Who has heard of this?
Apparently it's so common it's not even tested for unless you have symptoms.
So is passed on & on and on.
Trichomoniasis is a type of sexually transmitted infection caused by a tiny parasite.

A gum clinic can test for it (postal kits aren’t good for it as they live around the cervix and don’t survive the post. They are diagnosed under a microscope. The symptoms are very very obvious when one has it.

That said, some can be asymptomatic. I always do in-person testing six-monthly and look for “strawberry cervix” when I check my IUD strings monthly. Most sti tests only test for the big five which is also why I never do oral without a barrier in place.

Trichomoniasis is a common sexually transmitted infection caused by a parasite. In women, trichomoniasis can cause a foul-smelling vaginal discharge, genital itching and painful urination. Men who have trichomoniasis typically have no symptoms. |

Yeah I've heard about it and I'm clued up on symptoms because it's not generally tested for unless you ask.
I think most people have at this point, atleast women maybe because it can be mistaken for BV or vise versa just from the symptoms |

BV can have various triggers, like being toooooo clean, being allergic to latex (my personal trigger until I tried latex free condoms), multiple partners... |
