Trichomoniasis during pregnancy can lead to increased risks of premature birth and low birth weight for the baby. Untreated, the infection can also be passed from mother to baby during delivery.

Trichomoniasis symptoms can vary, and many people, especially men, may be asymptomatic. In women, symptoms often include a foul-smelling, frothy, yellowish-green vaginal discharge, vaginal itching or burning, and pain or burning when urinating. Men may experience penile discharge, pain or burning with urination, or testicular pain.
