I have a related question: I see
trichomonal vaginitis rarely, maybe 1 to 2 cases in a year.
Isolated cases of
Trichomonal Vaginitis (TV) is seen in 13 women (13%), as part of mixed infection TV is seen in 5 women (5%), together totalling to 18 (18%).
Eight months earlier, she was given a diagnosis of
trichomonal vaginitis, which resolved after a course of metronidazole.
The common infectious causes of vaginitis include anaerobic bacteria causing bacterial vaginosis (BV), vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) and
trichomonal vaginitis.1
Candidiasis was the common cause in groups III and IV and trichomonal vaginitis in groups I and II (Table II).
Trichomonal vaginitis was found in groups I and II (52.63 and 47.37% respectively).
Women with
trichomonal vaginitis may complain of itching and soreness of the vagina and vulva, as well as burning during urination.
Chancroid (figure 12), lymphogranuloma venereum, nongonococcal urethritis, trichomonal vaginitis and pelvic inflammatory disease were rarely observed STIs.
