What is Mycoplasma genitalium PCR?

This test detects the DNA of Mycoplasma genitalium, a bacterium that can cause sexually transmitted infections (STIs). It's used to identify an active infection, especially when symptoms like painful urination or unusual discharge are present.

Why is this test important?

Mycoplasma genitalium can lead to urethritis in men and cervicitis or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in women, potentially causing infertility if left untreated. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent complications and stop its spread.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required.
