A man once complained of whitish discharge from the tip of his penis. He was first asked to ignore but due to the sexual history and recurrent discharge, he was asked to go for a test called Urethral Swab for microsopy, cultuure and sensitivity. . His result came out showing a parasite called Trichomonas vaginalis.
Trichomoniasis symptoms in men include thin, white discharge from the tip of the penis, pain or a burning sensation when urinating , soreness, swelling and redness around the head of the penis and foreskin.Getting tested for trichomoniasis is easy and doesn’t hurt. A health care professional will examine you and take a swab from the vagina or the penis. Sometimes men will also be asked to give a urine sample.If you find out that you have trichomoniasis, you should test for other STIs.
Use condoms: Condoms are the best way to prevent STIs when you have sex. Because a man does not need to ejaculate to give or get trichomoniasis, make sure to put the condom on before the penis touches the vagina, mouth, or anus. Other methods of birth control, like birth control pills, shots, implants, or diaphragms, will not protect you from STIs. Get tested. Be sure you and your partner are tested for STIs. Talk to each other about the test results before you have sex.
