Ureaplasma, Mycoplasma, and Chlamydia in men

Or maybe I should say hey ladies =) because it looks like this thread—much like the bacteria itself—is pretty much geared toward women. I’m not entirely sure, but I think I might be the first guy posting here.
Anyway... Ureaplasma. It’s been a year and a half now. I feel like I've cycled through every antibiotic under the sun (Doxycycline, tetracycline...) and it's still hanging around. I can feel it. I'm headed in for a swab in a day or two, fully expecting it to still show up. "Little beast" is honestly a perfect way to describe them.
It’s definitely clear that this thing affects women more than men, but what I really want to know is—since it seems like there aren't many guys in this group (ladies, please tell us how your partners are doing)—did the guys actually have symptoms? Did you notice anything different while they were dealing with it?
Just to be totally honest so I'm not questioning things for no reason: I definitely have it. There's nothing else it could be. My main issue is extreme sensitivity at the tip (from any kind of external contact), sometimes more, sometimes less. Sometimes it doesn't even feel good; it just hurts. And we all know how that ends...
So, that's the gist. This time, the prince needs some help from the ladies in distress =)
Best regards!
Just a stray from another thread; at least there are men over there.
