Trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by Trichomonas vaginalis infection; Trichomonas vaginalis, or TV, is a parasite that lives in moist environments in the human body, such as the genitourinary tract. If you have had sexual intercourse with an infected person without a condom, you may be at risk of contracting this infection.

An untreated trichomoniasis infection can last for weeks, months, and even years in women. In men, trich infections usually last no more than 10 days.

Vaginal trichomoniasis symptoms in women can include a yellow or green vaginal discharge, pain during sexual intercourse, painful urination, and vulval itching. Among men, trichomoniasis often has no symptoms. Men who do have symptoms often experience inflammation of the urethra, which can result in pain while urinating.

Pregnant women who are infected with trichomoniasis are more likely to have a preterm delivery and deliver a low birth weight newborn.

How is trichomoniasis treated?

A trichomonas infection is treated with antibiotic medications like metronidazole or tinidazole.
