ABSTRACT
Sexually transmitted infection (STI) rates in the U.S. have rapidly increased in the past decade. Although most of this rise is due to syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, less common STIs are also rising, including Mycoplasma genitalium. We present the case of a 40-year-old male with a history of virologically-suppressed human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection who presented with recurrent nongonococcal urethritis. Unfortunately, his symptoms were refractory to multiple empiric drug regimens, and he was eventually diagnosed with Mycoplasma genitalium. After consultation with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention STI branch, minocycline was successfully used to eradicate the infection.
