About the Trichomonas vaginalis (PCR)
The Trichomonas vaginalis (PCR) is a confidential sexual health test available at Medical and Dental in Central London. A swab sample is collected by a registered nurse during an appointment lasting approximately 20 minutes. Results are typically available within 2 days" and are delivered confidentially via secure email.
Trichomonas vaginalis is a single-celled protozoan parasite that causes trichomoniasis, a common sexually transmitted infection. The WHO estimates approximately 156 million new cases of trichomoniasis occur globally each year. Symptoms, when present, may include unusual discharge with a distinct odour, genital irritation, and discomfort during urination or intercourse. However, a significant proportion of infections are asymptomatic, particularly in men. Testing is performed using PCR swab or microscopy. Trichomoniasis is treatable with a course of antibiotics, typically metronidazole.
