Transmission of Ureaplasma urealyticum by artificial insemination by donor. 1984

B N Barwin

A case of U. urealyticum transmitted by AID is described. To prevent this complication, the donor must be screened with cultures not only for N. gonorrhoeae but also for U. urealyticum and Chlamydia. Despite the poorer results with frozen sperm, cultures for sexually transmitted disease may in the long term result in fewer reproductive failures and less morbidity.
