Out of total 510 processed samples 308 (60.39%) were of male samples and 202 (39.61) were of female samples. In the parasitological examination 47(23.27) female samples were positive and 60 (19.48%) male samples were positive. Among the parasites Entamoeba histolytica was observed in 29 cases. This constituted 5.69% of total processed sample and 27.105 of total parasites found.
