Question 1

my discharge taste sour is this trichomanosis or my natural taste?

Accepted Answer

Not able to diagnose: Taste is not a good way to determine if it is trichomoniasis.
White thick and odorless is usually yeast/candida, grey/green with a fishy odor is usually bacteria vaginosis, and green/yellow and itch with a possible fishy odor is usually trichomoniasis. Going to your doctor for evaluation and testing is the best way to find your answer. Take care.

Question 2

is there an over-the-counter treatment for trichomanosis?

Accepted Answer

No - See a Doctor: No, you need Flagel Pills for the most effective treatment.  See your Doctor or the Health Department - you should have a full STD screening if you have been exposed to any STD.

Question 3

what is trichomonisis?

Accepted Answer

Parasite: Trichamonas is a tiny parasite that is transmitted from infected people by sex. It is treated with an antibiotic. You and any partners you have had all need to get treated, or you can keep passing it back and forth to each other. Using condoms can prevent getting it or any other diseases. You need to be checked as soon as possible and make sure you don't have anything else.

Question 5

how do i know if i have trichomonasis?

Accepted Answer

Urine or vaginal : Urine test or vaginal swab.

Question 6

what r male symptoms of trichomonisis?

Accepted Answer

Alike UTI: Trichomonas is usually but not always symptomatic in males while it is almost never symptomatic in female. Men may experience burning, discharge, difficulty to void. Often times co-infection is present further complicating the picture.
Diagnosis however is established not by symptoms. You need evaluation of your history, examination and testing. If you have concerns then go and see your doctor.

Question 7

how do i know when im. cured from trichomonisis?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: Trichomoniasis can be treated with Metronidazole in most cases, though I have seen resistant infections. To prove a cure involves an examination in the office and possibly a culture of the vagina.

Question 8

if my body showed symptoms of trichomonisis once , is it a guarantee my body will show symptoms again the second time?

Accepted Answer

No: If you are treated appropriately for trich, you should be cured.  If, after several weeks, it is positive, either you were not adequately treated or you got re-infected.

Question 9

how can i treat trichomycosis around my balls?

Accepted Answer

Here are some ...: See dermatologist for specific instructions and Rx although the general measures for tichmycosis are keeping the affected area and dry as much as you can and judiciously use of topical agents as recommended on labels including Clindamycin, Naftitine, and Benzoyl peroxide.

Question 10

i think my boyfriend has trichomycosis axillaris?

Accepted Answer

Very likely does: The stuff on the surface of his armpit hairs would be unmistakable. He's fortunate to have an observant friend like yourself. I trust he showers daily; rubbing on some topical benzoyl peroxide perhaps twice daily as tolerated should clear him up if he's not interested in shaving.
