The symptoms are dysuria , which is pain (usually burning pain) on urination (micturition). In the diagnostic approach to urethritis, physicians classify the disease as gonococcal urethritis or non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU), based on its causation. Non-gonococcal urethritis, sometimes called non-specific urethritis (NSU), has both infectious and non-infectious causes. This medical article is a stub .

United States Naval Flight Surgeon's Manual: Third Edition 1991: Chapter 11: Sexually Transmitted Diseases Nongonococcal Urethritis (NGU), Mucopurulent Cervicitis Naval Aerospace Medical Institute Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed Introduction Nongonococcal urethritis (NGU) is the preferred term, rather than the obsolete "nonspecific urethritis" (NSU). NGU includes the entity postgonococcal urethritis (PGU), which represents a dual infection with gonorrhea (two to eight days incubation) and the agents of NGU (10 to 20 days incubation). NGU is a sexually transmitted disease due to Chlamydia trachomatis (40 to 50 percent of cases), Ureaplasma urealyticum (30 to 50 percent), or an unknown third agent. Other STD pathogens rarely , if ever play a role. Epidemiology In the U.S., NGU is about 2.5 times as common as gonorrhea. In overseas military populations, gonorrhea is slightly more common, but the incidence of either may reach several hundred per 1000 men per year. One aircraft carrier study demonstrated that, statistically , each crew member had at least one case of urethritis during a year's cruise. The analogous disease in women is chlamydia endocervicitis, but it may also present as the acute urethral syndrome or dysuria-pyuria syndrome.

NGU refers to an infection of the urethra (the tube running from the bladder through the penis in men or the labia in women through which urine passes) caused by some agent other than gonorrhea. This infection can be caused by any of several different organisms, although the most frequent cause of NGU is a germ called chlamydia, and is a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Who gets NGU? NGU is most often found in men since the organisms causing this infection are sexually transmitted and the female urethra is seldom infected during intercourse. Men between the ages of 15 and 30 having multiple sex partners are most at risk for this infection. How is NGU spread?

The incubation period varies considerably but it is believed to be from one week to one month. The symptoms are usually identical to gonorrrhea however the discharge is usually thinner.

It can spread to the bladder which will cause pain during urinating and perhaps some bleeding. It may also spread to the testicles which will result in swelling and tenderness. If NSU spreads to the prostate there will be pain in the groin. How is nonspecific urethritis contracted?

Urethritis may be caused by bacteria, fungi, or viruses. In women, the organisms generally travel to the urethra from the vagina. In most women, the bacteria come from the lower intestine and reach the vagina from the anus. Men are much less likely to develop urethritis because the opening of the male urethra is far removed from the anus and is not as easily injured during sexual intercourse.

Chlamydia Non-specific Urethritis Warts Herpes Thrush Bacterial Vaginosis ... Group B Streptoccus (NSU) NSU is mainly detected in men and is a vague diagnosis. For a start look at what the diagnosis means: the urethra is what men pee out of and anything with "-itis" attached to it indicates inflammation (for example the appendix and appendicitis). In other words NSU means 'non-specific inflammation from where you pee'. Does that sound very scientific to you? Exactly - it’s a vague diagnosis. The dilemma is that while inflammation may not necessarily indicate infection, a lot of infections, most notably chlamydia, do cause inflammation. In addition inflammation can be diagnosed on the urethral sample (by looking for evidence of pus cells under the microscope) while you wait, whereas waiting to see if chlamydia is the cause of it takes up to a week. So in effect the doctor’s thought process works like this: "My patient has evidence of inflammation (i.e. has NSU) and I know that NSU can be caused by infections such as chlamydia (40% of the time in fact) but it will take me a week to find out so I’ll treat him with antibiotics now to cover that option and get a head-start". If it turns out that chlamydia is the cause of the NSU (when the result comes back in a week), then there has been no delay in treatment, you’re well on the way to recovery and you should refer to the
