Learn more about treating gonorrhoea and ureaplasma

STIs or sexually transmitted infections are becoming more and more common amongst men and women who are sexually active. The number is increasing with the change in relationships between a man and woman. Today, people are more open about their sexual relationships, which earlier were bound within a marital relationship. Although this does not have any other implications, it definitely has led to an increase in the sexually transmitted infections that are contracted by people. The STIs can either be bacterial or viral in nature, of which the bacterial infections are more common. The two most popular bacterial STIs are gonorrhoea and ureaplasma urealyticum.

Gonorrhoea – a bacterial STI

This is a common genital tract infection that affects men and women who are in their teens or early 20s. The symptoms, although it is usually asymptomatic, that a man can experience include green, white or yellow discharge from the male sexual organ; pain while urinating, swollen foreskin and painful or tender testicles. Women can experience symptoms such as greenish-yellow or white vaginal discharge, pain while urinating, bleeding after having sex, bleeding in between periods and pain in the lower abdomen. Although this infection is generally asymptomatic, it is important that you get it diagnosed, and if contracted, you take an antibiotic STI treatment for its treatment.

The most popular antibiotic STI treatments used for gonorrhoea are Azithromycin, a 500mg tablet and Cefixime, a 200mg tablet. Azithromycin can be taken as a single 1000mg dosage – two 500mg tablets with a full glass of water. Ideally, it is advisable if you take the pill on an empty stomach. If you are prescribed Cefixime, then you are required to take 200mg tablets to make it a single 400mg dosage. Both these medications are prescription treatments, which is why it is important that you consult a doctor before taking these pills. You can also buy these gonorrhoea treatment online, through a licensed online pharmacy, in order to keep your identity confidential.

Ureaplasma urealyticum – a bacterial STI

Ureaplasma is another commonly experienced bacterial STI amongst sexually active men and women. It is caused by the bacterium known as ureaplasma urealyticum. Like other bacterial STIs, ureaplasma too hardly show any symptoms in the patient. As a result it becomes difficult to diagnose this infection, which leads to it being left untreated. You only come to know of being infected when it has caused severe harm to your reproductive organs. Hence, it is advisable that you take the ureaplasma test two weeks after having an unprotected sexual intercourse.

The antibiotic STI treatments that you can use for treating ureaplasma are Azithromycin and Doxycycline. Azithromycin is a tablet that you are to take as a single 1000mg dosage, with a glass of water. It is advisable to take the tablet on an empty stomach. Doxycycline, on the other hand, is a low dosage treatment, that you are to take over a period of seven days. These ureaplasma urealyticum treatment can be bought on prescription after consulting your doctor. People who want to keep their identities confidential can also opt for licensed online pharmacies.
