I'd like to ask how Trichomoniasis is caused?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, trichomoniasis is transmitted from the outside. For an infectious disease to spread, it must have three conditions: a source of infection, a transmission route, and susceptible individuals. As for the transmission routes, there are two types: direct transmission (through sexual contact) and indirect transmission. For trichomoniasis, anyone can be infected, but those with a change in vaginal pH or weakened immunity are more susceptible. After contracting trichomoniasis, very few patients can recover on their own, and even if they do, they can still be reinfected. The source of infection for trichomoniasis is those who carry the parasite and objects contaminated by industrial pollution.
