What are the symptoms of trichomoniasis?

Trichomoniasis symptoms: Trichomoniasis often presents with local itching, burning sensation, and abnormal discharge. In women, trichomonas vaginitis is a common type, with symptoms including vaginal itching, burning sensation, increased vaginal discharge that appears yellow-green or gray-white in color and has a foul odor. Some women may also experience urinary symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and painful urination, and in some cases, pain during sexual intercourse. Male patients may exhibit urethral irritation symptoms such as frequency, urgency, and dysuria, along with symptoms of balanitis including red rashes and itching on the glans penis. Additionally, trichomoniasis may cause systemic symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and loss of appetite. However, not all infected individuals will develop obvious symptoms, and some may remain asymptomatic carriers. Trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted disease. Individuals experiencing related symptoms should seek medical attention promptly to avoid transmitting the infection to sexual partners. It is also important to maintain good personal hygiene and avoid unprotected sexual activities.
