A member asked:

Can i be tested for trich, mycoplasma genit and hominis, ureaplasma urealyticum? clear of chlam and gon but have sx of pid.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Trichomonas can be seen under the microscope in the doctors office in a sample of vaginal discharge. It is a bacterium with a flagellum that swims around. There are tests for mycoplasma and ureaplasma but they are very specialized and not usually available at a standard doctor's office. Its actually easier to treat them empirically rather than test for them. Best wishes!
