    Author: Hrdinová M.
    Journal: Acta Medica (Hradec Kralove) Suppl; 2005; 48(2):73-6. PubMed ID: 16922160.
    Abstract:
    In dependence on health of women the female genital tract is colonised by different microorganisms. Mycoplasma hominis was the first mycoplasma of human origin to be isolated. M. hominis, a common inhabitant of the vagina of healthy women, becomes pathogenic once it invades the internal genital organs. M. hominis is associated with bacterial vaginosis but it is still unclear whether the organism really contributes to a pathological process in which so many different bacteria are involved. The aim of this article is to summarize known information about these microorganisms.
