Is this disease difficult to treat? Is the recurrence rate high??
Thank you
First follow-up question: I still don’t understand what mycoplasma infection MG is. What does it mean? Please explain in detail what MG positive means. The doctor treating me gave a vague answer, and I didn’t understand what she meant. Thank you for your reply.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, MG positive means Chlamydia trachomatis positive. Currently, there are many methods to treat this disease, mainly including:
1. Primarily using broad-spectrum antibiotics. These drugs exhibit varying degrees of drug resistance due to individual differences. Therefore, selective medication based on the patient's drug sensitivity should be chosen to enable short-term recovery. In response to this phenomenon, drug sensitivity tests have become an indispensable part of effective treatment for mycoplasma and chlamydia. Through the results of drug sensitivity tests, targeted prescriptions can be provided, offering personalized treatment plans.
2. It is best for both partners to be treated simultaneously to achieve complete cure. Mycoplasma and chlamydia are primarily transmitted through sexual contact. Therefore, if one partner has non-gonococcal urethritis infection, regardless of whether the other tests positive or negative, the principle of simultaneous treatment for both partners is essential to ensure complete cure. The correct approach is for both partners to undergo medical examination and treatment together if either suspects infection with mycoplasma or chlamydia, rather than avoiding medical care due to the absence of obvious symptoms.
