Semen quality of men with asymptomatic chlamydial infection.

Journal of andrology - 1 Jan 2000

Hosseinzadeh Saeid, Eley Adrian, Pacey Allan A

Abstract excerpt

We have shown previously that the in vitro exposure of spermatozoa to elementary bodies (EBs) of Chlamydia trachomatis can lead to sperm death over a number of hours of incubation. As such, we have hypothesized that the ejaculates of men with a chlamydial infection could contain increased numbers of nonmotile (dead) spermatozoa if they are exposed to EBs prior to ejaculation. To test this hypothesis, the...
