Etiology
Trichomonas vaginalis and herpes simplex virus cause cervicitis, and both Mycoplasma genitalium and bacterial vaginosis have emerged as new candidate etiologic agents or conditions. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
For persistent / chronic cervicitis, it is more likely that the etiology will be related to a noninfectious cause. [visualdx.com]
