In the overwhelming majority of cases, worms in the vagina are pinworms who have lost their way.

Typically pinworm will end up in the vagina when pinworm eggs hatch on the skin of a girl, and the larvae crawl to the vagina. In fact, this can happen in about 20% of cases where a girl has pinworm. The good news is that pinworms in the vagina will usually die out on their own.
