About Mycoplasma Genitalium (MG, Mgen) Urine Test in Dover

Mycoplasma genitalium (often abbreviated as MG or Mgen) is a type of bacteria that can infect the genital tract. It is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that may cause urethritis in men and cervicitis in women, though many people who carry the bacterium do not experience symptoms.

The bacterium was first identified in the 1980s and has since been recognized as a cause of persistent or recurrent urethritis and cervicitis. It can also lead to pelvic inflammatory disease in women and epididymitis in men if left untreated. Because its symptoms overlap with other STIs, laboratory testing is necessary to confirm an infection.

This test uses a urine sample to detect the genetic material of Mycoplasma genitalium. It is a nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT), which is highly sensitive and specific. The test is typically performed on a first-catch urine sample, which means the first part of the urine stream is collected.

Mycoplasma genitalium can be treated with antibiotics, but resistance to some commonly used antibiotics is increasing. Therefore, accurate testing is important to guide appropriate treatment. It is also recommended that sexual partners of someone with MG be tested and treated if positive to prevent reinfection.
