Information was collected based on descriptive statistics with the support of the AS400 system. Results: In relation to the clinical criteria, the vaginal infection that occurs in 60 patients, which is equivalent to 52%, is bacterial vaginosis, with gardnella vaginalis being the most prevalent pathogen, in 35 patients, which is equivalent to 31% vaginal candidiasis, in 20 women. which is equivalent to (17%) Vaginal Trichomoniasis. The age group with the highest prevalence rate is patients between 18-25 years. The pathogen that predominates when analyzing the results of the Papanicolaou is lactobacillus with 73% corresponding to 84 patients. Conclusions: It is concluded that the infections that were produced by bacterial agents, especially vaginal gardenella, showed a worse prognosis with respect to clinical evolution, Candida albicans had a milder behavior compared to its parasitic or bacterial analogs.
