Mycoplasma Genitalium (MG) Test

Mycoplasma genitalium (often called MG or M. gen) is an increasingly recognized STD and a frequent cause of urethritis in men and cervicitis in women. It's easy to overlook because a standard chlamydia and gonorrhea test won't detect it, so if you have persistent symptoms that don't add up, this is the test to consider. No judgment, and nothing is billed to insurance.

Included Tests

Mycoplasma genitalium, NAA
A highly accurate nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) that detects the DNA of Mycoplasma genitalium from a urine sample or genital swab: the recommended method for identifying this often-missed infection.
Mycoplasma genitalium RNA/DNA

Who Should Get This Panel

  • You have urethritis or cervicitis symptoms that persist after treatment

When to Get Tested

Mycoplasma genitalium is generally detectable within about 1–3 weeks after exposure. It's especially worth testing when symptoms of urethritis or cervicitis linger despite treatment for other infections, since MG is a common hidden cause.

Understanding Your Results

Results post to your secure online account, usually in 1–2 business days, in plain English: positive or negative. MG is treatable with antibiotics, though it can be more resistant than other STDs, so a provider may tailor treatment and recommend a follow-up test to confirm it's cleared. Nothing appears on your insurance record.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why isn't this included in a standard STD panel?
Most basic panels only cover chlamydia and gonorrhea. Mycoplasma genitalium needs its own dedicated test, which is why it's so often missed as a cause of lingering symptoms.
Will this show up on my insurance?
No. You pay directly, nothing is billed to insurance, and nothing appears on your insurance record. Your results go only to your secure account, 100% confidential.
How soon after exposure can I test?
Mycoplasma genitalium is generally detectable within about 1–3 weeks after exposure. If symptoms persist, testing is worthwhile even after other STDs come back negative.
What if it's positive?
MG is treatable with antibiotics. Because it can be more resistant than other STDs, a provider may choose a specific regimen and suggest a follow-up test to confirm it's gone.
