A member asked:

My doctor prescribed 250 mg of azithromycin for 7 days after doing 14 days of doxycycline for ureaplasma. is that too low? i read many others getting a gram and then 500 for like 3 days to finish it. i still have some symptoms hoping to get rid?

Ureaplasma is entirely normal in the genital tract, rarely causes symptoms, and therefore rarely requires treatment. On occasions it seems to be causing a problem, doxycycline usually is sufficient. Probably your symptoms did not clear up because ureaplasma wasn't causing them, not resistance to doxycycline. Clarify with your doctor, or consider an infectious diseases consultation.
