Several treatments for Ureaplasma urealyticum infection in women

Some of you may have heard of the symptoms of ureaplasma infection, but there are definitely not many people who really understand ureaplasma infection. After all, ureaplasma infection is not a common disease for us, and there are few people around us who have ureaplasma infection. However, since ureaplasma infection is very harmful, we need to learn more about ureaplasma infection. Below we will introduce to you several treatment methods for ureaplasma infection in women.

When it comes to the treatment of genital ureaplasma infection, the pros and cons must be weighed and the treatment must be carried out with caution and not too aggressively. The treatment of the spouse or sexual partner of a person infected with ureaplasma should also be cautious. The key is to target other sexually transmitted pathogens that may co-exist. Many people infected with ureaplasma have been treated with antibiotics for a long time, but their ureaplasma tests are still positive and many new discomforts have occurred. The reasons are extremely complicated and may include ureaplasma resistance, detection errors or reagent failure, superinfection (people who use antibiotics for a long time are prone to fungal and other insensitive bacterial infections), and psychological factors.

In general, drugs that are effective against chlamydia infections are also effective against mycoplasma infections. If necessary, tetracyclines (commonly used are tetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline), macrolides (commonly used are erythromycin, erythromycin ethylsuccinate, roxithromycin, azithromycin) and quinolones (commonly used are ofloxacin, levofloxacin) as well as spectinomycin, clindamycin, clarithromycin, etc. can be used to treat genital mycoplasma infection. The course of treatment is 1 to 2 weeks. Among them, erythromycin is ineffective against Mycoplasma hominis, and clindamycin is ineffective against Ureaplasma urealyticum. For female pelvic inflammatory disease, its multifactorial nature should be considered, and treatment should include antibiotics against gonococci, Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma hominis and anaerobic bacteria. Foreign countries recommend the combination treatment of cefoxitin + doxycycline or clarithromycin + gentamicin. It is worth mentioning that the cause of prostatitis is complex, and the effect of antibiotic treatment is not necessarily good. Comprehensive treatment is required, and it is best to follow the advice of urology experts for treatment. In addition, if there is no sensitive drug, you should use Chinese medicine diuretic and anti-inflammatory pills for treatment! Antibiotic resistance is increasing, so do not take medicine on your own!

Recently, the problem of Ureaplasma urealyticum resistance to antibiotics has attracted much attention. The abuse of antibiotics may be an important factor leading to Ureaplasma urealyticum resistance. The resistant strains of Ureaplasma urealyticum to tetracycline accounted for 10% to 20.6%, to doxycycline accounted for 8% to 27.5%, and to erythromycin accounted for 10% to 52.4%. Nearly 20% of the strains of Ureaplasma urealyticum and Mycoplasma hominis were resistant to ofloxacin.

In addition, ureaplasma urealyticum resistant to roxithromycin and azithromycin has also been reported. Since ureaplasma urealyticum has an increasing trend of resistance to antibiotics, care should be taken when using drugs clinically. Some experts advocate that in the treatment of ureaplasma infection, in order to reduce or prevent the emergence of drug-resistant strains, it is advisable to use 2 to 3 different types of antibiotics in combination.
