The authors pay attention to the relationship of pregnancy in women enlisted in the IVF programme and the detection of Chlamydia infection. A group of 74 infertile couples were investigated. A significant relationship was found between confirmed Chlamydia infection in women and men. Moreover a significant relationship was found between Chlamydia infection confirmed by immunofluorescence in men and impregnation in women in the IVF programme. This means that in female partners of men with acute Chlamydia infection the results of IVF are less successful. The authors recommend that all couples enlisted in the IVF programme should be examined for this infection and if it is positive given adequate treatment.
