In the course of the study there were examined cytokine levels of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory activity (IL-1b, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IFN-g, G-GSF), and also the levels of progesterone and estradiol in the blood serum with a view to study the pathogenic characteristics of a chronic inflammatory process of the pelvic organs in remission. It was shown that the remission of the disease is characterized by the significant increase in the concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6, IL-8, and also increase of inducers activation of the immune response of the immune response (IL-4 and IFN-g), accompanied by a decrease in the concentration of sex hormones. In women with chronic inflammatory diseases of urogenital sphere in remission tested active immunological process and violation of the synthesis of sex hormones.
