Trichomoniasis Treatment isn't Tricky

Trichomoniasis treatment. Treating this common STD (Trichomoniasis vaginitis) has never been easier. It is very common and very curable.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggest either a single oral dose of metronidazole or tinidazole as the first choice in trich treatment . Check them out for the most current treatments and dosage.

Dosage for treating trich is currently 2 g taken orally in a single dose of either metronidazole or tinidazole but check that link above to get the most up-to-date info. Treatments change.

In trials, metronidazole had a cure rate of 90 to 95% and tinidazole had a cure rate of 86 to 100%. It was believed that the rates would be even higher if sexual partners are treated too.¹

One study showed the majority of male sexual partners were infected.³ Sexual partners MUST be treated. Symptoms often seem to disappear in men but he will still have the infection even though you can't see it and will reinfect his sexual partners.

It is suggested that you avoid sex ('fraid so!) until both of you have been treated and are symptom free. Otherwise, you're simply reinfecting each other. You do NOT develop an immunity to it. If you're exposed to Trichomonas vaginalis again, you'll likely get it again.

2.5 to 5% of all cases of this STD have some level of resistance to treatment with metronidazole. This can usually be overcome by a higher dose of oral metronidazole ²

If you have bad side effects with trichomoniaisis treatment this can be prevented.
