Patient's question:
Recently, I noticed that my discharge is thick, cloudy, and has a bad odor. After examination, it was found to be trichomoniasis. I want to ask if I can still have sex after getting trichomoniasis? Can patients with trichomoniasis have sex?Doctor's answer:
Hello, during the treatment of vaginal inflammation in women, sexual activity must be strictly prohibited. On the one hand, this can prevent friction during intercourse from causing vaginal congestion and further exacerbating the inflammation. On the other hand, it can prevent cross-infection and create a cycle. Since trichomoniasis is contagious, it is recommended that both partners be treated. To prevent recurrence, it is best to wait until the condition is fully cured before resuming sexual activity. Pay close attention to hygiene and sterilization.During the treatment of trichomoniasis, in addition to immediate medical treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of trichomoniasis.
