Patient's question:
A woman is 53 years old this year, and her mental state has not been very good recently. She only found out that she was sick. Please ask: What is trichomoniasis?Doctor's answer:
Trichomoniasis is a type of vaginitis, and vaginitis is a very common gynecological disease. As the saying goes, except for newborn infants and men, no woman can say she has never had vaginitis. Trichomoniasis is an inflammation caused by the transmission of Trichomonas vaginalis. Its main symptoms include a slightly burning sensation in the vagina, increased vaginal discharge, and a bad odor. During follow-up examinations, we observe that the discharge appears foamy. The treatment is relatively simple, and it can occur in people of all ages, from infants to perimenopausal women.
