Salmonella enterica vulvovaginal infections
Salmonella enterica is a food-borne pathogen usually not associated with pelvic infections, however it has occured in the past.
Pseudomonas spp. urinary tract infections
Pseudomonas is a genus made up of a group of bacteria that are easy to study, because they grow in a wide range of conditions. The main vulvovaginal/urinary tract pathogen in this group is Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Propionibacterium acnes vulvovaginal infections
Propionibacterium acnes is found as a normal part of the microflora of the skin, eye, ear, mouth and upper respiratory tract, with occasional findings in the intestine, urinary tract, and vagina. P. acnes is commonly associated with acne lesions, and can cause infections around the body. Anyone with a device (implants, catheter)
Prevotella spp. in the vagina
Prevotella species are a group of bacteria that live in the mouth and vagina, and can cause infections, particularly in the gums, lungs, sinuses and ears, and wounds. Prevotella species associated with vulvovaginal or urogenital infections include:
Porphyromonas spp.
Porphyromonas is a genus known to have pathogenic and commensal species that create part of the salivary microbiome. Because the mouth and vagina share many characteristics, these bacteria may be found in the urogenital tract. Porphyromonas asaccharolytica Porphyromonas endodontalis Porphyromonas gingivalis
Mycobacterium spp. vulvovaginal and urinary tract infections
The genus Mycobacterium has over 190 species within it, with many serious human pathogens. We cover only a fraction of these in this database, since most do not cause vulvovaginal or urinary tract infections in humans (that we are aware of, yet). Mycobacterium smegmatis Mycobacterium tuberculosis Mycobacterium are slow growing,
Streptococcus mitis vulvovaginal infections
S. mitis is usually a commensal of the mouth, but can be passed to the vagina during oral sex given by someone with gum disease.
Granulicatella elegans vulvovaginal infection
Granulicatella elegans is an uncommon human infection that is most commonly associated with heart infections (endocarditis). Vulvovaginal infections are rare, as are urinary tract infections, caused by Granulicatella elegans.
Streptococcus pneumoniae vulvovaginal infections
Streptococcus pneumoniae can cause very serious gynaecological infections in women, however this is rare.
Finegoldia magna vulvovaginal infections
F. magna is a known vaginal pathogen causing bacterial vaginosis and other symptoms, though it can also be a commensal.
