examination of discharge) shows the
infection-causing organisms in
vaginal fluids.

5. Signs in Men

in men.
• Men are treated if the infection is
diagnosed in any of their sexual
partners.
• Men may also be treated if they have
ongoing symptoms of urethral
burning or itching despite treatment
for gonorrhea and chlamydia.

6. S’More Facts
• 70% of infected people do not have
any signs or symptoms.
• Trichomoniasis can cause genital
inflammation that makes it easier
to get infected with the HIV virus
• 7.4 Million people get
Trichomoniasis each year

7. Treatment
– The antibiotic metronidazole is commonly used
to cure the infection. A newer drug, called
Tinidazole may be used.
– You should not drink alcohol while taking the
medicine and for 48 hours afterwards. Doing so
can cause severe nausea, abdominal pain, and
vomiting.
– Avoid sexual intercourse until treatment has
been completed. Sexual partners should be
treated at the same time, even if they have no
symptoms.

8. Prognosis
• The prognosis for treated
trichomoniasis is excellent.
The cure rate is 90% if all
sexual partners are treated at
the same time. If any sexual
partner is not
treated, reinfection is likely.
