Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)

Streptococcus morbillorum vulvovaginal infections

Streptococcus mutans vulvovaginal infections

S. mutans is most often found in the mouth, causing dental plaque (biofilm) and dental caries.

Streptococcus pyogenes (Group A Strep) vulvovaginal infections

Group A Strep – Streptococcus pyogenes – can cause respiratory, skin, vagina and urinary tract infections.

Streptococcus sanguinis (sanguis) vulvovaginal infections

Streptococcus sanguinis is a normal feature of the human mouth, where this bacteria is found in dental plaque. S. sanguinis actually makes the mouth a healthier place, since it competes with other strains of Streptococcus that cause dental cavities. S. sanguinis may colonise and infect other areas of the body, particularly heart valves after heart

Histoplasma capsulatum vulvovaginal infection

Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) Type 2 (Genital Herpes)

Commonly associated with genital herpes, but can appear as coldsores and in other areas.

Streptococcus vestibularis vulvovaginal infections

S. vestibularis can be found in the vagina, but is not associated with vulvovaginal infections, though can rarely cause human infection.

Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) Type 1 (Cold Sores)

HSV1 is typically associated with mouth cold sores, but it can just as easily inhabit the genitals and cause genital herpes.

Hepatitis B

Transmissable human pathogen, affects the liver

Tannerella forsythia vulvovaginal infections

Helicobacter pylori vulvovaginal infections

Helicobacter pylori is most commonly associated with stomach ulcers, but it can affect other areas of the body like the vagina, urinary tract, and mouth.

Gemella asaccharolytica vulvovaginal infections

Isolated from the human vagina. Found primarily in mucous membranes of mammals, including humans, particularly in the mouth and upper digestive tract. Found occasionally in heart infections. ​1​ Gemellus = geminus (Latin for twin) = because this species are dicoccus meaning two cocci. Gemella asaccharolytica is related to bacterial vaginosis.

Treponema denticola vulvovaginal infections

Fusobacterium nucleatum vulvovaginal infections

Fusobacterium nucleatum can cause inflammation in cells, uterine infections, bacterial vaginosis, urinary tract infections, contributes to preterm birth, but conversely can be part of the healthy placenta flora.

Eubacterium spp. vulvovaginal infections

Eubacterium spp. contains anaerobic, non-spore-forming, gram-positive rods, rigid cell wall, motile or nonmotile, with several negative metabolic characteristics. Eubacterium is the second most common genus after the genus Bacteroides in the human intestine, being more common than the genus Bifidobacterium. The genus has important gut species. Eubacterium species identification is typically based on phenotypic traits and requires experience and is time-consuming, thus

Klebsiella aerogenes (formerly Enterobacter aerogenes) vulvovaginal and urinary tract infections

Klebsiella aerogenes is an opportunistic pathogenic bacteria that is susceptible to most antibiotics but is also quick to develop resistance. Naturally found in the human digestive tract, K. aerogenes doesn’t always cause infection in healthy people and can be a normal part of commensal flora. The growth and virility of this bacteria is highly variable
