Mycoplasma genitalium has been well described as a pathogen in men with acute and chronic nongonococcal urethritis (NGU) and has been associated with cervicitis in women (1). Subjects were 297 young people with gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomonas, or nongonococcal urethritis (or a sexual contact of a person with one of these infections). The history of this research effort traces back to the discovery of a previously unknown microorganism in the genitourinary tract of two men suffering from nongonococcal urethritis (NGU). |
