title: Persistent urethritis due to Ureaplasma urealyticum in conjugal or stable partnerships.
abstract: A study of four conjugal partnerships is described in which the male partners presented with persistent or recurrent non-gonococcal, non-chlamydial, but ureaplasma positive urethritis. Resolution of symptoms and signs in the male partners was achieved only after treatment to eliminate Ureaplasma urealyticum from both partners.
