Patient's question:
My wife's white discharge test showed ureaplasma urealyticum positive, greater than or equal to 10E4CUU/ml. What could be the cause of this? What medication is the best to use? Is it serious? Could it cause a miscarriage? Do we need any other tests? My wife has already had a miscarriage for almost 4 months now. This issue was only discovered now. What could have caused it? What kind of antibiotic would be best? How long does the treatment take?Doctor's answer:
If the mycoplasma test is positive, it means you have a mycoplasma infection. It is recommended to actively treat it while undergoing further tests to rule out other sexually transmitted diseases. Mycoplasma is a relatively serious infection that requires timely treatment. It can lead to infections in areas such as the pelvic cavity and cervix if it spreads upward. Additionally, mycoplasma requires joint treatment for both partners. It is advised that your husband comes to the urology department of the hospital for a check-up, regardless of whether he has symptoms, to prevent cross-infection between partners. It is recommended to conduct a drug sensitivity test to determine the appropriate medication. Please communicate well with the doctor who will be conducting the examination for specific advice.
