Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in vaginal washing fluid (VWF) in women with a history of recurrent and/or treatment resistant vaginitis. Methods: This prospective case control study was conducted in the gynecology clinic of the current hospital. A total of 64 women (33 with a history of recurrent and/ or treatment resistant vaginitis as study group and 31 healthy women as control group) were enrolled in the study. The recorded parameters were; age, presenting symptom, educational level, socioeconomic status, frequency of vaginal douching (VD), peripheral blood leukocyte count, CRP levels in VWF, vaginal culture, fresh vaginal smear and urinalysis. Results: The study group had statistically significantly lower educational level and socioeconomic status than the control group (p<0.05). The mean levels of peripheral blood leukocyte count and leukocyte count on the fresh vaginal smear, leukocyturia and VWF CRP levels were statistically significantly higher in the study group (p<0.05). In patients who had ≥ 3 times a week VD had also statistically significantly higher VWF CRP levels (p=0.012). Conclusion: According to this study, recurrent and/or treatment resistant vaginitis is more common in women who have lower socioeconomic status/educational level and who perform more frequently VD, and VWF CRP levels may be a good marker for the diagnosis of disease.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı tekrarlayan ve/veya tedaviye dirençli vajinit öyküsü olan olgularda vajinal yıkama sıvısı C-reaktif protein (CRP) düzeylerinin değerlendirilmesidir.Yöntemler: Bu prospektif vaka kontrollü çalışma hastanemizin jinekoloji kliniğinde yapılmıştır. Toplam 64 kadın (33 tekrarlayan ve/veya tedaviye dirençli vajinit öyküsü olan kadın çalışma grubu ve 31 sağlıklı kadın kontrol grubu) çalışmaya dâhil edilmiştir. Kaydedilen parametreler; yaş, başvuru şikâyeti, eğitim düzeyi, sosyoekonomik durum, vajinal duş (VD) sıklığı, periferik kan lökosit sayısı, vajinal sıvı CRP düzeyi, vajinal kültür, taze vajinal yayma ve idrar tetkikidir.Bulgular: Çalışma grubu istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde daha düşük eğitim düzeyi ve sosyoekonomik duruma sahipti (p<0,05). Periferik kanda ve taze vajinal sürüntüdeki ortalama lökosit sayısı, lökositüri ve vajinal yıkama sıvısı CRP düzeyleri çalışma grubunda istatistiksel anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti (p<0,05). Ayrıca haftada ≥ 3 kez VD yapanlarda vajinal yıkama sıvısı CRP düzeyleri istatistiksel olarak anlamlı yüksekti (p=0,012). Sonuç: Bu çalışmaya göre düşük sosyoekonomik durumu olan ve sık VD yapan kadınlarda tekrarlayan ve/veya tedaviye dirençli vajinit daha sık görülürken, bu hastalığın tanısında vajinal yıkama sıvısı CRP düzeyleri iyi bir belirteç olabilir
