Overview
If left untreated, women with trichomoniasis may progress to develop infection of the adnexa, endometrium, and Skene and Bartholin glands. In men, untreated trichomoniasis can cause epididymitis, prostatitis, and decreased sperm cell motility.[1] Complications of trichomoniasis include pelvic inflammatory disease, increased risk of HIV, increased risk of cervical cancer, increased risk of prostate cancer, and pregnancy-related complications such as low birth weight, preterm delivery, and premature rupture of membranes. The prognosis of trichomoniasis is generally excellent with treatment.[2]
Natural History
If left untreated, women with trichomoniasis may progress to develop infection of the adnexa, endometrium, and Skene and Bartholin glands. In men, untreated trichomoniasis can cause epididymitis, prostatitis, and decreased sperm cell motility.[1]
Complications
Common complications of trichomoniasis in women include:[1]
- Pelvic inflammatory disease
- Pregnancy-related complications such as low birth weight, preterm delivery, and premature rupture of membranes
- Increased risk of acquiring HIV
- Increased risk of cervical neoplasia
Complications of trichomoniasis in men include:[1]
- Epididymitis
- Prostatitis
- Increased risk of prostate cancer
Prognosis
The prognosis of trichomoniasis is generally excellent with treatment.[2]
