CONTEXT: Reproductive tract infections (RTI) occupy the second position among public health problems.
AIMS: To find out the prevalence of RTI and its associated conditions among ever married women in the reproductive age group (15-49 years).
SETTINGS AND DESIGN: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 330 women in a rural area of Poonamallee block at Thiruvallur district in Tamil Nadu from August 2013 to January 2014.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, the selection of participants was done through cluster sampling and data on symptoms by questionnaires.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: For descriptive prevalence, statistics was used. Using Chi-Square, categorical data were analyzed and using the odds ratio P value associations were assessed.
RESULTS: About 21% had anyone symptom of RTI. Occupation of women (OR2.0), occupation of spouse (OR1.9), anemia (OR 2.0), dysuria (OR51.5), burning micturition (OR15.9), frequency (OR3.3)/the urgency of urination (OR2.7), and incomplete urination (OR5.4)/defecation (OR3.6) were significantly associated with RTI. The prevalence rate of abnormal vaginal discharge was more (12%) than any other symptoms (each < 4%) of RTIs.
CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of RTI was high. Moreover, women with dysuria, burning micturition, incomplete urination/defecation, frequency/the urgency of urination, and anemia are at a higher risk of developing RTI.
