TEA TWAT: Treat or not? Ureaplasma species
Bite sized education from Intimate Ecology
Practitioner resource:
Ureaplasma species
You have screened the vaginal microbiome and one of two Ureaplasma species have come up as positive.
You read all you can and it seems no one can agree if the microbe is problematic or not.
- Is it problematic?
- Do you need to treat it?
- Could it be causing the symptoms your client is reporting?
- What if your client is pregnant or considering pregnancy?
- Do you need to treat the partner?
- What about Mycoplasma- is that the same?
These are all very good and important questions.
Not to mention... HOW DO YOU TREAT IT?
In this video discussion, I talk about the microbe class, different scenarios of symptoms and concern and pregnancy implications. Helping you to decide what impact the microbe could be having.
