Private Ureaplasma Testing in London

Ureaplasma is a group of small bacteria that reside naturally in the genital flora of women and men. While the bacteria are usually harmless, an imbalance can result in different infections, including urinary tract infections (UTIs) and complications in pregnancy. Understanding Ureaplasma is important to maintain your sexual health and well-being.

When is Ureaplasma testing necessary?

Ureaplasma testing is necessary if you experience symptoms such as a burning sensation while urinating or unusual discharge or if your partner tested positive for Ureaplasma. It is advisable for people with multiple sex partners or about to enter a new sexual relationship to get tested.

Why is Ureaplasma testing important?

Ureaplasma testing is important for several reasons, including diagnosing symptoms, avoiding potential complications such as pregnancy issues or infertility, and preventing its spread to sexual partners.

Ureaplasma symptoms may include unusual genital discharge, discomfort while urinating, and, sometimes, pelvic pain. However, it is important to note that many people with Ureaplasma do not show symptoms.

How does it spread?

Ureaplasma mainly spreads through sexual contact, during unprotected oral, vaginal or anal sex. This makes engaging in safe sexual practices important.
