Trichomoniasis is a common sexually transmitted infection caused by the parasite Trichomonas vaginalis. Although it is often discussed in relation to women's health, men can also become infected, frequently without noticeable symptoms. When diagnosed, trichomoniasis can usually be effectively treated with appropriate prescription medication.

What Is Trichomoniasis?

Trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the microscopic parasite Trichomonas vaginalis.

The infection is primarily spread through sexual contact and can affect:

• The urethra
• The genital tract
• The prostate in some cases

Many infected men experience no symptoms, allowing the infection to be unknowingly transmitted to sexual partners. For this reason, testing after possible exposure is important even if you feel well.

Without appropriate treatment, trichomoniasis may persist and contribute to ongoing transmission and urinary symptoms.

Symptoms of Trichomoniasis in Men

Many men with trichomoniasis have no symptoms.

When symptoms occur, they may include:

• Burning during urination
• Mild urethral irritation
• Penile discharge
• Itching inside the penis
• Discomfort after ejaculation
• Frequent urination

Because these symptoms may resemble those caused by chlamydia, gonorrhea, Mycoplasma genitalium, or other urinary tract conditions, laboratory testing is essential for an accurate diagnosis.

When Should You Get Tested?

Testing may be appropriate if you:

• Had unprotected sex
• Have a new sexual partner
• Were informed that a partner has trichomoniasis
• Experience urinary symptoms
• Have penile discharge
• Have another diagnosed STI
• Want comprehensive STI screening after possible exposure

Your physician will also consider the timing of possible exposure because diagnostic accuracy may depend on when the infection was acquired.

Trichomoniasis Testing

Accurate diagnosis is important before beginning treatment.

Depending on your symptoms and medical history, testing may include:

PCR Testing

PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) testing detects the genetic material of Trichomonas vaginalis and is commonly used because of its high analytical sensitivity.

PCR testing may also evaluate for other sexually transmitted infections at the same time when clinically appropriate.

Urine Testing

Urine samples may be collected as part of your STI evaluation, depending on your symptoms and the tests recommended by your physician.

Swab Testing

In selected cases, swab samples may be collected from the urethra or other affected sites when clinically indicated.

Additional STI Screening

Because trichomoniasis may occur alongside other sexually transmitted infections, your physician may recommend testing for:

• Chlamydia
• Gonorrhea
• Syphilis
• HIV
• Mycoplasma genitalium
• Ureaplasma
• Other infections based on your symptoms and risk factors

Trichomoniasis Treatment

Once trichomoniasis has been diagnosed, your physician will recommend treatment according to current clinical guidelines.

Treatment may include:

• Prescription antiparasitic medication
• Follow-up evaluation
• Repeat testing when medically appropriate
• Partner management recommendations
• Guidance regarding sexual activity during treatment

Because trichomoniasis is caused by a parasite rather than bacteria, treatment generally involves antiparasitic medication, not antibiotics. Your physician will explain the most appropriate medication and treatment plan based on your diagnosis.

It is important to complete the prescribed medication exactly as directed, even if symptoms improve before treatment is finished.

Partner Management

If trichomoniasis is confirmed, your recent sexual partner or partners may also require evaluation and treatment.

Partner management helps:

• Prevent reinfection
• Reduce ongoing transmission
• Improve treatment success
• Protect long-term sexual health

Your physician will discuss the recommendations appropriate for your situation.
