Infertility and cervical Chlamydia trachomatis infections.
Of the 51 women examined for infertility, 19.6 per cent were found Chl. trachomatis culture-positive. This differs, although not significantly, from the 9 per cent isolation rate among our general gynecological outpatients. The results suggest that Chl. trachomatis should be considered in women with unexplained infertility.
