Trichomonas, and the highest rate of infection with the vaginalis parasite (Trichomonasn.) was 47.8% in the age group (23-32) years, in addition to that, the highest infections were recorded in the city and the low economic level (60.9%) and (60.89%), respectively, and according to the months of the year The month of November recorded the highest infection rate (34.78%). The statistical analysis indicated that there were significant differences at the level of P<0.05.
