Mycoplasma mainly exists in the mucosa of human and animal cavities. Mycoplasma genital tract infections are associated with non-gonococcal urethritis or cervicitis, and can also cause prostatitis, epididymitis, salpingitis, abortion, stillbirth, and infertility. The main pathogens causing non-gonococcal urethritis in humans are Ureaplasma urealyticum, Mycoplasma hominis, and Mycoplasma genitalium. Mycoplasma may also parasitize in the urogenital tracts of normal people.
Mycoplasma infection itself can lead to infertility, miscarriage, premature birth, low birth weight babies, and fetal malformations. However, first it depends on during which month of pregnancy you were infected. If it was during the early stage of pregnancy, it might affect the fetus; if it was during the middle or late stages when the fetus's organs have developed better, the impact would be less significant.
Mycoplasma and Chlamydia can be transmitted vertically through the placenta or spread upward from the lower genital tract of pregnant women, leading to intrauterine infection. Both can result in a series of adverse consequences such as miscarriage, premature birth, intrauterine growth retardation of the fetus, low birth weight, premature rupture of membranes, and even fetal death in utero. During delivery, when the fetus passes through the birth canal, it is also easily infected. Common conditions include neonatal conjunctivitis, followed by neonatal respiratory infections, and others such as otitis media and pharyngitis. Mycoplasma and Chlamydia seriously affect both the fetus and the mother, leading to health problems for families and newborns. For the treatment of diseases caused by mycoplasma and chlamydia, early treatment is necessary, and treatment should be based on the specific condition for targeted therapy.
