A member asked:

Which is better for treating trich, mycoplasma genit and hominis, ureaplasma urealyticum. doxycycline or azithromycin?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See Below...: Trichomonas doesn't respond to either Doxycycline or Azithromycin. It is usually treated with Metronidazole. Mycoplasma and ureaplasma responds to either Azithromycin or Doxycycline. Best wishes!
