OBJECTIVE--To determine risk factors for syphilis and sexually
transmitted disease (STD) syndromes, and to study health seeking
behaviour among those with STD syndromes, in the population of Mwanza
Region, North-Western Tanzania. METHODS--A population-based random
cluster sample survey, stratified by rural, roadside or urban residence,
of 4173 individuals aged 15-54 years was performed in 1990-91. The
seroprevalence of syphilis and the prevalence and incidence of self-reported
genital ulcer syndrome (GUS) and genital discharge syndrome (GDS)
are reported in the accompanying paper. This paper reports on risk
factors for these conditions and on health seeking behaviour among
those reporting them. RESULTS--In both sexes, the risk of STDs increased
with the reported number of sexual partners in the previous five
years. Men who were separated, divorced or widowed were at increased
risk of STDs, but this was not the case among women. Higher educational
status was associated with an increased risk of urethral discharge
in males but with a decreased prevalence of syphilis in females.
Male circumcision was associated with an increased risk of urethral
discharge but a reduced prevalence of syphilis. Nearly all men,
and 90% of women, reporting symptoms of genital discharge or ulceration
had sought treatment. Of these, approximately 70% of males and 60%
of females had sought treatment in the official health sector. CONCLUSIONS--Targetted
health education concerning risk reduction for HIV infection and
other STDs should be a high priority in this population. Improved
case management of STDs in health centres and dispensaries may have
a substantial impact on the incidence of these infections.
