description Infertility is one of the major social issues. Due to the asymptomatic cervical infection associated with , the majority of patients remain undiagnosed. The present study intended to assess the frequency of isolated from infertile women's endocervix in northwest Iran. In a descriptive cross sectional study, specimens were randomly collected during vagina examination using a sterile speculum and swabbing. After performance of antibiotic susceptibility testing, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to identify methicillin-resistance (MRSA) and toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1). About 26 (26%) and 9 (9%) women's urogenital tracts were colonized by and Candida spp., respectively, of which three (11.5%) patients were infected with fungi and , simultaneously. Antibiotic susceptibility results showed high activity of vancomycin and co-trimoxazole on isolates. Regarding PCR results, mecA sequences were detected in 7 (26.9%) strains, whilst the tst gene encoding TSST-1 was not detected in any of clinical strains. The prevalence of was very high in infertile women. Therefore, it demands all patients undergoing infertility treatment to be investigated thoroughly for this type of infection.
