Ureaplasma urealyticum infection is a type of non-gonococcal urethritis transmitted through unhygienic sexual contact. It requires antibiotic treatment; commonly used clinical agents include doxycycline and minocycline. Quinolone antibiotics, such as levofloxacin, may also be employed. Additionally, sexual partners of infected individuals should also receive treatment, and maintaining good personal hygiene in daily life is essential.
