Description
The microbiology of genital system depends on the male genital system and female genital system.The microbiology of the female genital system involves a complex interplay between normal (commensal) microbial flora, potential pathogens, and the host immune system. Understanding this microbiology is essential for diagnosing and managing infections, maintaining reproductive health, and preventing complications such as infertility and pregnancy-related issues. Normal Microbiota of the Female Genital TractThe vagina has a dynamic and diverse microbial environment, influenced by factors like age, hormonal changes, menstruation, sexual activity, and antibiotic use.Lactobacillus species (dominant in healthy women)Produce lactic acid, which maintains a low vaginal pH (~3.5–4.5), inhibiting pathogen growth.Produce hydrogen peroxide and bacteriocins antimicrobial peptidesKey species:Lactobacillus crispatusLactobacillus jenseniiLactobacillus gasseriLactobacillus inersOther Commensals (in smaller numbers)Gardnerella vaginalisAtopobium vaginaePrevotella spp.Mobiluncus spp.Bacteroides spp.Candida albicans (can become pathogenic under certain conditions) Pathogens of the Female Genital SystemBacterial InfectionsBacterial Vaginosis (BV)Caused by: Gardnerella vaginalis, Atopobium vaginae, anaerobesCharacterized by a shift away from Lactobacilli.Symptoms: thin gray discharge, fishy odor (esp. after intercourse)Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)Polymicrobial; often due to Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Chlamydia trachomatis, anaerobesAffects uterus, fallopian tubes, ovariesSexually Transmitted Infections (STIs)Chlamydia trachomatis → cervicitis, PIDNeisseria gonorrhoeae → gonorrheaTreponema pallidum → syphilisHaemophilus ducreyi → chancroidMycoplasma genitaliu
