A member asked:

Is it possible for a male to carry trichomonisis vaginitis for a long period of time without it being detected even with periodic std tests?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dr. Nicole Bullock answered

yes.: It is possible. Trich is a common std that usually presents with symptoms, but not necessarily. If your partner says or thinks they have trich, both of you should be tested.
