title: [The microorganisms associated with bacterial vaginosis as a cause of tubal sterility].
abstract: Bacterial vaginosis is one of the most widespread disturbances of the normal state of the vagina of women of reproductive and menopausal age. This condition is highly disregarded due to its moderate and not always clear clinical manifestation. The disturbed proportion of microorganisms in vagina is shown in the strong decrease or lack of lactobacilli and a spread of associated with bacterial vaginosis microorganisms. G. vaginalis, Mobiluncis spp., Bacteroides spp. (without B. fragilis), Peptostreptococcus spp., Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma urealyticum. The condition is a predisposition to a disturbance of natural defense mechanisms and to a spread of infectious agents towards the upper female genital tract. This is a predisposition for the development of tubal patency and motility disorders, ovarian function disturbances, endometrites. The treatment of this condition as an important step in female sterility prophylaxis is commented.
