Trichomonas
What is it? Trichomonas (or trich) is a highly contagious microscopic parasite (organism that feeds on a "host" organism). Trichomonas infects both the male and female genital organs.
What are the symptoms? Women and men have different symptoms from trichomonas.
How can you know for sure? A sample of discharge is sent to a medical lab for testing. How is it treated? Trichomonas can be treated with antibiotics which can have the side effects of nausea, vomiting, and headaches. Even after symptoms of trichomonas go away, the infected person must complete all medication or the infection may flare up again. All other sexual partners should be treated at the same time because the infection can spread or partners can reinfect one another. What can happen if you don't take care of it? Discomfort will get worse. The infection can spread to other sexual partners.
