title: [Immunologic reactions in the male and female reproductive system].
abstract: This review describes presence and significance of antisperm antibodies (ASA) in male and female reproductive compartments. We described their relevance to infertility in humans. A structure and function of cervical mucus as the environment of females defensive reactions against all the invasive factors is outlined. There are also briefly characterized techniques of ASA detection.
