Patient's question:
Last month on the 20th, I went to the hospital for a check-up. During the urinalysis, trichomoniasis and vaginal inflammation were detected, which were quite severe. That night, I received some vitamin infusions and Cefixime. The next day, when I visited the gynecology department, the doctor said it was not necessary to receive Cefixime, as it could affect the child. Instead, I was prescribed penicillin. After receiving penicillin for six days, the four proteins that were previously detected had disappeared. However, there was still inflammation. Later, the doctor recommended taking potassium penicillin V. When I went to the pharmacy, the pharmacist said that penicillin should not be used during pregnancy, so I bought many vaginal washes. After using them, the condition improved slightly. It has been more than half a month now, but it has not been completely cured yet. By the end of next month, it will be my due date. I saw online thatDoctor's answer:
The vaginal trichomonas cannot be seen with the naked eye; it can only be observed under a microscope. If it is confirmed that there is a trichomoniasis infection, this can be treated with medication, and it has no effect on the fetus, so you can rest assured about that. Trichomoniasis is treated with metronidazole, and generally, a week of medication is sufficient. After taking the medication, it is necessary to follow up to see if it has been completely cured.
