<div style="text-align:justify;"> <span style="font-family:Verdana;"><strong>Objectives:</strong> The main objective of this study was to investigate the effect of <em>Mycoplasma hominis</em> infection on the morphology of sperms and its association with the infertility of men. The patients were referred to the Urology Departments of Mosul General Hospital and Soran Hospital in Mosul and Erbil respectively. <strong>Methods:</strong> The present study was carried out from April 2019 to March 2020 and the number of the patients group was 108. The patients aged 20 to 60 years. Semen was collected from infertile men of a couple that female failed to become pregnant after one year of regular and unprotected intercourse of marriage and submitted for seminal fluid analysis as well as for bacteriological investigations <strong>Results:</strong> <em>M. hominis</em> was detected in 14 semen specimens (12.9%) from the infertile men. The teratozoospermia, normozoospermia, asthenoteratozoospermia, oligoasthenoteratozoospermia, asthenozoospermia, oligozoospermia, oligoasthenozoospermia and leukospermia were seen among patients examined. Statistically, there were no significant differences between these forms of infected infertile men and non-infected infertile men (<em>P</em> > 0.05). <strong>Conclusions:</strong> The results of present study demonstrated that the genital <em>Mycoplasma hominis</em> seems to be widespread among male partners of infertile couples in Iraq. The present data did not show any significant differences between forms of the sperm concentration and sperm morphology related to the infection by <em>M. hominis</em><em>.</em></span> </div>
