Summary

It is a prospective, monocentric, interventional study on spontaneous vaginal clearance of Mycoplasma genitalium. The main objective is to evaluate the spontaneous vaginal clearance of M. genitalium in patients coming to perform a voluntary termination of pregnancy at the University Hospital of Bordeaux at 9 weeks after a vaginal sample positive for M. genitalium

Detailed description

Mycoplasma genitalium is a bacterium that colonizes female genital tract and can be responsible for sexually transmitted infection . M. genitalium can cause cervicitis and more rarely high genital infections. In the vast majority of cases, presence of M. genitalium is not accompanied by any symptoms and women do not develop disease. Natural history of M. genitalium infection is not well documented. Some studies have shown a natural clearance of infection in women. The published work mainly concerns patients at very high risk of sexually transmitted disease, but we do not have French data. We propose to study the natural clearance of M. genitalium infection in patients consulting at the Orthogeny Centre of the University Hospital of Bordeaux. Results of this work will allow us to have a better knowledge of the natural history of M. genitalium infection.
