摘要
In a cohort of women in Cameroon with secondary infertility (cases) or current pregnancy (controls), Chlamydia trachomatis seropositivity was 92% and did not significantly differ by case/control status. The contribution of chlamydia to secondary infertility in women is poorly understood. Among 404 female participants enrolled in a previous study in Cameroon, 142 had secondary infertility (cases) and 262 were pregnant with no history of infertility (controls), Chlamydia trachomatis seropositivity was 92%. Seropositivity did not significantly differ by case/control status.
