How to treat trichomoniasis?

Patient's question:

A 39-year-old female friend has been diagnosed with trichomoniasis, and she is very scared. She doesn't know how serious it is and how to treat it. How is trichomoniasis treated?

Doctor's answer:

Trichomoniasis patients can choose to use metronidazole for treatment, but trichomoniasis is not suitable for vaginal medication. Therefore, in general, patients with trichomoniasis need a joint treatment with their partner, using medication simultaneously. It is necessary to repeatedly check if the vaginal discharge and trichomonads have completely disappeared. The medication should only be stopped after ensuring complete recovery.
