ureaplasma parvum treatment (uk)

Hi,

I wanted to ask for some advice, I’ve tested positive for ureaplasma parvum after 2 years of issues. Which have sadly been ignored because the uk don’t believe in ureaplasma or that it actually causes any issues. Due to this 5 months ago I went on doxy and metro for two weeks for suspected pid. (The doctor gave up on me) Which didn’t change a single one of my symptoms. My bf at the time wasn’t treated with anything cos I have no stis.

Fast forward to now I went private and took a swab test that found ureaplasma parvum but I’m stressing cos he has only prescribed me 1 - 500mg and then 4 days of 250mg of Azithromycin. And I keep seeing online that is not enough to get rid of the bacteria and that’s what me and my partner are taking but I’m stressing cos he’s type 1 diabetic and can’t keep taking multiple rounds as it could do him damage.
I also just want this to be gone for my life forever it’s been an awful 2 years not being believed due to the nhs.

I’m also taking Clindamycin gel for 5 days to but unsure if I take this at the same time as the other antibiotic cos I heard that if I do the bv treatment first it would make the Azithromycin have a better chance of clearing it.

Any help on this topic would be great and if I should question it with my private gyno

Many thanks

Help with treating ueraplsma parvum

Advice!
Will 500mg of Azithromycin for 1 day and then 250mg for 4 days be enough to cure my ueraplsma.
I was on doxy for 14 days 5 months ago to treat suspected pid which was actually misdiagnosed as I have found out recently I have actually got ueraplsma parvum, bv and thrush.
I’ve been having symptoms for over 2 years since the I had a coil put in and taken out.
My bf will be receiving the same exact treatments but I’m scared it’s not going to work and we have to do the treatment again and my bf won’t believe that this is not from me cheating - I haven’t and I’m he hasn’t.

My main question is will this be enough to cure it alongside the bv and thrush medication and not having any sex with him for 4 weeks until the test of cure.

It’s really stressing me out that it might not clear it because the 14 days of doxy and metro did not change a single symptom of mine but I would have been reinfected by my current partner because we were unaware of the actual cause of my symptoms. And now both of us will be treated at the same time.
I just don’t know what to do and want this to be over.
Would it be beneficial for me only to do 7 days of doxy following Azithromycin will it get rid of it for me and my partner

Many thanks
