A member asked:
I was told a normal urine analysis would show trichomonas because the parasite can be viewed in the urine under the microscope they use.correct?

Depends: It would likely show up on a full urinalysis if it included microscopy.In many clinical settings that step is omitted, since currently available chemical strips can identify most issues without the extra equipment or needed training.If you suspect an issue be sure to relay that information to the doc so they will look for it.
