Abstract

OBJECTIVE: in women via multiplex-polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cervical swabs of 273 women in reproductive age who underwent gynecologic examination in our outpatient clinic were evaluated using the multiplex-PCR-DNA method. The presence of cervicitis, contraceptive methods, marital status, and the number of partners were evaluated. RESULTS: , which are often associated with cervicitis, were comparable in women with and without cervicitis. CONCLUSION: .
