How is trichomoniasis treated?

Patient's question:

These past few days, my vagina has been itchy, and my discharge is abnormal with a bad odor and slightly yellowish. After a specific examination, I was diagnosed with trichomoniasis. Hello, how is gynecological trichomoniasis treated? I used the medicine given by the doctor, but it seems like it hasn't improved.

Doctor's answer:

Trichomoniasis is treated with specific medications and preparations designed for the condition. During treatment, both partners should take medication simultaneously. Trichomoniasis is typically caused by bacterial transmission, or it may be acquired during sexual activity. During the treatment period, it's advisable to maintain a light diet and pay close attention to hygiene. Avoid scratching with your hands to prevent reinfection. It is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and start treatment promptly based on the doctor's advice.
