Mycoplasma genitalium



Mycoplasma genitalium (Mgen) is a curable sexually transmitted infection (STI). It is a type of bacterium or germ that can infect the water passage (urethritis), the neck of the womb (cervicitis), the womb and fallopian tubes (pelvic inflammatory disease). Less commonly it can be found in the rectum (back passage).

However, most people who carry the infection do not experience any problems, and many get rid of MGen infection without any treatment.
