description Infertility in famale is one of the most important sequela of genital infection with Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma urealyticum. In the present study the frequency of these bacteries was studied in 125 infertile female by direct and indirect immunofluorscence tests and culture method and compared with 250 normal population. Mycoplasma hominis was isolated from 32 (35.6%) of infertile females compare with 18 (7.2%) of normal population. Ureaplasma urealyticum was isolated from 41 (32.8%) of infertile females compare to 48 (19.2%) of normal population. Chlamydia trachomatis was detected by direct IF in 11 (8.8%) of infertile and 2 (0.8%) control group. The antibody titer against D-K serotypes of Chlamydia trachomatis was also measured in both groups of infertile and normal population and a positive titer of 1/16 and above was detected in 26 (20.8%) of infertile cases and in 8 (3.2%) of control group. The rate of Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma urealyticum in case and control groups was significant (respectively P
