Answers:
What is trichomoniasis?
Trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted disease (STD). It is sometimes called Trichomonas infection or trich (pronounced "trick"). Trich should be treated to prevent transmitting it to others and to prevent complications if you are pregnant. Trich is the second most common STD in the United States. Both men and women can get a trich infection; however, trich is more common in women.

In men, infections develop in the urethra or under the foreskin of an uncircumcised penis.

A physical examination: For men, this will include a visual exam of the penis and a sample of discharge from the urethra.
