So, I was diagnosed with Trichomoniasis about a month ago, about two months after starting a new sexual relationship. I found out because I went to get tested after having symptoms. I was tested for Trich, Gonorrhea and Chlamydia, and only the Trich test came back positive as far as I was informed. So I got treatment, but I took the pills incorrectly, by mistake. I also was given pills to give to my new boyfriend, and he took them, but he also took them wrong (wrong dosage at the wrong times). So I went back to the doctor, told them what happened, and she checked me again for gonorrhea, chlamydia and trich, and said I no longer had any STIs, and that even though I took the medicine wrong, I was still cured, but I could re-medicate to be sure, so I did, and I took the medicine right this time. She also informed me that I had a yeast infection, so I got pills for that. To sum it up, the yeast pills didn’t work, so I took Monistat suppository, and then went BACK to the doctor, for a pap smear, and told her I still felt itchy. She confirmed with me again that I no longer had any STIs and that there was still yeast, but I’d get over it.
