    Cervicovaginal infections affect the overall health of women. During pregnancy, these infections are a risk factor for severe complications for both the mother and the fetus. The objective of the study was to perform a comparative analysis of cervicovaginal infections through the Pap smear in pregnant and non-pregnant patients. A quantitative, observational, and comparative descriptive research design was developed, including a sample of 826 reports of cervical smears from pregnant (n=413) and non-pregnant (n=413) patients at the National Hospital Madre Niño San Bartolomé. The study found a prevalence of 26.9% of bacterial vaginosis, 11.7% identified Candida spp., 2.1% showed cellular changes compatible with HPV, 1% found Trichomonas vaginalis, and 0.2% exhibited cellular changes compatible with herpes simplex. The research showed significant differences in cervicovaginal infections between pregnant and non-pregnant patients (p=0.001). When evaluating each infection, no significant differences were observed with human papillomavirus infection (p=0.462), herpes simplex virus (p=0.157), Candida spp. (p=0.066), and Trichomonas vaginalis (p=0.477) in pregnant and non-pregnant patients. However, significant differences were demonstrated in bacterial vaginosis infection between pregnant and non-pregnant patients (p=0.003). The study concluded that there are significant differences in cervicovaginal infections, specifically when analyzing bacterial vaginosis, between pregnant and non-pregnant patients at the National Hospital Madre Niño San Bartolomé.
