Found on the surface of urogenital organs ureaplasmas is not always the reason for the treatment. The main criterion is the presence of Ureaplasma in combination with inflammation in the urinary organs. At the same time identify and infections being treated all identified as ureaplasmosis Ureaplasmosis - inflammation of the urogenital system   often associated with other diseases, sexually transmitted diseases.

Basic principles of treatment ureaplasmosis

The main principle is to treat inflammation caused by Ureaplasma (ureaplasmosis) rather than a carriage ureaplasmas that are part of the pathogenic microflora is constantly dwelling on the surface of the mucous membranes of the urogenital organs.

The exception is women who are planning a pregnancy: if they have a carrier ureaplasmas preventive therapy not only women, but also to her husband. This is necessary because during pregnancy the woman is reduced immunity and carriage can go in the inflammatory process, which caused a lot of troubles. Also, during childbirth ureaplasma can penetrate the skin and mucous membranes and cause the child had the disease.

Treatment carrier is sometimes necessary in the case where the carrier to change the infection involves sexual partner. To avoid infection, the carrier ureaplasmas being treated.

The second principle is obligatory treatment of both sexual partners, or to cure infected by their partner again.

The third principle is the temporary abandonment of unprotected sex.

And the fourth principle - not to self-medicate. Adequate complex treatment under laboratory control can hold only a doctor - dermatologist, gynecologist or urologist.

The structure of the complex treatment includes antibiotic therapy, immune reconstitution, restorative therapy, if necessary - local treatment and physiotherapy. In addition, it is necessary to follow a diet: Do not use sharp, salty, fatty, fried foods, sweets and alcoholic beverages.

Antibiotic therapy at ureaplasmosis

In the process of the research revealed that ureaplasmas are sensitive to the three groups of antibiotics: marolidam, fluoroquinolones and tetracyclines.

The most effective drugs are macrolide azithromycin (sumamed, recently to it often develops addictive infectious agent) josamycin (vilprafen) and clarithromycin (klatsid). All of these drugs are well tolerated by patients. Pregnant women are usually prescribed vilprafen Vilprafen - modern highly effective and non-toxic antibiotic .

Among fluoroquinolones ofloxacin (tarivid), ciprofloxacin (tsiprolet), moxifloxacin (Avelox). Tetracycline are also beginning to develop addictive pathogen. Of this group of antibiotics most effective is doxycycline.

With long-term course of the disease and the inflammatory process in the internal organs simultaneously appoint two antibiotics. Today, antibiotics to treat ureaplasmosis not always pick up on the results of bacteriological tests, some experts have more confidence in modern scientific research and recommendations on the matter.

Immunotherapy and restorative treatment

At the core lies ureaplasmosis decrease in the body's defenses. Therefore, some antibiotics in this case, can not do, especially since they also reduce immunity as kill beneficial intestinal microflora.

In order to strengthen immunity Strengthening the immune system - help the immune system   when ureaplasmosis today the most commonly used drugs that stimulate the production of its own (endogenous) interferon, for example, tsikloferon TSikloferon - restores the body's defenses . These drugs not only stimulates antiviral immunity, but also the formation of granulocytes defending the body against infection and stimulates phagocytosis (capture and dissolution of cells of infectious agents within the blood cells - phagocytes) that enhances the body's defenses, as well as complete or partial restoration of immunity when it breaches .

Appointed as vitamins, especially B group, some of which are produced by intestinal microflora and probiotics - drugs containing colonies of beneficial bacteria that reproduce in the gut and restore the normal relationship between the beneficial and harmful microflora (bifidumbakterin, laktobakterin, Probifor etc. ).

Local treatment and physiotherapy

Local treatment is not always used, it is mainly used for long-term chronic processes occurring. Conducted therapeutic baths with disinfectant solution, instillation (instillation) of drugs into the urethra and bladder. In addition, it restores the normal microflora of the vagina using laktobakterina.

When strikrure (narrowing of the urethra in men are special procedures for its expansion (probing).

Physical therapy is also prescribed for chronic processes. Depending on the patient appointed electrophoresis with drugs, magnetic, thermal treatments and so on.

The criteria for cure men are negative tests in a month after the end of treatment. Women stricter criteria for cure: it is considered healthy if, within three menstrual cycles she had not been detected ureaplasma.

Intrigue ureaplasmosis that the symptoms the women are practically invisible. Remaining undetected, the disease is a long time and like any inflammatory process that leads to the formation of adhesions in the internal genitals. And this in turn is the cause of infertility.

What happens in a woman's body when ureaplasmosis

The first manifestations ureaplasmosis in women is usually colpitis - inflammation in the vaginal area. Gradually, during the regular exacerbations ureaplasmosis, the inflammatory process proceeds to the channel of the cervix (cervicitis), the mucous membrane of the uterus (endometrium) of the uterus - fallopian tubes and ovaries (salpingo-ophoritis or adnexitis). Simultaneously, the infection can spread to the urinary tract, causing the first defeat of the bladder (cystitis), then go up, affecting the ureters and kidneys.

The gradual spread of low-intensity inflammatory process leads to the formation of adhesions - proliferation of connective tissue in the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries. This may prevent conception (if there are spikes in the ovary, the egg just does not go beyond it), or the promotion of a fertilized egg into the fallopian tube for introduction into the uterine wall (with spikes in the fallopian tube - in this case, often develop an ectopic pregnancy).

However, infertility in developing ureaplasmosis not always. In this case, uraeplazmoz sometimes taped in preparation for pregnancy or during pregnancy has begun. Pregnancy on the background of sluggish inflammation can occur with complications and can result in premature termination. May suffer and the fruit - infecting its upward path through the fetal membranes may occur at any stage of pregnancy. Infection is introduced mainly in child's airway causing intrauterine infection. In addition, the child can become infected during delivery, passing through the mother's birth canal, the patient ureaplasmosis.

The woman after childbirth can begin postpartum fever, indicating an exacerbation of the inflammatory process. The same aggravation of the inflammatory process can begin after the abortion. In doing so, ureaplazmennoj can join any other bacterial infection.

It was also established that in the context ureaplasmosis often develops HPV infection, which is often the cause of cervical cancer.

Signs ureaplasmosis woman

The risk of infection ureaplasmosis are women, who often change their sexual partners: the risk has been a partner at change twice a year. The incubation period of the disease (time from infection to the onset of his symptoms) has blurred the boundaries: from a few days to several months, but the average is about a month.

Obviously this is due to the fact that some women get sick immediately, but some time are carriers ureaplasmas and only with the weakening of the body under the influence of severe physical or emotional stress suffered by the general conditions, hypothermia or overheating and so on begins the inflammatory process in the genital area bodies.

The first signs of inflammation of the vagina (vaginitis) at ureaplasmosis are colorless transparent allocation Transparent allocation when they are normal? . The most common symptoms of vaginitis are combined with signs of cystitis - frequent painful urination.

But sometimes ureaplasmas multiply in the vagina without causing inflammation. This usually occurs when there is the vagina and other opportunistic microflora, such as Gardnerella. This leads to the appearance of signs of dysbiosis Signs of dysbiosis - depend on the localization process   vagina - the predominance of pathogenic microflora on a natural, most of whom are lactobacilli. When dysbacteriosis vagina Dysbacteriosis vagina - how to fight?   (bacterial vaginosis), there are abundant discharge with an unpleasant fishy odor.

With the spread of the inflammatory process in the internal reproductive organs (uterus and its appendages), pain in the abdomen, malaise, weakness and sometimes fever, but small numbers.

What if a woman showed symptoms of inflammation of urogenital organs

Self-medication can not deal with - this will lead to the infection "Hidden" and then after a while the show itself again. With each such aggravation will increase the number of adhesions and increase the risk of infertility. Therefore, you must immediately seek medical attention.

To identify ureaplasmosis Ureaplasmosis - inflammation of the urogenital system   perform the following analyzes: smear under the microscope (in most cases to identify such a way ureaplasmas impossible, but it can be detected other pathogens and pathogenic microflora), crop selections on nutrient media (detected infectious agent, the amount and sensitivity to antibiotics) polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR - detection of pathogen DNA, a very precise analysis), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay - detection of antibodies against infectious agents.

Only after diagnosis is the treatment ureaplasmosis controlled laboratory studies.
