Anonymous STD testing on mycoplasma genitalium
Because an infection with mycoplasma is difficult to recognize, it is strongly advised to do a mycoplasma test. Especially when symptoms are present. A mycoplasma test can not be done immediately after unsafe sex but needs to be postponed for a couple of weeks. The test can only show an infection after the window fase has passed. For more information get incontact with our specialised physicians.
In men a urinalysis (analysis of a urine sample) on mycoplasma genitalium will be done. In women a test on mycoplasma will be done on a ‘selfswab’. This is a smear test of the vaginal mucosa which you can either perform yourself or you can have done by our specialised physicians.

If you test negative (meaning you don’t have this STD) it is still important to keep on or start using protection when having sex in the future. This way you can prevent getting mycoplasma in the future and the contraction of another STD. Take a look at the risk factors for getting mycoplasma.
Treatment of mycoplasma genitalium
An infection with mycoplasma is easily treated with a course of antibiotics. This course is provided to you by the OneDayClinic as well. After completion of the treatment against this STD the bacteria will be gone. This means you can not transfer the bacteria to your (sex) partner. However remember, after completion of the treatment you will not be immune for mycoplasma meaning you can still contract the bacteria again in the future.
Do you have a regular (sex) partner? Contact one of our specialized physicians on testing or treating your partner. Always have safe sex until at least one week after completion of the antibiotic course. No regular partner? Remember to still use protection when having sex in the future. In addition it is important to warn all your (ex-)partners of at least the past half year about this STD. They might have gotten in contact with the bacteria through you, or you could have contracted it through of them. Even if they appear to have no symptoms it is better for them to get tested. By doing so they can also protect any of their following partners from contracting this STD/STI.

Possible consequences of untreated mycoplasma
Always, even when in doubt, make a timely appointment at the OneDayClinic to get tested. Untreated mycoplasma genitalium can prove to have grave consequences.
Consequences in women
Mycoplasma Genitalium is a very new condition. There is currently a lot of research being performed on this until know fairly unknown disease. Researches are still trying to get consensus on the possible consequences of this infection. Until know scientists have only proven thatan infection with Mycoplasma Genitalium could lead to infertility.
Consequences in men
Also in men the possible future consequences of contracting Mycoplasma Genitalium are fairly unknown. For men the same goes, an infection with Mycoplasma could lead to infertility.
Risk factors
Because mycoplasma is a relatively unknown disease we do not yet know all about this disease. Scientist think that an infection with mycoplasma might lead to (possible) serious consequences. Even when you are not experiencing any symptoms you could be carrying and spreading this bacteria by having unsafe sex. A test on mycoplasma is the only way to be sure if you contracted this infection. Get tested after any one of the following:
- Having unsafe sex;
- Broken/torn condom;
- The wish to have unprotected sex in a new relationship;
- Getting warned by a(n ex-)partner;
- Pregnant and want to prevent your child to get infected;

The STD examination at OneDayClinic
We often get the question how an STD examination at our clinic works. Below you can read the steps we take to test and treat you on STD’s.
How does it go after making an appointment?
Which STD can I have?
What should I pay attention to prior to the test?
The man must not have been to the toilet for at least three hours or take morning urine with him.
Do I have to take my clothes off?
- Urine test
The research on chlamydia and gonorrhea in men can be done with the aid of a urine sample. When you are infected, bacteria can be found, especially in the urine. In women, a selfswab is more reliable than a urine test.
- Blood test
Syphilis, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can be demonstrated by a blood test.
- Selfswab smear
With a smear, fluid is removed from the vagina. This determines the presence of chlamydia and gonorrhea. This does not hurt. Because chlamydia and gonorrhea can be found at different locations (vaginal / anal / throat), extra swabs may have to be taken. The doctor will determine in the initial interview whether this is necessary.
Do you have complaints that point to a STD? Do not wait and make an appointment for an STD test.
