What is yeast infection?

Trichomoniasis known as ’Tric’ is a very common sexually transmitted disease (STD) that affects men and more frequently older women. It is caused by the protozoan parasite Trichomonas vaginalis. Most people do not know they are infected and for this reason are not treated. Trichomoniasis increases the risk of contracting other STDs.

Transmission of yeast infection

It is spread through sexual intercourse with an infected person. The parasite is transmitted by direct contact from penis to vagina or vagina to vagina. Rarely, other areas of the body are infected. A person with no symptoms can transmit the disease. Pregnant women with the disease are at risk for premature childbirth.

Preventing yeast infection

Trichomoniasis can be prevented through sexual abstinence or the correct use of latex condoms which helps reduce the risk of infection. Avoiding multiple sexual partners who have not been tested or have not had a negative STD test is also a method of prevention.

Signs and symptoms of yeast infection

Symptoms in Men Include:

  • Itching and irritation inside the penis
  • Burning sensation after urination or ejaculation
  • Abnormal discharge from the penis

Symptoms in Women Include:

  • Vaginal discharge (white, gray, yellow or green) with foul odor (fishy odor)
  • Redness, burning, itching of the genitals
  • Pain with urination or sexual intercourse

Yeast infection treatment

When trichomoniasis is diagnosed, it can be treated with antibiotics such as Metronidazole and Tinidazole, 2 g orally with a single dose of either of these two medications. Do not consume alcohol in the following 24 hours to avoid side effects.

It is recommended that even if the sexual partner has no symptoms, testing and treatment should also be performed. Abstain from sex for at least 7 days or until treatment is completed.

Common questions about Yeast Infection

Additionally, avoiding scented hygiene products and douches can help maintain the natural balance of bacteria and yeast in the vagina.

Yeast infections are common during pregnancy due to hormonal changes. If you suspect a yeast infection while pregnant, it’s crucial to consult your healthcare provider before using any over-the-counter treatments. They can prescribe safe and effective treatment options that won’t harm you or the baby.

It can sometimes be challenging to distinguish a yeast infection from other conditions like bacterial vaginosis or sexually transmitted infections (STIs) based solely on symptoms. A healthcare provider may recommend lab tests, such as a vaginal swab, to accurately diagnose the condition and ensure appropriate management.

Yes, although more common in women, men can also develop yeast infections, typically around the genital area, known as a penile yeast infection. It's important for men experiencing irritation, itching, or a rash to consult a healthcare provider for appropriate diagnosis and treatment.

Yes, yeast infections can recur, even after successful treatment. Recurrences can be due to incomplete treatment, resistance to medication, or underlying factors that predispose one to yeast overgrowth. Discussing preventive strategies with a healthcare provider is crucial if recurrences are frequent.
