Can male non gonococcal urethritis be transmitted to females

Male non gonococcal infections may be transmitted to females. Non gonococcal urethritis is mainly transmitted through sexual contact and may also be transmitted indirectly through contact with infected individuals' secretions. Male non gonococcal urethritis is a urinary and reproductive system infection caused by pathogens such as mycoplasma and chlamydia. This type of pathogen can be transmitted from males to females through unprotected sexual activity, leading to diseases such as vaginitis and cervicitis in females. During sexual contact, pathogens may enter the female body through mucosal contact, and even if male symptoms are mild or asymptomatic, they are still contagious. After infection, women may experience symptoms such as abnormal vaginal discharge, frequent urination, and painful urination. Some patients may develop pelvic inflammatory disease, which affects fertility. The probability of indirect contact transmission is low, but when sharing personal items such as towels and bathtubs, there is also a certain risk of transmission if infected individuals' secretions are contaminated and not cleaned in a timely manner. When a woman's immune system is weakened, the probability of infection may increase. Pregnancy infection may cause premature birth or neonatal infection, and special attention should be paid to protection. To prevent non gonococcal transmission, it is necessary to avoid high-risk sexual behavior and use condoms. If both parties experience urinary and reproductive system discomfort, they should seek medical examination in a timely manner. Pay attention to personal hygiene in daily life, avoid sharing personal belongings, and infected individuals need to complete standardized treatment and follow-up to confirm recovery. If a woman's partner is diagnosed with non gonococcal urethritis, even if there are no symptoms, it is recommended to undergo screening. Early detection and treatment can reduce the risk of complications.
