Several epidemiologic studies have been conducted in Bangladesh reporting the prevalence of GU infections in different populations [2-15]. Genital tract infections, particularly sexually transmitted infections are common among urban and high risk populations, i.e. commercial sex workers. In rural Bangladesh, the burden of diseases associated with bacterial vaginosis (BV) (5.9-18.9%) [3, 4] and asymptomatic bactiuria (12%) are high [12]. In urban areas, mostly Dhaka, the prevalence of BV is higher; one study reported a prevalence of 28% [8]. There is no known data on the prevalence of intermediate vaginal flora in Bangladesh. The prevalence of sexually transmitted infections including Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, Trichomonas and Syphilis are high among high risk urban populations of Bangladesh but generally low in rural areas. Given these prevalence data, we postulate that among pregnant women of rural Sylhet district in Bangladesh, BV and UTI are the most prevalent GU infections.
