Slim to none: The only way i can see that happening is if you were sharing sex toys (dildos) with a woman who was infected, and used the toy immediately after she did.

Trichomoniasis: The chances are low. “The parasite is usually spread by having unprotected sex (sex without a condom). It could also be spread by sharing sex toys if you don't wash them or cover them with a new condom before use.” Ref: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/trichomoniasis/
