Brief answer....although sounds worrisome but there is nothing to worry.
Detailed answer....
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Let me first explain you about this problem and then I will address your concerns.
Ureaplasma urealyticum is a bacterial infection which is found in the
cervix or vagina of women.
This is basically a
sexually transmitted disease and has been transmitted to you by sexual intercourse by your husband,but it doesn't mean that your husband has been cheating on you.
This infection can be naturally present in the
prostate gland of the male and remain there undetected for many years.So there is nothing to become suspicious and doubtful about your husband.
This infection can cause
meningitis as well as
pneumonia in the child and so it is best for you to go for Caesarian section for delivery.The best thing about this infection is that it is an easily treatable infection and both partners are treated simultaneously.
A repeat test is done after two weeks of finishing the antibiotic course.
In case infection is still there,then repeat treatment with a different antibiotic is done.
Now coming to your concerns..
1.... Take the antibiotic course as advised by your doctor.
2... As explained above,since there are chances of infection to your child by normal delivery,hence best is to go for Caesarian section delivery.
At the end I would say that there is absolutely nothing to worry and there is no need to think that your world has crashed down.
I hope it helps,however you may revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck to both of you and enjoy the arrival of a new beautiful soul in your life,without worrying anything.
Thanks
