Abstract
A retrospective study of 98 IVF treatment cycles from 49 couples has assessed the relationship between presence of antibodies to Chlamydia trachomatis and success with respect to fertilization, cleavage and pregnancy rate, both at nidation and term. No effect of prior infection on IVF outcome was noted.Keywords
