Trichomoniasis is more common than you think and often misdiagnosed. Our PCR test provides definitive answers in 2 days.
Trichomoniasis ('trich') is a common sexually transmitted parasitic infection caused by Trichomonas vaginalis. It's often overlooked or misdiagnosed as thrush or bacterial vaginosis. In women, it causes vaginitis with discharge; in men, it can cause urethritis. Our PCR testing provides highly accurate detection, far superior to traditional microscopy methods.

Trich symptoms overlap significantly with thrush and bacterial vaginosis. Traditional microscopy misses up to 50% of cases. PCR testing is far more accurate and is the gold standard for diagnosis.
Yes, men can carry and transmit trich, though they're often asymptomatic. This is why partner treatment is essential to prevent reinfection.
Trich is easily cured with antibiotics. Both partners should be treated simultaneously to prevent reinfection.
