Bacterial vaginosis is one of the very important vaginal infections with which women report in OPD.Women with BV are at an increased risk for sexually transmitted infections such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, trichomoniasis, urinary tract infection, pelvic inflammatory disease, and adverse pregnancy outcomes that include preterm birth. Thus, the study wasconductedinatertiarycarehospitaltounderstandthecorrelationbetween bacterial vaginosis and obesity and to prevent future gynecological complications in obese women.A total of 120 women of reproductive age group between 18-45 years and sexually active were enrolled in the study. Their mean age in completed years was 35.95 ± 7.17 years with the youngest woman being 20 years old and the eldest being 48 years old. It was observed thattheindividualwhodoes not have bacterial vaginosis has 3.22timestheodds to be not obese. This finding was statistically significant(p=0.002).It was found that the women who had some complications were at 7 times higher odds of being obese as compared to being not obese.A total of 81 study subjects presented with negative Amsel’s criteria, out of which 29 showed the presence of bacterial vaginosis while the other 52 did not. It was concluded that bacterial vaginosis is associated with the oddsof beingfrom the Obesegroupofwomenas compared tothe non-obese women.Moreover, the Nugent score which is a gram-stain-basedcriterion for diagnosis can be preferred over Amsel’s criteria for BacterialVaginosis.
