Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I contracted Mycoplasma infection in June this year. I went to the hospital for a check-up, had a drug sensitivity test, and took a course of tetracycline after which I had no symptoms at all. When I went back for a follow-up check, the results were negative. However, in August, my symptoms returned, and the doctor prescribed doxycycline. After finishing the medication, I didn't get better, so the doctor then prescribed a combination of doxycycline and azithromycin. I have taken azithromycin and clarithromycin one after the other, strictly following the doctor's instructions, and I have also been careful with hygiene and have not had any sexual activity. But I still don't feel better. I don't know what to do? What should I do? First question supplement: I have already had a drug sensitivity test.Doctor's answer:
Hello, female patients are more common with gynecological infections that spread from the cervix. The infection is localized to the cervix, increased vaginal discharge, turbidity, cervical edema, congestion, or surface erosion. Most have no obvious symptoms. If it's not treatable, there's a problem with medication selection and personal issues. Remember to pay attention to your diet during treatment. As long as you stick to an effective treatment method, there's no problem. If it's severe, some cases may not be cured even after three courses of treatment, but this also depends on the individual. If you follow the doctor's advice and persist in medication, generally 2-3 courses are enough.
