[|Human|] Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Hello i am a health 29 yr old female with two children and my boyfriend is a divorcee with no children however he recently said he was diagnosed with ureaplasma, while he has been overseas in Bahrain in the military and we havent been sexually active since Oct 2010. And he thinks it may have been from me however, i have never had any abnormalities in my pap smears in all my years (since 16). I would like to know what exactly causes ureaplasma in males..ive heard several things, it can be from a female carrier (who is infertile like his ex-wife) or from anal.But i am just not sure. I just want to get some clear answers...could I have given this to him Ive had BV since weve been sexually active... Is he the cause for it? What causes ureaplasma? Is it linked to HPV?  Do I have reason to believe hes been unfaithful since he got to Bahrain if this is an STD or could he have contracted this from his ex-wife since the organism has been known to lie dormant for a while ....thank u for your time
[|AI|]  Hello, Culture of genital secretions or swab or urine will be helpful to rule out this. If it is pathogenic and causing symptoms then should be treated.  Otherwise, it may cause problems like infertility or frequent urinary tract infections. Taking antibiotics like Azithromycin is very effective for this. It is better for you and your partner take it at same time.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.  Rammstein, General Surgeon
