Patient's question:
Doctor, I'm 27 years old, not divorced, but I've had three boyfriends. Recently, for the past month, I've been experiencing itching in my lower abdomen and excessive white discharge, which is yellow-green in color. I had my discharge examined at the hospital, and the detailed test results showed trichomoniasis. I don't understand how I could get this disease. Is trichomoniasis a sexually transmitted disease?Doctor's answer:
First, it can be clearly stated that trichomoniasis is not a sexually transmitted disease, but it is contagious. It can be directly transmitted to the other person (the man with whom you have sexual intercourse again) or indirectly transmitted (such as sharing towels, bathtubs, etc. with the patient). It is important to maintain emotional stability and avoid excessive emotional fluctuations. Maintain a good routine and increase physical exercise during the day to enhance the body's resistance and immunity.
