The age-related increase in the prevalence of bacterial vaginosis was determined in adolescent virginal and sexually active girls aged 13 to 18 years. Higher rates were recorded for girls with two or more sexual partners. Considering the potential spectrum of consequences of bacterial vaginosis, preventive strategies are required in this age group, not only for bacterial vaginosis but also for other sexually transmitted diseases.
