ABSTRACT

Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Chlamydia trachomatis and Mycoplasma are common in female genital tract infections,which are associated with urethritis,cervicitis,pelvic inflammatory disease,ectopic pregnancy,infertility,chronic pelvic pain and perinatal infections.They can cause the infectious diseases asymptomatically,which would be easily neglected.Nucleic acid amplification test(NAAT)can provide an accurate diagnosis for these diseases,and qualified laboratories should be suggested to develop the project. Appropriate sensitive antibiotics and sex partners participation are essential for treatment.Noticeably, asymptomatic carrier should be differentiated during the treatment of Mycoplasma infections.It should increase awareness of these infectious diseases,in order to reduce the harm caused by misdiagnosis.(Chin J Lab Med,2018,41263-266)
