1. The disease generally has an incubation period of 1 to 3 weeks. Men often feel urethral itching and varying degrees of pain and burning sensation when urinating. The pain is milder than that of gonorrhea. The urethral opening is slightly red and swollen. There is often serous or serous-purulent urethral secretion, which is thinner and less than that of gonorrheal urethritis. White film formation may be found at the urethral opening only in the morning. Some patients have mild or no symptoms and are often misdiagnosed. The main site of infection in female patients is the cervix. The symptoms of urethritis are not obvious, and are often manifested as acute or chronic cervicitis and cervical erosion, increased leucorrhea, or mild dysuria and frequent urination. There may also be no symptoms at all.

2. If the patient has clinical symptoms and a history of unclean sexual intercourse, and urethral secretion smear microscopy shows more than 10 to 15 white blood cells under a high-power microscope (400×) and more than 5 white blood cells under an oil microscope (1000×), and no Gram-negative diplococci, the disease should be highly suspected. The diagnosis of this disease requires etiological examination. Urethral secretion smear examination is now commonly used. If there are more than 10 white blood cells under high-power field of view and no Gram-negative diplococci, the disease should be highly suspected. By staining the secretion smear with specific monoclonal antibodies and observing with immunofluorescence or immunoenzyme labeling technology, the positive rate can reach more than 90%.
