Abstract

Mycoplasma genitalium is a sexually transmitted bacterium associated with nongonococcal urethritis (NGU) in men and cervicitis, endometritis, and pelvic inflammatory disease in women. Effective treatment is challenging due to the inherent, and increasingly acquired, antibiotic resistance in this pathogen.
