ureaplasma tests and treatment

Ureaplasma urealyticum is caused by a bacterium and commonly occurs in people who are sexually active. It often does not cause any symptoms and therefore most people don’t know that they’re infected. The most common symptom is urethritis (inflammation of the urethra). If left untreated it may cause long term health problems.

It can be detected by our 7 in 1 test kit for men or women.

The treatment is a week long course of doxycycline.

One 100mg capsule of Doxycycline twice a day is  taken for 7 days.

You are advised to abstain from sexual intercourse until 14 days after the start of treatment, and until symptoms have resolved.
