What should I do if I get infected during the preparation period for gonorrhea or non-gonorrhea?

Speaking of gonorrhea, most of the things that come to mind are sexually transmitted diseases such as syphilis. In ancient times, it was also classified as "venereal disease", but the disease that the editor below will tell you about is non-gonococcal urethritis, which has hidden symptoms and is easy to ignore.

1. How do you get goiter?

In the outpatient clinic, most male patients who are preparing for childbearing will undergo urogenital examinations such as Ureaplasma urealyticum, Chlamydia trachomatis, and Mycoplasma genitalium. Some patients feel nervous and uneasy when they see the word "gonococcal". Non-gonococcal urethritis is an acute and chronic inflammation of the urogenital tract caused by pathogens other than Neisseria gonorrhoeae, such as Ureaplasma urealyticum, Chlamydia trachomatis, and Mycoplasma genitalium. There is a history of unsafe sexual behavior, multiple sexual partners or sexual partner infection, and a history of close contact with patients with non-gonococcal urethritis. A small number of patients can also be transmitted through underwear, towels, toilets, or hand contact. Now it is the beginning of autumn, and when the weather turns cooler, everyone chooses to take a bath or hot spring to rest and relax. If the hygiene conditions of the store are not up to standard, the risk of infection with this pathogen may increase. Therefore, if one of the couple is diagnosed, they should stop having sex to avoid cross infection, and the other party should also seek medical treatment in time, and the couple should be treated together to avoid the risk of recurrence.

2. How to know this

Clinically, male patients usually present with urethral itching, stinging or burning sensation, a few have frequent urination and dysuria, and some patients even have no special discomfort clinically, which can easily lead to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis; female patients present with urinary system symptoms such as urethral congestion, frequent urination, and even dysuria. Examination can show mild congestion and edema of the urethral orifice, serous or purulent secretions, and laboratory tests show positive conditional pathogens such as Ureaplasma urealyticum and Chlamydia trachomatis, which can confirm the diagnosis. Most patients have the need to prepare for pregnancy and childbearing, so they come for examination and find that Chlamydia trachomatis can affect sperm cell production through infection of the reproductive organs, which can easily cause infertility. If you have similar symptoms, you should seek medical attention in time.

3. How to treat stranguria

If the disease is clearly diagnosed, combined with the degree of the patient's symptoms, and in view of the increased drug resistance caused by the current irregular use of antibiotics, culture and drug sensitivity tests are usually added clinically. Sexual partners should be examined and treated at the same time. The overall treatment should follow the principles of timeliness, sufficiency, and standardization, and adopt an individualized treatment plan. The drugs mainly use oral antibiotics, such as tetracyclines, macrolides, and quinolones. If drug resistance is found, the antibiotics should be replaced in time. Because some antibiotics have the risk of teratogenicity, before treatment, patients who are preparing for childbearing are advised not to have sex during medication. Follow-up should be carried out 3-4 weeks after stopping the medication to see if the laboratory test has turned negative. If it has turned negative after treatment, normal preparation for childbearing can be carried out. In daily life, everyone should also pay attention to personal hygiene, keep themselves clean, eat a light diet, and actively cooperate with treatment.
