Does trichomoniasis cause infertility?

Patient's question:

Patient Gender: Female
I have been married to my husband for 3 months, and we have not taken any contraceptive measures. However, I did not get pregnant and noticed itching at the vaginal opening. My vaginal discharge is light yellow and has bubbles coming out of the vagina. The doctor said it is trichomoniasis. Hello, is the reason I am not pregnant due to having trichomoniasis?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, trichomoniasis must heal on its own before pregnancy can occur. If you contract trichomoniasis again, symptoms may reappear, such as increased vaginal discharge, itching, and burning sensation in the external genitalia. Some people may have no symptoms at all. How can trichomoniasis in the vagina be completely treated? Since trichomoniasis often occurs alongside trichomoniasis in the urinary system and intestines, and the parasite can also hide in the cervical glands and the lower urinary tract, simple local medication is not easy to eradicate completely. It is necessary to use systemic medication to achieve a cure.
