| Abstract | ||
| In this study 180 endocervical swabs were taken from women attending to Babylon Hospital for Maternity and Children in Hilla city suffering from cervicitis.They divided into two groups: 90 samples taken from IUCDs users and the other 90 sample taken from non-IUCDs users. The study showed that the rate of infection with N. gonorrhoeae and E. coli in women with IUCDs was less than women without IUCDs and the most common age group of women with IUCD was (31-35) year. The rate of infection with Actinomyces was higher in women that used IUCDs in comparison with women that not used IUCDs,there for we can regard the IUCDs preferable to use in women exposed to infection with N. gonorrhoeae ,as well as we should advice to use the IUCDs in women that in age group 35 year and more. N. gonorrhoeae isolates were subjected for antibiotic susceptibility test. It was seen that all isolates were sensitive to Ceftriaxone and in lesser degree to Cefixime and also isolates showed resistance to Tetracycline. | ||
