Trichomoniasis

Trichomoniasis is treated with metronidazole.

Trichomoniasis is a parasite that lives in the vaginal canal in females, and the urethra in males. It is specifically transferred by sexual contact. If neither partner claims to have it, then neither partner should contract it. If someone has contracted it, then someone else has a lot of explaining to do.
Just like any STD, Trichomoniasis is transmitted during sexual contact, be it penis to vagina, vulva to vulva, or occasionally penile/anal contact. Therefore it is not possible for a partner to spontaneously develop a trichomoniasis infection.

That being said, Trichomonaisis can be asymptomatic in many, or may simply be latent for a period of time and not producing any symptoms.

Gonorrhea is a bacterial STD, curable with Rocephin (ceftriaxone). Trichomoniais is caused by a parasitic protozoan, and is curable with Flagyl (metronidazole). Both are spread by sex, but oral or anal infection do not occur with trich, and men don't get trich from having sex with men. Gonorrhea can have long-term consequences if untreated, but trichomoniasis does not.

The trichomonas organism moves using a number of long flagella. It's movement is quite distinctive under the microscope.

No.

yes

Trichomoniasis uses flagella for movement. This movement is very distinctive under the microscope.

Yes, there is an increasing problem with antibiotic resistance in trichomoniasis.

Warts do not cause trichomoniasis.

Trichomoniasis is a condition, and doesn't have a procedure code, but a diagnosis code. The ICD9 codes for trich start with 131.

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.

Trichomoniasis will not cause a missed period.

There is not reliable testing for men. Your ex is not being honest.

Trichomonas is a vaginal infection caused by a protozoan parasite. Both men and women can get trich.

Two grams of metronodazole is the one-day treatment for trichomoniasis. Although the treatment is a single dose, you should avoid sex for seven days after treatment -- even sex with a condom.

No, supirocin will not treat Trich.

Trichomoniasis can occur both during the menstrual period and at other times. Odor may be more noticeable during menstruation due to the increased pH of the vagina.

Trichomoniasis is an infection caused by parasitic protozoa. In short, it's an STD. You can easily get it from having sex with an infected person, but an IUD won't cause it.

I have no idea where you heard this but headache can not cause it. it's caused by a parasite.

Trichomoniasis can cause itching and a frothy discharge, usually yellow in color. Some patients have symptoms within a week, but not all.

Trichomoniasis is not an epidemic disease. It is endemic.
