Can you catch trichomoniasis from toilet seats? if so what is the likelihood of that happening?

No: Trichomonas cannot be contracted from a toilet seat as it needs a warm moist place for transmission.

Trichomoniasis: No, it is not spread from toilet seats. The normal routes of transmission for Trichomoniasis are penis to vagina, vagina to penis or vagina to vagina. Risk of infection from oral sex: Giving oral sex to a woman with an infected vagina or a man with an infected penis might result in getting trichomoniasis of the throat. There are few reports of potential spread from oral sex.
