of eight clinical studies, five works on Kshara Karma Karma (application of caustics), two works on Agnikarma (cauterization), two works on Kushthadi churna, one work on kushthadi varti, one work on Virechana. The drugs and procedures used in the research studies have chedana, Bhedan, Sosahana, Lekhana, Shodhana, Shothaghna, Raktprasadana, Vrana Shodhana (ulcer cleansing), Vrana Ropana (ulcer healer), krimihara, Kushtaghna (anti-dermatosis), Kandughna (anti-pruritic) properties. Maximum studies are carried out on Bahya Parimarjana (external application).

ABSTRACT Background Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is highly prevalent among women especially in reproductive age group but it is found also in other age groups. Bacterial vaginosis is a great health concern in India because of its complications. Most of the healthcare centers in India are not well-versed in advance diagnostics for BV. Aim To assess the utility of conventional methods for diagnostic evaluation of BV in the patients of different age groups. Materials and methods In this 1 year cross-sectional study, the vaginal swabs were collected from women with signs and symptoms of BV like complaints of vaginal discharge, odor, itching, back ache, etc. attending the department of obstetrics and gynecology of a tertiary care hospital in Western UP. These specimens are subjected to vaginal pH determination and are sent to department of microbiology for Gram stain, wet-mount and whiff test. Amsel's criteria were used for confirming BV. Results A total of 206 women included in the study, n = 63 (29.61%) were found to be having BV based on Amsel's criteria. The mean age of the females were found to be 30.77 years. The most affected age group was found to be 26 to 35 years, n = 33 (54%). The vaginal pH was significantly higher in n = 61 (29.61%) women with BV. Vaginal discharge was prevalent in n = 108 (52.43%) women. Presence of clue cells and positive whiff test were found to be in n = 63 (30.58%) and n = 61(29.61%). Conclusion The characteristics of vaginal discharge, vaginal pH determination, clue cells and whiff test is relatively easier conventional methods for diagnosis of women with BV where better facilities are lacking. These tests are suitable for screening women with BV and in formulating the treatment to check the complications. How to cite this article Mishra PP, Prakash V, Agrawal L, Premi HK.
