Background.
Malaria and urogenital schistosomiasis are coendemic in Mount Cameroon Area.
This study investigated the prevalence of S.
haematobium, P.
falciparum, and coinfections and their effect on anaemia in pregnancy.
Methods.
Pregnant women reporting for antenatal care (ANC) clinic visit in Munyenge were enrolled.
S.
haematobium and P.
falciparum infections were determined by urine filtration and microscopy, respectively.
Haemoglobin (Hb) levels were measured using haemoglobinometer.
Of 250 women, 46.8%, 39.2%, and 15.2% had S.
haematobium, P.
falciparum, and coinfections, respectively.
Schistosomes infection was higher in younger women (≤25 years) and those who bathe in and had domestic contact with stream compared with older age (>25 years) women and those who had only domestic contact with stream.
Lower infection rate was associated with less water contact (≤2 times/day) compared with more water contact (>2 times/day).
Compared with no sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) usage, malaria parasitaemia was less among women who used SP.
Stream usage increased risk of coinfection while less water contact and SP usage decreased its risk.
All coinfected cases were anaemic and coinfection accounted for 93.8% of severe anaemia.
Conclusion.
Coinfection contributes to anaemia severity.
Less water contact and SP usage will reduce coinfection in pregnancy in Munyenge.
