Abstract
Chlamydia trachomatis is the common cause of bacterial sexually transmitted disease in the world. More than 85% of women with urogenital Chlamydial infections do not manifest obvious symptoms; the consequences of such untreated infections include pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility and ectopic pregnancy. This cross sectional study aimed to detect of Chlamydia IgG antibodies among infertile women in Khartoum State. A total of ninety (90) infertile women with a history of primary and secondary infertility were enrolled in this study. 5 ml blood was collected from each woman. Serum was obtained by centrifugations at 3000 rpm for 5 min, Detection of C. trachomatis IgG antibodies were detected using Enzyme linked immunosorbant assay, and data analysis using spss. The result revealed that out of 90 women investigated, only one (1/90) (1.1%) was positive for C. trachomatis IgG antibodies. the majority (89/90)(98.9%) were negative. The study concluded that C. trachomatis infection is not common among infertile women in Khartoum state. Further studies are required with larger sample size to confirm this result.
