Abstract
Among patients attending an inner-city colposcopy clinic, the prevalence of Chlamydia trachomatis was 22/375 (5.0%), Neisseria gonorrhoeae, 3/375 (0.8%), and seropositivity for syphilis, 10/375 (2.7%). In addition, 13/261 (5.0%) of asymptomatic women agreeing to voluntary human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) antibody screening were HIV-1 seropositive. Our data support incorporating screening for and education on sexually transmitted diseases and HIV into the work of our colposcopy clinic.
