This study was undertaken to determine the frequency of bacteria and Mycoplasmas in semen of infertile African men and to compare abnormal semen parameters with the presence of these organisms. Routine semen analysis were performed on 100 patients, and semen and first-voided urine samples were cultured. Mycoplasma hominis was cultured in 28% of seminal fluid and Ureaplasma urealyticum in 42%. These organisms were both present in 22% of cultures. Bacteriological cultures were positive in 6 urine and 21 seminal specimens. The frequency of tail abnormalities in the Mycoplasma positive group was greater as compared to normal values. From these it would appear that culture for Ureaplasma should probably be performed routinely at the Andrology Clinic.
