Patient's question:
What medication is most effective for trichomoniasis? Is there any way to solve it? It has been troubling me for a long time, and I feel very uncomfortable. I need a solution.Doctor's answer:
Hello, white or grayish-yellow frothy leukorrhea: a characteristic of trichomoniasis, which may be accompanied by external genital itching. It is recommended to maintain external genital cleanliness and dryness, and avoid scratching. Try to avoid spicy and irritating foods as much as possible. Change underwear frequently, or use warm water for disinfection. Do not wash with other clothes, socks, etc., to prevent cross-infection. Currently, systemic treatment is the basis, using metronidazole orally. For stubborn trichomoniasis, local vaginal treatment can be implemented while systemic treatment is ongoing, i.e., inserting metronidazole (or tinidazole, ovadine) into the posterior fornix of the vagina, once daily or every other day. Additionally, during the treatment of trichomoniasis, patients should receive timely treatment in addition to other measures.
