Is metronidazole effective for trichomoniasis?

Patient's question:

I also have trichomoniasis. I took metronidazole for a week and felt that it hasn't made much difference. People say that metronidazole shouldn't be used for too long, but I haven't taken metronidazole before and I'm a bit unsure about its effect. I want to know if taking metronidazole is effective for trichomoniasis?

Doctor's answer:

After contracting trichomoniasis, yellow-green vaginal discharge usually reappears. It is recommended to take Azithromycin tablets and Ornidazole dispersible tablets, while using Baimei wash solution for cleaning. Patients with trichomoniasis vaginitis can, in addition to understanding symptomatic treatment, use dietary therapy as supplementary treatment in daily life. Proper dietary habits should be maintained in daily meals to avoid irritating foods. Pay close attention to the health of the private area and change underwear and pants frequently.
