The impact of nonspecific inflammatory processes of the urogenital tract on men’s fertility

Abstract

We studied the role of opportunistic pathogens in the progression of inflammatory diseases of men's urogenital tract which result infertility dysfunction. We examined the patients with qualitative and quantitative changes in spermogram, with the absence of sexually-transmitted infections. At the study of ejaculates of these patients we revealed changes of all main parameters: volume, period of sperm dilution, concentration of spermatozoa in 1 ml, their quantity in all ejaculate, their mobility, increase of contents of pathologic forms of spermatozoa. Microflora discharged from the urethra and the prostate in some cases had resistance to traditionally used antibacterial drugs and demanded careful selection of effective antibiotics by establishing the antibiograms. Obtained data testified to the high quantitative contents of opportunistic microorganisms in the urethra, prostate secretion and ejaculate and also to the prevailing role of gram-positive cocci microflora in the development of inflammatory diseased of urogenital tract in men.
