How is trichomoniasis checked in women?

Patient's question:

Trichomoniasis vaginitis has caused bleeding gums for over ten years. How should it be treated? What medication should be used? Oral medication? What should be done in this case? Detailed examination for female trichomoniasis vaginitis?

Doctor's answer:

Patients with trichomoniasis can take oral metronidazole, also known as Flagyl, 200mg each time, 3 times a day, with a 7-day course; or 400mg, 2 times a day, for a total of 5 days. For new patients, a single dose of 2g can achieve the same effect.
Recommendation: It is recommended to go to a Class III-A hospital or a hospital above that level for thorough examination and treatment. Oral medication has a good recovery rate, high efficacy, low toxicity, and is convenient to use. It can be used by both men and women. Married women may find it difficult to use local vaginal medication, making systemic medication more convenient.
After taking the medication, occasional gastrointestinal reactions may occur, such as reduced appetite, nausea, and dry vomiting.
