title: [Mycoplasma infections in marital infertility].
abstract: Evaluation of 302 infertile married couples has identified Mycoplasma infection in 106 (35.5%) of women and 96 (31.8%) of men. The infection was associated primarily with cervical and endometrial abnormalities in the women and sperm abnormalities in the men. Tetracycline treatment resulted in clinical improvement both in the women and men. This study suggests Mycoplasma infection to be an etiological factor in infertile marriage.
