Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. If I'm diagnosed with trichomoniasis, how should I treat it?Doctor's answer:
Trichomoniasis is caused by pathogens (toilet seats, bathtubs, underwear) infiltrating the reproductive organs when the body's protective functions are compromised due to bacteria, fungi, viruses, or protozoa, leading to changes in genital and systemic inflammatory responses. Routine examinations typically reveal tightly adhered white, flaky membranes on the labia minora and vaginal mucosa. It is recommended to use liquid therapy for anti-inflammatory treatment (penicillin-based medications, anaerobic bacterial infections), promoting metabolic breakdown, along with local treatments, maintaining perineal hygiene, and avoiding spicy foods.There are many treatment methods for trichomoniasis, but since symptoms vary among patients, the chosen treatments differ accordingly. Therefore, it is advised that patients seek early diagnosis and treatment upon noticing symptoms.
