Wimpole Street Medical & Dental offers private Trichomonas vaginalis PCR testing at our clinic. T. vaginalis is the most common curable non-viral STI worldwide, caused by a protozoan parasite.

No GP referral is required. All samples are processed at UKAS-accredited laboratories. Results are communicated confidentially through our secure patient portal.
About Trichomoniasis
Trichomoniasis is caused by the protozoan parasite Trichomonas vaginalis. It primarily infects the urogenital tract and is transmitted through sexual contact. Symptoms may include vaginal discharge (often frothy and yellow-green), vulval irritation, dysuria, and an unpleasant odour. However, up to 50% of women and most men are asymptomatic.
Untreated trichomoniasis is associated with increased HIV transmission risk, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and chronic genital inflammation. Treatment with metronidazole or tinidazole is highly effective.
When to Test for Trichomonas
Vaginal symptoms
Unusual discharge, irritation, or odour that may indicate trichomoniasis.
Persistent urethritis
T. vaginalis can cause urethritis in men, particularly when other causes are excluded.
Routine STI screening
Especially relevant for women and individuals with new partners.
Pregnancy
Trichomoniasis is associated with preterm birth and low birth weight.
