A member asked:
Can you be treated for trichomoniasis and still be infected though symptoms go away. but return later without sex with an infected person.

Possible. Need exam : It's possible the treatment was incomplete. It's also possible you developed bacterial vaginosis (an imbalance of normal bacteria or flora) this can result in discharge and symptoms like trichomonis. You need another exam by your clinician.

Yes: That can occur. Treatment is not always 100% effective.
