Chlamydia antibody testing in screening for tubal factor subfertility: the significance of IgG antibody decline over time

1 Mar 2002

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Chlamydia (C.) trachomatis antibody testing in screening for tubal factor subfertility is limited by false negative results, i.e. negative Chlamydia antibody tests in patients with tubal pathology at laparoscopy. The present study was performed to determine whether decline in C. trachomatis IgG antibodies over time is responsible for those false negative results. METHODS: A total of 39 women with an...
