Dear Anonymous,

Fertility is not something that is usually affected with Trich, Trichomoniasis can increase the risk of getting or spreading other sexually transmitted infections. For example, trichomoniasis can cause genital inflammation that makes it easier to get infected with the HIV virus, or to pass the HIV virus on to a sex partner. 

Pregnant women with Trich are more likely to have their babies too early (preterm delivery). Also, babies born to infected mothers are more likely to have an officially low birth weight (less than 5.5 pounds).

Please remember that if you are with a partner and you are treated for Trich then your partner must also be treated simultaneously-- otherwise, you will keep going back to your doctor to be treated because you continue to have sex with the same person. 

Good Luck and please be more careful during sex--it isn't worth getting infections or worse diseases,

Rosa
