Treatments for Trichomoniasis

This disease is treated with the drug metronidazole (Flagyl) or antibiotics. In men, symptoms can go away within a few weeks with no treatment. But, a man who never had any symptoms or whose symptoms have stopped, can continue to pass the disease to his partner until he gets treated. Because of this, it is important that both sexual partners be treated at the SAME TIME to get rid of the disease. They should also avoid sex until treatment is complete and no symptoms are present.
