    Abstract:
    Infectious cervicitis is a common disease in women of reproductive age. The symptoms are not characteristic and they are often neglected by the patient and the physician. Cervicitis is a very important clinical entity, because the infection can ascend to the genital tract. The most common causes for the infectious cervicitis are Chlamydia trachomatic and Neisseria gonorrhoeae. A variety of methods for the precise diagnosis must be employed--gynecologic examination, colposcopy, pathomorphology and cytology and bacteriological examination as well. Therapeutic modalities must include coverage for both Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Bacteriological test of cure is mandatory.
