The urogenital trichomoniasis is the most common disease of the urogenital system, which is transmitted mainly by sexually, is caused by the simplest unicellular parasite of Trichomonas Vaginalis.
The share of this disease comes 60% of the appeals to the dermatologist, when it comes to infections that are transmitted by sexually, because this disease is mainly asymptomatic.
If the disease manifests itself with clinical manifestations, then such as: abundant vaginal discharge, foamy in structure and with an unpleasant odor, yellow with a grayish tinge, cutting in urination, itching and burning in the vagina, pain during sexual contact.
The main transfer path is sex. Domestic infection is possible, but it rarely happens. Also allocate vertical infection of newborns - that is, during passing through the generic paths of the mother.

This infection is very common worldwide: according to official statistics, it is sick more than 300 million people a year around the world. And this is only official statistics! The real figures are much higher, as in a number of countries (including in Russia and the USA), trichomoniasis does not require special registration and reporting, while the proportion of women in general statistics - in the area of 60-65 percent. The reason is in the differences in the female and men's urogenital system. The vagina has a large area for the invasion of the pathogen than a narrow urethra of men. Accordingly, women are more often ill trichomonosis, and they have "brighter". Thus, the probability of infection in men with single sexual act is 50-60 percent, and in women, according to some data, reaches 90-100 percent.
Trichomoniasis does not pose a threat to human life, but it is quite capable of providing multiple complications, including infertility in women. Therefore, with any dubious sex contact, I recommend everyone after 14 days (the average incubation period of the disease) after this contact is to pass the analysis by the PCR diagnostic method, which is the most reliable of laboratory methods. For your own calm.
The best prevention of any infection, which is transmitted by sexually, including trichomoniasis is the means of contraceptive barrier type (condom).
