Hidden infection in migrant women: new study seeks answers

This study aims to find out how common female genital schistosomiasis (FGS) is among migrant women aged 15-49 who have gynecological symptoms and come from countries where the parasite is found. Researchers will use vaginal swabs and PCR tests to detect the infection, which is not part of standard care. The goal is to better understand FGS and improve diagnosis in this group.
