Detection the Frequency of M.hominis in Infertile Men "Abnormal Semen" with Control Group

Introduction: Infertility is one of the most important problems for every family. The aim of this study is to test the prevalence of Mycoplasma hominis in infertile men (with abnormal Semen). The patients that arrive to infertility clinic (Royan institute in Tehran) with the semen analysis and culture request are asked to fill in a questionnaire about infertility smear collection. Methods: In this case control study presence of Mycoplasma hominis were analysed in tested men. in this study we have compared 40 infertile males with unexplained infertility and 40 Normal men with Female factor as a control case group. The semen samples were sent to microbiology laboratory. The information were analysed with S.P.S.S software by frequency, chi-square & T-test Methods. Results: The average age in patients and control groups were 31.97±5.54 and 31.9±5.9 the value of Mycoplasma hominis in infertile cases were 7(17.5%) and in Normal men were 2(5%) x2=3.13 and P=0.077, then we have not found statistically significant deferenceʹs in the Mycoplasma hominis frequency of the patients. But we have found statistically significant relations between educational levels, the history of and infertility. Also we have not found statistically significant relations between history of libido, premature ejaculation, abdominal pain, testis pain, smoking and infertility. Discussion: We have show a significantly Mycoplasma hominis infections increase in the infertile men. The similarities between this study and the results obtained by others are limited and it may be due to different cultural and normal values in various societies. Though statistically non-significant due to limited number of subjects, however the difference observed in the prevalence infection between cases and controls indicates an association between Mycoplasma hominis infection and infertility. So, it is suggested to check up those patient with unexplained infertility, for seminal micro-organisms infections, and if positive, to control the rate of infertility with a suitable and cost effective therapy.
