What is Mycoplasma Spp. Culture - Urine?
This test involves culturing a urine sample to detect the presence of Mycoplasma species, such as Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma urealyticum. These bacteria can sometimes cause urinary tract infections (UTIs) or other urogenital issues in both men and women.
Why is this test important?
Identifying Mycoplasma species in urine is important for diagnosing urinary tract infections, urethritis, or other urogenital conditions that may not respond to standard antibiotic treatments. This culture helps tailor specific and effective therapy.
How to Prepare
Provide a clean-catch midstream urine sample. Avoid urinating for at least 1-2 hours before collection. Inform your doctor about any antibiotics you are taking.
