UREAPLASMA

by Wlad, Dec 02, 2008 01:19PM

Recently, my girlfriend was positive for ureaplasma urealyticom/parvum. She'd a yellowish discharge and it was a very itchy discomfort. She's been medicated with antibiotics following the normal procedure here in Brazil.

I know that ureaplasma are present in the vagina. Was this situation sexually transmitted? Should I be tested?

You can be, but I don't know that it will change anything. It might be helpful to know if you have it too.

Parvum isn't an std - its a parasite that can cause diarrhea, etc.
