Treatment of trichomoniasis in men

Trichomoniasis belongs to the number of sexually transmitted diseases, transmitted predominantly through sexual intercourse. Its causative agent, trichomonas (Trichomonas vaginalis) , getting on the mucous membranes of the genitals and penetrating into the intercellular space, provokes the development of inflammation. More often, of course, trichomoniasis occurs in women, but men are also prone to infection. Further advancement of the pathogen through the genitourinary tract leads to the development of urethritis, prostatitis and other inflammations of the pelvic organs. Infection with trichomoniasis occurs at the time of unprotected intercourse. Household contamination is unlikely, since outside the human body Trichomonas can survive for a maximum of 24 hours.

As a rule, the symptoms of trichomoniasis begin to appear 4-28 days after infection, although on average the incubation period lasts 7-10 days.

A characteristic feature of trichomoniasis in men is the appearance of secretions of gray-green color from the urethra, while burning and itching may occur during urination. Usually, in the first days after infection, the discharge is abundant, but in the absence of appropriate treatment, they can spontaneously disappear. Many people mistakenly think in this case that the disease has receded, but after a while symptoms of complications of trichomoniasis - prostatitis and epididymitis appear.

Thus, despite the presence of even a mild symptomatology, the diagnosis and subsequent treatment of trichomoniasis in men should be carried out to the fullest.
