No: With proper hygiene and avoiding any inappropriate contact, your daughter should not be able to contract your trichomoniasis.

No: Trichomonasis can only survive on us in our genital tract and is passed to others through sexual intercourse. Very very rare cases of transfer when infected female shares a bath with a child as the water acts as a springboard to spread vaginal fluid.
