Treatment of Trichomonas vaginitis

Trichomonas vaginitis is a common gynecological disease caused by the infection of Trichomonas in the vagina. This type of Trichomonas is relatively strong and sometimes even the urethra or male reproductive system may be infected. Therefore, if you are infected with Trichomonas vaginitis, you must seek medical attention in time, receive symptomatic treatment, and use medications reasonably to restore your health as soon as possible.

Trichomonas vaginitis has obvious symptoms during the onset period. For example, the leucorrhea will turn yellow or yellow-green and form a large amount of foamy leucorrhea. In severe cases, there will be blood in the leucorrhea, and the vulva will be itchy. Sometimes it will feel hot and there will be obvious pain. Here we will introduce how to treat Trichomonas vaginitis and related precautions.

1 Trichomonas vaginalis is very sensitive to metronidazole, and because the disease is not limited to the vagina, systemic medication is required. The most effective one is oral metronidazole. However, the side effects of metronidazole are quite obvious, such as gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea and vomiting, and some are rare but more serious, such as leukopenia and rash. Once they occur, you should stop taking the medication.

2 If you cannot tolerate the side effects of oral metronidazole, you can consider local treatment, that is, using internal medication, generally metronidazole vaginal effervescent tablets. However, please pay attention to personal hygiene when placing the medicine.

The main transmission route of Trichomonas vaginitis is sexual intercourse, so while the female is being treated, the male should also undergo corresponding examinations and treatment, and should stop having sex. Otherwise, if only the female is treated and the male is ignored, or if the two maintain close contact before being cured, it will cause repeated infection and cannot be cured.

4 Women with Trichomonas vaginitis and their sexual partners should boil their underwear and bathing towels in water for ten minutes and dry them in the sun. The basins used by women for washing should also be repeatedly boiled in boiling water and dried in the sun to kill the Trichomonas attached to them as much as possible.

5. Try not to go to public swimming pools, hot springs, bathhouses and other places. If you do go there, do not use the public towels provided there. Once someone carries Trichomonas and contaminates the water source or towel, you may be indirectly infected and become ill.

6 When going to the restroom in a hotel or other public places, do not use a toilet. If there is no squat toilet, try to avoid direct contact of your body with the toilet to avoid cross infection. Your own toilet should also be cleaned and disinfected regularly to keep it clean.

Trichomonas vaginitis needs timely treatment. During the treatment period, you must pay attention to personal hygiene, prohibit sexual intercourse, avoid cross infection, eat a light diet, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Female friends are more delicate in gynecology, so they need to protect themselves at all times.
