How to deal with recurrent trichomoniasis? What medication works quickly?

Patient's question:

How to deal with recurrent trichomoniasis? What medication works quickly? Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

The occurrence of trichomoniasis is due on one hand to infection with the trichomonas pathogen, and on the other hand to changes in the vaginal environment's pH value. Therefore, treatment must address both aspects. It is necessary to visit a hospital and use medication under the guidance of a doctor. Local and systemic administration are generally employed, and treatment should be conducted according to a prescribed course with regular follow-up examinations. If necessary, sexual partners should also be examined and treated simultaneously to achieve a curative effect.
The treatment of trichomoniasis includes both local and systemic approaches, with systemic treatment being the primary method currently. The dosage is metronidazole oral, 200–250 mg per dose, three times daily, with a course of 7–10 days. Treatment should be continued for 2–3 courses.
