 | | Prevalence of trichomoniasis was found to range from 5% in patients at family planning clinics to 75% in prostitutes. | | | Interestingly, in the study performed by Wolner-Hanssen et al, colpitis macularis was observed by the unaided eye in only 1.7% of patients with trichomoniasis; however, with the aid of colposcopy, colpitis macularis is observed in 70% of patients with trichomoniasis with a positive wet mount. | | | However, clotrimazole suppository currently is the DOC of some medical practitioners for patients with trichomoniasis in the first trimester of pregnancy. |
