How to self-diagnose and treat Trichomonas vaginitis

Trichomonas vaginitis is not as common as before. If you have Trichomonas vaginitis, don't panic. Paying attention to the following details can help you get rid of its troubles:

1. Why did you get it? I usually ask the patient or sexual partner if they have a history of swimming, because it is generally believed that if one person in the swimming pool has Trichomonas, then others may be infected. People with strong constitutions will not get sick, but those with poor resistance may get Trichomonas. So next time I go swimming, I will be more careful, choose a better swimming pool, and take medicine after swimming if necessary. This is one of the common causes of Trichomonas vaginitis and one of the inducements for recurrence.

2. The medication for women is actually very simple: wash the vulva with external medicine and try not to wash the inside. It is troublesome and unnecessary because it does not play the main role. Metronidazole tablets or suppositories are placed for 7 days. Take oral metronidazole tablets or metronidazole sustained-release tablets for 7 consecutive days. They are available in pharmacies and are very cheap. Do not have sex during medication. Try to use it for 7 consecutive days during non-menstrual period.

3. The man must be treated at the same time. It is also very simple. Take metronidazole tablets or metronidazole sustained-release tablets orally for 7 days, and wash the external genitalia with the medicine used by the woman. Do not have sex during medication. Please note that you should not drink alcohol during oral metronidazole.

4. After the diagnosis is confirmed, go home and boil the underwear and bed sheets you have used or scald them in boiling water, and then expose them to the sun. This applies to both men and women.

Now that Trichomonas vaginitis is classified as a sexually transmitted disease, there is really no need to feel stressed because it is really not difficult to treat.
