A member asked:
Can someone carry trichomoniasis for 5 years and not know it? can it cause reoccurring bv
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: It is possible to have trich for 5 years and most people will have some sort of symptoms such as discharge with odor and vaginal irritation or burning. Bv is different than trich though the symptoms are similar. I don't think having trich will make someone more susceptible to BV but i suppose it's possible.
