The authors studied quantification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae from the cervicovaginal area of 53 nonpregnant women with gonorrhoea. The variability of the amount of gonococci in cervicovaginal secretion was rather high from 1.0.10(1) to 1.1.10(8) cfu N. gonorrhoeae in 1 ml. Maximum values of N. gonorrhoeae have been found intra menses (from 1.0.10(2) to 3.0.10(8) cfu N. gonorrhoeae in 1 ml). These findings allow the authors to make some, already more or less known, conclusions usable in clinical practice.
