Was diagnosed with Tric. Only had one partner for 7 years

I went in 2 months ago for my pap. I thought I only had a yeast infection but my doctor informed me that I had bacterial vaginitis and Trichomoniasis. An STD. I've been married for 5 years and only been with my husband 7 years. I've had Pap smears every year with no issue. He tells me he's been faithful but how can I argue with medical facts? Could it actually have been dormant this intire time and pop up now? I went back in to get another Pap because I still have the same symptoms. I felt like a complete fool telling my gynecologist that "my husband doesn't have it so how could I get it?"
