Trichomonas Details: NCBI 5721, gram-negative or unknown [genus]

1. Trichomoniasis: Trichomonas vaginalis infects the urogenital tract, primarily affecting the vagina in women and the urethra in men. Trichomoniasis is one of the most common STIs worldwide. It can cause a range of symptoms, including:

   • Vaginal discharge (often frothy and malodorous in women)
   • Genital itching or irritation
   • Burning sensation during urination
   • Discomfort or pain during sexual intercourse
   • In men, symptoms may include urethral discharge and irritation

2. Complications in Women: If left untreated, trichomoniasis can lead to complications in women, including:

   • Increased risk of acquiring or transmitting other STIs, including HIV
   • Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), which can lead to chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and ectopic pregnancy
   • Adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as preterm birth and low birth weight

3. Complications in Men: Trichomoniasis in men is often asymptomatic, but it can lead to complications such as:

   • Urethritis (inflammation of the urethra)
   • Prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate gland)
   • Increased risk of HIV transmission

4. Association with Other Health Conditions: There is ongoing research exploring potential associations between Trichomonas infections and other health conditions, such as:

   • Bacterial vaginosis: Trichomonas vaginalis infection has been associated with an increased risk of bacterial vaginosis, a condition characterized by an imbalance of vaginal bacteria.
   • Adverse pregnancy outcomes: Trichomoniasis during pregnancy has been linked to preterm birth, low birth weight, and an increased risk of neonatal respiratory infections.

5. Impact on Sexual and Reproductive Health: Trichomonas infections can have significant implications for sexual and reproductive health, including:

   • Disruption of sexual relationships and sexual functioning due to symptoms and concerns about transmission
   • Increased risk of transmission to sexual partners, particularly if left untreated
   • Challenges in diagnosis and treatment, as trichomoniasis can be asymptomatic in some individuals

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.

Desired Levels Suggestions for Trichomonas

• Lab Low and High are calculated using the formula that most labs use: Mean - 1.95 Standard Deviation to Mean + 1.95 Standard Deviation

These are values that are computed from lab specific samples and are in percentage

Lab	Frequency	Average	Median	Minimum	Maximum	Std.Dev.	Skew	25 - 75 Percentile	5 - 95 Percentile	Lab Ranges	Box-Plot-Whiskers	Harmonic Mean	Geometric Mean	Obs.
