Introduction
In general, a positive result for genital mycoplasma in gynecology indicates that a woman has tested positive for a mycoplasma infection in her reproductive tract during a gynecological examination. A positive mycoplasma test may suggest diseases such as non-gonococcal vaginitis, cervicitis, endometritis, urethritis, or pelvic inflammatory disease. In daily life, it is important to maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia, change underwear frequently, and avoid using unclean sanitary products.
Generally, a positive result for genital mycoplasma in gynecology indicates that a woman has tested positive for a mycoplasma infection in her reproductive tract during a gynecological examination. A positive genital mycoplasma test may suggest conditions such as non-gonococcal vaginitis, cervicitis, endometritis, urethritis, or pelvic inflammatory disease. If discomfort occurs, timely medical consultation is recommended. Detailed explanations are as follows:
1. Non-gonococcal Vaginitis
Mycoplasma infection can cause vaginal mucosal congestion, edema, increased secretions, and abnormal discharge.
2. Cervicitis
After infecting the cervix, mycoplasma can cause cervical mucosal congestion, edema, and inflammatory exudate, leading to increased cervical secretions.
3. Endometritis
Following infection of the endometrium, mycoplasma can cause endometrial congestion, edema, and inflammatory exudate, resulting in increased vaginal discharge and abdominal pain.
4. Urethritis
After infecting the urethra, mycoplasma can cause urethral mucosal congestion, edema, and inflammatory exudate, leading to symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and painful urination.
5. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
After infecting the pelvis, mycoplasma can cause congestion, edema, and inflammatory exudate in pelvic organs, resulting in lower abdominal pain and increased vaginal discharge.
In daily life, it is important to maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia, change underwear frequently, and avoid using unclean sanitary products.
