Popis: We evaluated the prevalence of Mycoplasma genitalium co-infection in 302 chlamydia-infected women seen at a sexually transmitted disease clinic in Birmingham, Alabama. M. genitalium co-infection was detected in 22 (7.3%). No participant characteristics predicted co-infection. Among co-infected women, M. genitalium was detected again in 6 of 21 (28.6%) women returning for a 3-month follow-up visit after azithromycin treatment.
