Trichomoniasis

Trichomoniasis, often simply called “trich,” is one of the most common and curable sexually transmitted infections (STIs) worldwide — yet many people have never even heard of it. Caused by the parasite Trichomonas vaginalis, this infection affects both men and women, though symptoms are more common in women. Shockingly, up to 70% of people with trichomoniasis may not show any symptoms at all, allowing the infection to spread unknowingly between partners.

Our Trichomoniasis Awareness & Treatment Guide is designed to close that knowledge gap, helping you detect, understand, treat, and prevent trich effectively and confidently.

What’s Included:

• Clear Overview of Trichomoniasis – Learn what it is, how it spreads, and why early detection is so important for your health.

• Symptoms in Men and Women – From unusual discharge, itching, and discomfort to burning during urination, recognize the signs before complications arise.

• Testing & Diagnosis – Understand how and when to get tested through swabs, urine samples, or lab cultures. Learn what to expect from a clinic visit or home testing kit.
