In prepubertal and pubertal girls, vulvovaginitis is a common and difficult gynaecological condition. If a vaginal culture is required for additional inquiry into a vaginal infection that is not responding to hygienic measures due to one of the many possible aetiologies, treatment should be customised.
The goal of this study was to look at the pathogens found in prepubertal and pubertal girls who had vulvovaginitis symptoms and signs. Children with vulvovaginitis should use caution while evaluating culture results. Girls in late puberty were more prone to bacterial vaginosis and vulvovaginal candidiasis, whereas opportunistic bacteria of faecal origin were the most prevalent isolated pathogens in prepubertal girls
