Effective Trichomoniasis Testing for Men
At Truman Men's Clinic, we offer confidential and comprehensive Trichomoniasis Testing for men, a crucial service for managing this common, curable sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by a parasite. While often asymptomatic in men, trichomoniasis can cause urethritis and, if untreated, can increase the risk of other STIs. If you're experiencing symptoms such as mild penile discharge, painful urination, or itching, or if your partner has been diagnosed with trichomoniasis, our expert team provides accurate and discreet testing, along with clear guidance on effective treatment if positive.

Components of Trichomoniasis Testing
✔ Confidential Consultation & Risk Assessment – A private discussion about your sexual health history, any potential risk factors or exposures (especially if a partner has been diagnosed), and a review of any symptoms.
✔ Symptom Review – Inquiry about symptoms that might indicate trichomoniasis, such as watery, whitish, or frothy penile discharge, painful urination (dysuria), or urethral itching. Many men, however, are asymptomatic carriers.
✔ Laboratory Testing: * Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests (NAATs): The most sensitive and recommended test for men. It involves providing a simple urine sample. This test detects the genetic material of Trichomonas vaginalis. * Urethral Swab (Less Common for Men): In some cases, a swab from the urethra might be taken, though a urine sample is typically preferred due to its non-invasiveness and good sensitivity.
✔ Rapid & Reliable Results – Our goal is to provide your test results efficiently, allowing for timely treatment if necessary.
✔ Post-Test Counseling (If Positive) – If your test result is positive, we provide immediate and comprehensive counseling on: * Antibiotic Treatment: Oral antibiotics, typically metronidazole or tinidazole, are highly effective in curing the infection. It is crucial to complete the full course of medication. * Abstinence During Treatment: Guidance on avoiding sexual activity until treatment is complete for both you and your partner(s) to prevent reinfection. * Partner Notification & Treatment: Crucial advice on how to inform and encourage all sexual partners to get tested and treated, even if they have no symptoms, as reinfection is common.
✔ Prevention Counseling – Comprehensive advice on safer sex practices, including consistent condom use, and regular STI testing, to prevent future infections.
