What are the main pathogens of trichomoniasis?

Patient's question:

2011.5.25 Past treatment history and effectiveness: Each time it improved, it would revert in the following month. What kind of help is needed: How to treat it well

Doctor's answer:

Trichomoniasis is primarily caused by the infection of Trichomonas vaginalis and is often transmitted through sexual activity or public bathhouses. It typically presents with frothy white discharge, a foul odor in the genital area, and itching. It is recommended to use a high-manganese potassium permanganate solution at a ratio of 1:5000 for sitz baths, insert metronidazole effervescent tablets into the deep vagina, and take oral metronidazole tablets simultaneously. Both partners should be treated, and after improvement, medication should be used for another course after each menstrual period ends. During treatment, sexual activity is strictly prohibited, and spicy or irritating foods should be avoided. As this is not a face-to-face consultation, the advice is for reference only. For severe cases of trichomoniasis, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for early treatment.
