No, trichomoniasis does not pass to the baby of a woman who is infected.
Turmeric does not cause trichomoniasis. Trichomoniasis is an infection typically spread by sexual contact.
yes, but the rest is left to your imagination. (try the nursery rhyme that continues ... three men in a tub.)Yes, a female can get trich from another female. The STI trichomoniasis is usually transferred during intercourse from a penis to vagina or vice versa, but it can be passed from an infected vagina to an uninfected vagina.
Babies are not infected with trichomoniasis, but you can catch other germs from changing diapers without washing.
No, bacterial vaginosis can't turn into trichomoniasis. They have different causes. However, they often go together. It's not unusual for someone to be diagnosed with bacterial vaginosis, which is relatively easy to diagnose, and later find out she also has trichomoniasis, which is harder to diagnose.
Yes, trichomoniasis is contagious. It's typically spread by sex with an infected person.
Both trichomoniasis and candida can cause itching, irritation, discharge, and a rash. However, trich is caused by a single-celled parasite spread by sex. Candida is a naturally-occurring occupant of the vagina.
The use of antibiotics is a contributing factor to recurrent trichomoniasis in some women because antibiotics affect the balance of bacteria in the vagina, allowing such organisms as T. vaginalis to multiply more rapidly.
By carrying knowledge to other lands.
It appears that trichomoniasis is one of the few STDs that can be caught through other means as well. Although the protozoan dies rapidly in dry conditions, it appears that you can be infected by sharing a washcloth with an infected person, or possibly by having your genitals come into contact with someone else's infected genital discharge.
Trichomoniasis may be an annoyance, but not a significant health problem for most people. It does not cause more serious disease or affect future fertility. Pregnant women with trichomoniasis may have a higher risk of preterm labor.

It's possible that the urine culture was negative for bacteria, and the health care provider was treating you for trichomoniasis, a parasitic infection that is spread from sex.
