About Mycoplasma Genitalium (MG, Mgen) Urine Test in El Cajon

Mycoplasma genitalium (often abbreviated as MG or Mgen) is a sexually transmitted bacterium that was first identified in the 1980s.

MG can infect the urethra and, in some cases, the cervix or rectum. Many people who carry the bacterium do not develop noticeable symptoms, while others may experience discharge, burning during urination, or pelvic discomfort.

Because the signs of MG overlap with those of chlamydia and gonorrhea, laboratory testing is necessary to distinguish it from other infections. The MG Urine Test uses nucleic acid amplification to detect genetic material from the bacterium in a urine specimen.

Testing may be considered for individuals who have persistent urethral or cervical symptoms after treatment for other STIs, or for those who have been in contact with someone diagnosed with MG. A positive result indicates the presence of the bacterium, while a negative result suggests it was not detected at the time of testing.
