&lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mycoplasma Genitalium (Mgen): Symptoms, Testing, and Treatment in the Philippines&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/mycoplasma-genitalium&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mycoplasma genitalium (Mgen)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is a lesser-known but serious sexually transmitted infection (STI) that often shows no symptoms&amp;mdash;making regular testing essential. This infection can affect your &lt;strong&gt;cervix, urethra, or rectum&lt;/strong&gt;, and if left untreated, may lead to severe health complications such as &lt;strong&gt;infertility, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), or urethritis&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is Mycoplasma Genitalium (Mgen)?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.cdc.gov/mgen/about/index.html&quot;&gt;Mycoplasma genitalium&lt;/a&gt; (Mgen) is a &lt;strong&gt;sexually transmitted bacterial infection&lt;/strong&gt; that spreads through &lt;strong&gt;vaginal or anal sex&lt;/strong&gt; without protection. Many people infected with Mgen don&amp;rsquo;t even know they have it, increasing the risk of unknowingly passing it to others.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: #ffff99;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Good news: Mgen is treatable with prescription antibiotics.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: #ffff99;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;The only way to know for sure if you have it? Get tested Babe!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If you&#39;re sexually active, especially with multiple partners or inconsistent condom use, &lt;strong&gt;getting screened at a trusted clinic like PULSE Clinic Philippines&lt;/strong&gt; can protect both your health and your partners&#39;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Take Charge of Your Health&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Your sexual health matters. Don&amp;rsquo;t wait for symptoms to appear&amp;mdash;schedule your STI screening at PULSE Clinic Philippines today.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Symptoms of Mycoplasma Genitalium&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Many people have no symptoms. However, when symptoms do appear, they may include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;For People with a Vagina:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Abnormal vaginal discharge&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Burning or pain during urination&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Pelvic pain&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;For People with a Penis:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Discharge from the penis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Pain or burning during urination&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Pain during ejaculation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Itching or irritation in the genital area&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Lower abdominal discomfort&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If you notice any of these symptoms, &lt;strong&gt;don&amp;rsquo;t wait. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent serious complications.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How is Mycoplasma Genitalium Transmitted?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;You can get &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/mycoplasma-genitalium-treatment-guidelines&quot;&gt;Mgen&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; by having &lt;strong&gt;unprotected vaginal or anal sex&lt;/strong&gt; with an infected partner. It&#39;s still unclear whether Mgen spreads through oral sex. Even if there are no symptoms, the infection can still be transmitted.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Complications of Untreated Mycoplasma Genitalium&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Without timely treatment, Mgen can lead to:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cervicitis&lt;/strong&gt; (inflammation of the cervix)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Urethritis&lt;/strong&gt; (inflammation of the urethra)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ectopic pregnancy&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Infertility&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Proctitis&lt;/strong&gt; (inflammation of the rectum)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How is Mgen Diagnosed?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Diagnosis requires specialized testing. At &lt;strong&gt;PULSE Clinic Philippines&lt;/strong&gt;, Mgen can be detected through:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Urine samples&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Swabs&lt;/strong&gt; from the cervix, vagina, urethra, or rectum&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If your test is positive, your sexual partner(s) should also be tested and treated to prevent reinfection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Treatment for Mycoplasma Genitalium&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Mgen is treated with &lt;strong&gt;prescription antibiotics&lt;/strong&gt;. However, antibiotic resistance is becoming more common, meaning some cases may require a &lt;strong&gt;combination or second-line treatment&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If symptoms persist after treatment, &lt;strong&gt;follow up at PULSE Clinic Philippines&lt;/strong&gt; to reassess your condition and adjust medication if necessary.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Mgen will not go away on its own.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Only antibiotics prescribed by a qualified healthcare provider can cure it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How to Prevent Mycoplasma Genitalium&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;While the only sure way to prevent STIs is to &lt;strong&gt;avoid sexual contact&lt;/strong&gt;, here are practical ways to reduce your risk:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Use condoms&lt;/strong&gt; consistently and correctly&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Get tested regularly&lt;/strong&gt;, especially if you have multiple or anonymous partners&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Avoid sex when under the influence of alcohol or drugs&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
