Abstrakt		Lower genital tract infections, e.g. vulvovaginitis, cervicitis and urethritis included are common, both in females, and males, in the reproductive period of life. They are source of further spread, and may lead to pelvic inflammatory disease. The symptoms and signs of lower genital tract infections, such as abnormal vaginal discharge, pruritus as well as coutaneous and mucous lesions, are not specific enough to establish the diagnosis. Therefore it is necessary to apply selectively relatively simple screening and confirmatory laboratory tests. A precise diagnosis of lower genital tract infections would improve early diagnosis of important STDs in the community, and would help in promoting management strategies for genital tract infections.
