Abstract: Mixed cervicovaginal infection and mixed vaginitis are two common mixed infections of female low genital tract. Mixed vagintis accounts for 20%~40% of all vaginitis. The clinical presentations of mixed infections of low genital tract are often nonspecific. A detailed history taken,careful gynaecological examination and microecological examination help to accurate diagnosis. Combined usage of multiple antimicrobial agents are the recommended treatment. The pathogenesis of mixed infections of low genital tract and the application of probiotics warrants further studies.
