Trichomonas vaginalis is an anaerobic parasitic protozoan that often parasitizes the urogenital tract. In women, it mainly exists in the vagina, but also in the urethra, paraurethral glands, bladder and other parts. In men, it often parasitizes in the urethra, prostate and other parts. Typical leucorrhea is yellow-green, foamy, thin, and has a fishy odor. When inflammation invades the urethra, there may be symptoms of urgency and frequency of urination.
