Trichomoniasis vaginitis, what are the symptoms?

Patient's question:

Had sexual activity, and for the past two years, I've been feeling a bit itchy down there with a lot of white discharge. When I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, I found out that I had trichomoniasis vaginitis. They prescribed a bunch of medication, but after treating it for a while, I still feel extremely itchy down there with no improvement at all. I'd like to ask you, what are the symptoms of trichomoniasis vaginitis?

Doctor's answer:

During this period, abnormal leukorrhea may reappear, usually appearing yellow-green or accompanied by frequent urination, urgency, vulvar itching, lower back pain, and other symptoms. Leukorrhea with an odor and an increase in leukorrhea volume may require a visit to the hospital for a vaginal discharge examination to aid in diagnosis, and treatment will be determined based on the results. Common medications, such as metronidazole, may be used. Sexual partners or close family members should also be examined and treated at the hospital to prevent cross-infection. The recurrence of vaginal inflammation poses a serious threat to women's health. Patients should pay attention to follow-up examinations after their menstrual period, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
