THE SPREAD OF UROGENITAL MYCOPLASMOSIS (MYCOPLASMA HOMINIS, UREAPLASMA UREALYTICUM) IN WOMEN

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of the spread of urogenital mycoplasmas (Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma urealyticum) in women with and without sexually transmitted infections. These microorganisms were significantly more often detected in women with STIs. With syphilis, mycoplasmas were detected with a frequency of 41.9%, with trichomoniasis - 29.7%, with gonorrhea - 19.5%. The frequency of detection of urogenital mycoplasmas in all STIs was higher in the age group of 20-39 years. It was concluded that genital mycoplasmas were commensals of the urogenital tract. In association with other microorganisms (causative agents of STIs), they can cause inflammation of the urogenitals.
