My ex partner transfered me a trich but he hasn't shown no symptoms nor had the bacteria on a common medical check.Also he had intercourse with other woman that hasn't got it (went to control herself)... I'm just curious, is it possible to get a trichomoniasis in some way other that sexual? Or that he had it when he was with me and after some period (of 1 month) his body "expelled" it??
Trichomoniasis, like many other sexually transmitted diseases, often occurs without any symptoms. Men almost never have symptoms, while 20% of women are asymptomatic. When women have symptoms, they usually appear within 5 to 28 days of exposure. The symptoms in women include a heavy, yellow-green or gray vaginal discharge, discomfort during intercourse, vaginal odor, and painful urination. Irritation and itching of the female genital area, and on rare occasions, lower abdominal pain also can be present. In about two-thirds of infected females, there is edema, inflammation, cell hypertrophy and metaplasia. The symptoms in men, if present, include a thin, whitish discharge from the penis and painful or difficult urination.
I don't see any other way that it can be transmitted other than sexual contact. However, most men, and some women, show no symptoms.
