title: [The role of sexually transmitted diseases in the childless marriage].
abstract: The effect of urogenital infection on reproductive function was studied in 326 infertile males. They were found to carry Chlamydia, Ureaplasma, Mycoplasma, Herpes, Gardnerella and mixed Chlamydia-Ureaplasma infections in 132, 84, 28, 16, 12 and 56 patients, respectively. Oligozoospermia of the first, second and third degree was diagnosed in 164, 128 and 34 males, respectively. Intermittent-course therapy included macrolid, chephalosporin and fluoroquinolone drugs, sometimes rifampicin, immunocorrection. Husbands and wives received treatment simultaneously. Secretory infertility was managed later. Oligozoospermia declined in two-thirds of the patients. 119 wives got pregnant.
