hello, i am currently pregnant and was told i had tricamonis a very common std. Both my husband and i were treated with the 4 pill dose of antibiotics to kill this std. i was instructed to not have sex for 10 days however on the morning of the 8th day we had sex.  Do you think there was enough time in that seven days for the treatment to have fully worked? or should i be worried about reinfection?
Hi, I understand your concern.  You were advised to follow abstinence for 10 days following treatment for trichomoniasis. This was to ensure complete irradiation of the Richmond from both partners systems. Incomplete recovery in either of parents leads to reinfection. Many a times second course is needed for full recovery.  You're having a short period of abstinence, there remains a possibility of reinfection. You can use a course Vaginal pessaries to avoid it. In case you still have the symptoms visit your doctor for further management.  Thanks.
