Statistics by Country for Bacterial vaginosis
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Bacterial vaginosis:
These statistics are calculated extrapolations of various prevalence or incidence rates
against the populations of a particular country or region.
The statistics used for prevalence/incidence of Bacterial vaginosis are typically based on US, UK, Canadian or Australian statistics.
This extrapolation calculation is automated and does not take into account any genetic, cultural, environmental, social, racial or other differences
across the various countries and regions for which the extrapolated Bacterial vaginosis statistics below refer to.
As such, these extrapolations may be highly inaccurate (especially for developing or third-world countries) and only give a general indication (or even a meaningless indication)
as to the actual prevalence or incidence of Bacterial vaginosis in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Bacterial vaginosis: The word 'prevalence' of Bacterial vaginosis usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Bacterial vaginosis at any given time (i.e. people with Bacterial vaginosis). The term 'incidence' of Bacterial vaginosis means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Bacterial vaginosis diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Bacterial vaginosis). Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence. For more information see about prevalence and incidence statistics. |
Prevalance of Bacterial vaginosis: 16% of pregnant women (DSTD)
Prevalance Rate for Bacterial vaginosis: approx 1 in 424 or 0.24% or 640,000 people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Prevalence Rate of Bacterial vaginosis to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above prevalence rate for Bacterial vaginosis to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these prevalence extrapolations for Bacterial vaginosis are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual prevalence of Bacterial vaginosis in any region:
