Precautions for Trichomonas vaginitis

Trichomonas vaginitis often recurs after menstruation, because Trichomonas easily hides in the vaginal folds. When the acidity of the vagina decreases after menstruation, Trichomonas can reproduce again. Therefore, Trichomonas vaginitis is prone to recurrence. So what should we pay attention to?

1. Keep the vulva clean during treatment to prevent secondary bacterial infection. Wash the vulva and change underwear every day.

2. Do not eat spicy food or drink alcohol during the acute phase. Sexual intercourse is prohibited during treatment.

3. Even if the trichomoniasis test is negative after treatment, one course of treatment should be continued after the next menstruation is over, and the leucorrhea should be checked again after each menstruation. It can be considered cured only if the result is negative for 3 times.

4. During treatment, care should be taken to avoid repeated infection. Underwear and washing towels should be boiled for 5 to 10 minutes to kill pathogens.

5. In addition, because Trichomonas not only parasitizes in the vagina, but also often invades the urethra, the foreskin folds of men, and the prostatic fluid, the married man should also be treated. If only the wife is treated and the husband is not, even if the wife is cured, she will be infected again by the husband through sexual intercourse. This cycle repeats itself, and both parties will have stubborn and difficult to cure trichomoniasis.
