A member asked:
Can trichomonaisis lay dormant for over a year? or is it possible to be exposed to it for a year and then suddenly develop symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and yes: Trichomonas is a very sneaky infection. It can be dormant for many years, perhaps for decades -- and then result in symptoms.
