Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I got treated for trich and my partner tested negative...we are in a monogamous relationship abd do not use protection ...he tested negative and didn't finish his meds...I am starting to experience discharge again and am wondering if his test could have been a false negative and now I have it back again. He has no symptoms and didn't have symptoms when I did and was diagnosed
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Some men don`t show symptoms for Trichomoniasis so I suggest you to take test for both of you and to start the treatment for both even if it shows negative for him ask him to complete the treatment. I suggest you to take Metronidazole for a week.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
