What is Trichomonas?

Trichomonas is a protozoan (parasite) that is sexually transmitted disease. It is caused by the organism Trichomonas vaginalis and can be passed to others without knowing it. Women usually get the infection in the vagina. Women also commonly have a coinfection with bacterial vaginosis up to 60-80% of the time. Men usually get the infection in the urethra (urine canal).

Who is at risk?

Women can get the disease from infected men or women. Men usually get it only from infected women. Anyone who has had a new sexual partner or multiple sexual partners is at risk. Sex without protection is another risk factor. Partners who have Trichomonas can reinfect each other if not treated properly. People at age 15-24 are found to be most at risk.

What are the signs and symptoms?

In women, Trichomonas can range from no symptoms in as many as 50% of infections to symptoms ranging from thick vaginal discharge with odor associated with burning itchiness, pain with urination, lower abdominal pain, and pain with intercourse. Sometimes bleeding after intercourse may occur.

In men, up to 75% may not have any symptoms. When symptoms are present, men may feel an irritation or burning feeling inside the penis or have discharge from the penis.

Testing

You should be tested for Trichomonas if you have any of the symptoms listed above or if your partner has trichomonas or symptoms that might be trichomonas. The test is performed by a simple urine test and results are available in 3-5 business days. The APTIMA urine test for Trichomonas is the most recommended and accurate in comparison to all other Trichomonas tests. Trichomonas is increasing in prevalence so there is an increasing trend to screen for Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, and Trichomonas, all with the same APTIMA urine test.

Treatment

Trichomonas can be cured with antibiotic. Once the antibiotic is taken, it is important to avoid intercourse until they and their partners have completed treatment and are without symptoms, which generally takes about a week. Reinfection is possible if sexual partners are not treated or from a new sexual partner.
