Trichomoniasis vaginitis – symptoms and diagnosis

I have had a profuse vaginal discharge and a greenish discharge for some time. It itches me a lot.

Do I have to go to the doctor right away or can I only come back from vacation in two weeks? ~ Dora1988

Any abnormal vaginal discharge accompanied by subjective symptoms such as itching, burning – requires consultation with a doctor. Diagnosis of the cause of inflammation in the vagina is possible on the basis of the gynecological examination alone, because the vaginal discharge accompanying mycosis is very characteristic. Trichomoniasis does not give such characteristic symptoms anymore, and its treatment is not indifferent to health. Therefore, it is better to culture the vaginal discharge and the cervical canal and then initiate appropriate treatment (remembering that the treatment of inflammation of the genital tract in a woman should also include her sexual partner). Otherwise, the woman healed may be reinfected from her partner during sexual intercourse. Infection of a partner may be asymptomatic. It can only be an asymptomatic carrier.
