mycoplasma

looking for some insight on this? i have been having reocurring BV for about 2 years now and was tested for this about a week ago and my test results came back positive. My doctor told me it is not an STI but everything i read says other wise? thank you!!

its an std

just hard to wrap my mind around i guess. something ive never even heard of. i have been having some pelvic pain lately too

it can cause pelvic inflammatory disease

how is that diagnosed

usually if u have an std thats been left untreated it causes pelivic pain as the bacteria moves up past the cervix an into the fallopium tubes etc

its usually treated with the antibiotics u have already been given so it should clear it all up

thank you again kim!!!

the pelvic pain should go away once the treatment is finished if it persists go bck and see your doctor

okay! i have not picked up my antibotics yet

there is no insight thats what you have get antibiotics for it. did they prescribe you something?

i spoke to her via inbox shes been prescribed doxycycline for mycoplasma ganatalium

no one was asking for rude comments. i was asking if anyone knew anything about it or if they have had it. thank u

i wasnt trying to be rude. i thought maybe you asked your doctor what was it you know asking questions so he or she can explain thats all.

and i did! she was vague on it so thats why i am here. she said it was not an std, had no clue how long i have had it an said its nothing to worry about but i worry! so i an kinda stressed

i was diagnosed with it last year, and i was told the same thing, and given the same meds. The medication makes the bv come worse when its done. keep us updated

oh ok this my first time hearing about it to we both in the same boat man and i do want to have 1 more child im worried this has something to do with it.

yea i finally found a dr that wanted to test for it! i am worried as well! :frowning: my first time hearing of it too so i am not educated on it

ugh geezzzz! i just want this all to go away! i will def update.

me either i will ask more about this and thanks and i am sorry if i sounded rude.
