What is ureaplasmosis?
Infection ureaplasmism occurs in sexual path
with its carrier or sick. Also possible is the intrauterine path of infection when
The infection is transmitted from the mother to the child through the oily water, or in
Process of childbirth. The incubation period of ureaplasmosis is 2-4 weeks. At
This is the beginning of the disease most often flows asymptomatic and at this time
The carrier of ureaplasma can infect the second partner, not even guessing
it is. In this and the deceit of the disease that may have for human
The body is quite serious consequences.
First of all, these are inflammatory processes that
Ureaplasm can cause in all departments of the urogenital system. At the same time without
adequate treatment, the disease can go into a chronic shape and become
The reason for the appearance of prostatitis, collision, endometritis, cystitis, pyelonephritis,
Vesiculitis, inflammation of the appendages of the uterus, the formation of adhesions in the uterine pipes.
Everything
more experts converge that such a kind of male infertility as
Asthenospermia, at which there is a decrease in the mobility of spermatozoa,
also caused by this microorganism. In the course of research it was found that
Ureaplasmism parasitates on spermatozoa and such contact leads to a loss
viability and mobility of the latter. Also this pathogen may have
Direct relation to such a disease as arthritis, causing inflammation of the joints.
To identify ureaplasma more expedient to use
More accurate diagnostic methods - PCR (polymerase chain reaction method), IFA
(enzyme immunoassay analysis) and bacterial sowing, since the results of the general
smear can give an unreliable, blurred picture. Bacterial sowing method,
which lies in observing the growth of culture on nutritional environments,
allows not only to accurately identify the presence of infection, but also determine how much
It is sensitive to one or another antibiotics, which plays a big role when
Selection of drug treatment drugs.
Risk factors Ureaplasmosis
- Sex without a condom;
- early start of sexual life;
- a large number of sexual partners;
- a history of gynecological diseases or
sexually transmitted diseases;
- age group up to 30 years.
The presence of ureaplasmosis in men can manifest itself at the end
Incubation period The appearance of urethritis symptoms: highlighting from
urethra in the morning, burning in urination, increase
Temperatures of the body, deterioration of the general condition, Balanopostitis (White Education
Waters on the head of the penis). If the urethritis has sluggish
character as well as constant relapses,
in which allocations appear, then spontaneously disappear, it can
lead to inflammation of the appendage of eggs and eggs.
In a woman, ureaplasmosis is manifested by vaginal discharge,
Frequent and painful urination, pain is possible at the bottom of the abdomen.
All these symptoms can manifest themselves through quite a long
time after the start of the disease. This is more dependent on the state
Immune system. In medical practice, there were cases when due
low pathogenicity ureaplasma or thanks to good resistance
the body, the causative agent did not show itself for a long time. In such cases
The planned regular inspections are greater importance, during which
The necessary analyzes are held, allowing to identify causative agents of diseases
even without the presence of characteristic symptoms.
It is very important to understand what to do
self-treatment during the detection of pathogenic microorganisms is unacceptable, since
This leads to an increase in their resistance to one or another drugs, which, in its
queue will complicate the process of cure in the future.
Based on the results of analyzes, the doctor appoints
Appropriate treatment of ureaplasmosis: antibacterial therapy, preparations for
Raising immunity, local bactericidal agents, physiotics, men
Prostatic massage can be assigned. Treatment is carried out at the same time
At both partners, the control analyzes are taken, as before the start of treatment,
And after a while after it. At the time of treatment it is necessary to observe
diet, abandon alcohol and refrain from sex life.
