Hello doctor, I had a risky sexual relationship (without a condom) with a person who was diagnosed with mycoplasma hominis (MH). 10 days after sexual intercourse I started to feel testicular pain. I have no other symptoms, no discharge, no fever, the pain is sometimes sharp and sometimes "dull". I went to a medical center and they gave me doxycycline 100 mg twice a day for 14 days. The first week the pain persisted, the second week the pain became less evident. Two days after completing my treatment with doxycycline, the testicular pain returned so they gave me 1 g of azithromycin as a single dose. The two days after azithromycin I had no testicular pain, but on the third day the pain returned. What do you recommend and why is the antibiotic not working?
