What is tricomosis?

Answer 1

Trichomoniasis, often referred to as trichomonosis, is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the parasite Trichomonas vaginalis. It primarily affects the urogenital tract and can lead to symptoms such as itching, burning, and unusual discharge in women, while men may experience mild symptoms or none at all. The infection can be diagnosed through laboratory tests and is typically treated with antibiotics. If left untreated, trichomoniasis can increase the risk of acquiring other STIs.
