Mycoplasma Genitalium (MG)
Bacterial Infection & Ureaplasma
- These are more recently recognised bacteria and as it is spread through sexual contact it is probably a STI though is not recognised by British Association of Sexual Health & HIV BASHH
- Spread through unprotected vaginal, anal and oral sex and also through sexual touching skin to skin of genitals
- Most common side effect is urethritis- inflammation of the tube from the bladder to the body opening
- Online testing and treatment is available- a course of oral antibiotics
- This test is often not screened for routinely at GP’s and GUM clinics
- If you have on-going urethritis and other test results have been negative it is worth testing for MG and Ureaplasma
- Your current and recent previous partners will need to be contacted and tested/treated
- A retest after treatment may be advised
- Untreated Mycoplasma Genitalium and Ureaplasma may cause PID. As these are lesser known bacteria the possible long term effects are currently not confirmed
