Trichomoniasis Treatment

How does Trichomonas Treatment work?

Bacterial vaginosis is thought to be caused by a change in the natural balance of bacteria that live in the vagina. Because Trichomonas Treatment has antibiotic properties, it helps to kill excess bacteria and return the balance to normal, reducing the symptoms.

Trichomonas Treatment can be used to treat a number of different bacterial infections, though we only prescribe it to treat trichomoniasis in women. It is an effective trichomoniasis treatment that can typically clear symptoms in two to three days and should be taken for the full course.

Buying Trichomonas Treatment online

Trichomonas Treatment is suitable to buy online if you have previously suffered from trichomoniasis that has been diagnosed and successfully treated by your GP.

If you have not suffered from trichomoniasis before, your symptoms are not typical of trichomoniasis, or you have had a negative test result, you should see your GP or visit a local sexual health clinic for further investigation.

If you are not sure whether your symptoms are caused by trichomoniasis, bacterial vaginosis, or another infection you can use a Canestest Home Kit to check. Vaginal discharge and odour can be caused by a number of different bacterial infections, including STIs, so it's important to make sure you correctly identify your condition: only then can you find the right treatment.

Treating recurrent BV with Trichomonas Treatment

Trichomonas Treatment can also be used to treat recurrent trichomoniasis. It is not uncommon for trichomoniasis to return within three months of first treatment. As long as the first course of Trichomonas Treatment was successful and your symptoms are the same as they were before you completed that course, you’re safe to use Trichomonas Treatment again.

If you have trichomoniasis more than twice in 6 months or 4 times in 12 months, you should consult a GP or sexual health clinic.

Can I use Trichomonas Treatment to treat thrush?

A yeast infection is not the same as trichomoniasis. Although both infections can cause similar symptoms, their causes are distinct. A yeast infection (such as thrush) is caused by a fungus overgrowth, whereas trichomoniasis is caused by bacterial overgrowth. Thrush doesn’t tend to have a fishy odour like trichomoniasis, but it does produce a distinct discharge that is similar to cottage cheese in appearance.

Thrush can be treated with oral capsules or alternative treatments such as a pessary and cream combo.
