Safe sex prevents not only trich parasites, but other STI's and STD's as well. Trich can return even after being 'fully treated'. Trich can cause issues with newborns, while rare, still not a good chance to take. No one wants genital parasites, or any other STI/STD.

The best course of prevention is to practice safe sex. Using a condom and ensuring the partner's you choose are also practicing safe sex with other partner's of their choosing can assist in prevention or spreading.

Trich is easily treatable with prescribed antibiotics to target the infection. These antibiotics are prescribed in an oral pill form by a healthcare provider. It is common for a healthcare provider to prescribe both you and the partner that you caught it from or could have given it to medication simultaneously.

Trichomoniasis can increase the risk of catching and spreading other STI's. This is due to the possibility of open sores on the penis or vagina giving a more direct line to the bloodstream. Reinfection is currently at about a 1 in 5 after 3 months of completing treatment.
