PURPOSE: To investigate C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae prevalence in three different female populations in Turkey.
METHODS: A total of 370 women, 170 symptomatic, 100 asymptomatic, and 100 infertile, were included. Of the endocervical specimens collected from all women using a Dacron swab, the first one was taken to Stuart's transport medium to culture, while the second one was transferred onto slides to perform direct fluorescent antibody test (DFA) and Gram staining, and the third specimen was used for Becton Dickinson BDProbeTec ET system (BDPT).
RESULTS: C. trachomatis was detected in 5.16% of symptomatic, 1.11% of asymptomatic, and 2.15% of infertile women with BDPT. Sensitivity and specificity of the DFA test were 72.73 and 97.85%, respectively. N. gonorrhoeae was detected in 2.42% of symptomatic and in 1.02% of infertile women. N. gonorrhoeae was not detected in any asymptomatic women. In N. gonorrhoeae-positive patients, sensitivity and specificity of culture were 60 and 100%, respectively, while they were 80 and 100% for BDPT.
CONCLUSIONS: Prevalence of N. gonorrhoeae and C. trachomatis was detected to be low in Turkish women, and the difference between the groups was not significant. Both agents were more prevalent in subjects over 25 years of age.
