Mgen - do I need to tell past/future partner?

Been told I’ve got Mycoplasma genitalium and I’m currently on moxifloxacin for 7 days.

I had sex with someone about 2.5 months ago, and again (only oral) about 1 month ago. I’m also planning to see him again in 2 weeks.

Do I need to:

- tell him about the past encounters (2 months / 1 month ago)?

- tell him before I see him again in 2 weeks?

- or only tell recent partners within a certain time window?

Just trying to understand what’s actually expected here because the guidance online feels unclear.

Chlamydia/gonorrhoea test after one week

Had mild discharge + slight burning when peeing. Went to the clinic 1 week after exposure.

**Microscope test at the clinic found nothing and all NAAT tests for chlamydia/**gonorrhoea
all found negative. (Urine/throat/anal)

They gave me doxycycline anyway. Said it could also be urethritis/NGU.

2days into doxycycline. Still some discharge… normal?

I’m feeling really conflicted and could use some outside perspective.

I live in London and work full time. I do go out and occasionally go on holiday, but I’m not well off at all, especially since my rent went up after moving recently.

My mum and stepdad struggle financially and I help out pretty regularly — usually lending my mum money at least once a month. Earlier this month I lent her £80 because they’re dealing with council tax arrears and other bills. They’ve also had to replace their car recently, so that’s another monthly payment.

What’s making this harder is they’ve also booked a caravan holiday they’re paying off in instalments, even though money is already really tight. I understand wanting a break and wanting nice memories for my nephew, but part of me feels like they keep committing to things they can’t afford and then I feel pressured to help cover the gaps.

Now my mum’s asking if I can help again at payday, but realistically I’d have to go into my overdraft to do it.

I feel guilty because they see me enjoying my life while they struggle, but I also feel like constantly helping might just be enabling bad financial decisions. Has anyone else dealt with this?
