If you are experiencing symptoms of an infection (especially if you have been tested and do not have Chlamydia or Gonorrhoea) then you can be tested for these bacteria by visiting a sexual health specialist. Testing is usually done via a urine sample or swab test. Testing for these two bacteria is not available on the NHS. We recommend The STI Clinic for sexual health screens. The STI Clinic can do individual or joint tests for Ureaplasma and Mycoplasma. They also offer a full sexual health screen, which includes a search for these bacteria. Antibiotics are free if you test positive for anything.
