I'm a little confused-- so I'll try to see if I understood you correctly. You had irritation in the past and attributed it to BV, so you tried OTC Vagistat and it didn't go away so you went to Planned Parenthood where you were diagnosed and treated for Trich? Correct? Your first question is whether or not you had it long enough to have given it to your now Ex-boyfriend? Yes, it is possible to have Trichomoniasis and not know about it because many times symptoms go ignored or are confused for something else-- like how you thought it was BV.
How long ago were you treated for Trich? Did you have a follow-up to make sure that it was completely gone? If not, you may want to go back to planned parenthood to make sure that you no longer have it and if you have not finished your treatment you shouldn't be having any sexual contact until it is 100% gone. If you still have Trich, please make sure that you tell the guy that you had penis to vagina contact with because he will need to be treated as well.
Once you have been cleared from Trich or any other STDs then you should definitely consider using condoms to not only protect from pregnancy but from other STDs as well. It isn't worth putting your or someone else's health at risk.
