Hello, a positive mycoplasma test indicates a mycoplasma infection. This infection is primarily transmitted through sexual contact and is also associated with compromised immune function, which may lead to recurrent episodes. Treatment requires a systematic, standard course of Western medication—typically tetracycline-class antibiotics administered for an adequate duration—combined with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to regulate the body and enhance immunity, thereby preventing recurrence. We hope this information is helpful. Wishing you good health!
