What is Genitourinary Mycoplasma infection?

With the deepening of research work and the emergence of new selective media, new species of mycoplasma have increased. To date, mycoplasma that can cause human sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) or parasitize the human genitourinary tract include mycoplasmaurealyticum, mycoplasmahominis (MH), mycoplasmagenitalium (MG), mycoplasmapenetrans (Mpe), Mycoplasma fermentans (MF), mycoplasmasalivarium (MS), mycoplasmaspermatophilum (MSp) and mycoplasma primatum (Mpr). There is evidence that these mycoplasmas (MH, MG) can cause genitourinary infections in humans and are common pathogens of non-gonorrhea urethritis (NGU).
