Patient's question:
Due to bleeding during cohabitation, I went to the hospital for a comprehensive gynecological examination and was found to have polyps. Additionally, my Mycoplasma test was positive. The doctor prescribed Fluconazole capsules, Hui Ren Clarithromycin tablets, Metronidazole capsules, and Vitamin B6 tablets, as well as another medicine in a small bag. The doctor also required me to undergo 10 days of physical and photodynamic therapy, along with medication application and cleaning (90 yuan per session). I would like to ask the experts: Is the medication prescribed by the doctor appropriate for my condition? Do I need to undergo the 90 yuan per session treatment? Is the treatment cost reasonable? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
Mycoplasma are the smallest organisms capable of independent survival, lacking a cell wall and existing between bacteria and viruses. The mycoplasmas that infect humans are primarily Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma urealyticum, which are the most common. Mycoplasma hominis infection can cause vaginitis, cervicitis, and salpingitis, while Ureaplasma urealyticum can lead to non-gonococcal urethritis. The main mode of transmission is sexual contact. Pregnant women infected with mycoplasma are at risk of miscarriage, premature birth, or stillbirth.
