Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I recently had a mycoplasma culture test, and the result was Ureaplasma urealyticum infection. The drug sensitivity test showed resistance to,,,,. I have taken before, but it didn't work. I don't know which medication would be more effective now. The doctor suggested using some topical medication. I am wondering if it is necessary, and if so, what would be a good choice?Doctor's answer:
Hello, mycoplasma is a microscopic pathogen. There are over 80 species in the Mycoplasma genus, and the mycoplasmas associated with urogenital tract infections include Mycoplasma hominis (MH), Ureaplasma urealyticum (UU), and Mycoplasma genitalium (MG). When mycoplasmas infect the urogenital tract, they cause non-gonococcal urethritis in men. Currently, the treatment for mycoplasma infection involves taking diuretic and anti-inflammatory pills, using traditional Chinese medicine methods to clear heat and detoxify, which does not produce side effects.
