How to recognize Trichomonas vaginalis infection?

Trichomonas vaginalis ( Trichomonas vaginalis , TV) is a protozoan from the group of flagellates, which is a parasite that lives in the human urogenital tract. It causes trichomoniasis, a sexually transmitted infectious disease. This small protozoan can live in the urethra of a man or woman and become active during sexual intercourse.

Typical symptoms include heavy yellow-green vaginal discharge, irritation and/or pain in the vulva, perineum, and thighs, as well as pain during intercourse and painful urination. In turn, men with trichomoniasis may experience pain when urinating or ejaculating and the need to urinate more often. They may also notice a thin white discharge from the penis, swelling and redness around the glans or foreskin. However, trichomoniasis in men is often asymptomatic.

Reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) have shown that up to 340 million people worldwide will be affected by Trichomonas vaginalis infection at least once in their lifetime. Parasitic infection is cross-reactive, so it's best to test with your partner. Carrying out the test using the JD Biotech ^® Test T1 ^® kit is primarily recommended for women planning a pregnancy, women before childbirth, as well as all people who have frequent sexual relations with different partners. Remember that untreated intimate infections can lead to many complications, and early diagnosis of a health problem increases the chances of effective treatment and minimizes the risk of complications.
