The Mycoplasma genitalium Resistance ? Urine or Vaginal test is a diagnostic test used to detect resistance mutations in Mycoplasma genitalium (M. genitalium) strains present in urine or vaginal samples. The test is important because it provides critical information about the antibiotic resistance profile of M. genitalium strains. This enables healthcare providers to choose the most effective treatment, improving patient outcomes, preventing complications, and reducing the spread of resistant strains. The test also supports antibiotic stewardship and public health surveillance efforts, ensuring the continued effectiveness of antibiotics and informing public health strategies.
