Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing persistent itching in my private area, along with a significant increase in white discharge. Besides a very unpleasant odor, I went to a nearby hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with trichomoniasis. It wasn't until these past few days that I discovered I'm pregnant. Can trichomoniasis infect the fetus?Doctor's answer:
From a medical perspective, if your trichomoniasis is not too severe, it generally will not affect the fetus. Moreover, topical medication cannot be applied at this time, nor can Western medicine be taken orally. It is also possible to wait until after delivery for treatment. Do not worry, and wish your baby a healthy life.Trichomoniasis patients can, while understanding professional treatment, use folk remedies as supplementary treatment in daily life. Proper diet should be maintained in daily eating habits to avoid irritating foods.
