Abstract

 Background: Trichomonas vaginalis is one of the most important parasites transmitted through sexual contact. Therefore, it is considered a major public health problem. Best to our knowledge, there are no new reports about the prevalence of T. vaginalis in Bandar Abbas. Objectives: The present study aimed to determine the Frequency of T. vaginalis in women referred to the urban and rural health centers of Bandar Abbas, Iran. In addition, other risk factors associated with this parasite were investigated. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional studywasconducted between October 2017andJune 2018. Fivehundredsamples obtained from vaginal discharges or fluid were examined using wet mount and culture in Diamond medium. Moreover, the demographic data and related risk factors were gathered as a questionnaire. To analyze the data, SPSS ver. 20 was used and the statistical tests of chi-square and Fisher’ s exact were applied. Results: In this study, T. vaginaliswasdetected in 13 (2. 6%) out of 500samples of the vaginal discharges or fluids inwhich 12 (2. 4%)were detected by wet mount and 13 (2. 6%) by culture method, respectively. A significant difference was observed between the incidence of the parasite and place of residence, the level of education, and abortion.
