Trichomonas and Prostate Cancer

Researchers have uncovered a link between contracting Trichomonas in men and risk of prostate cancer.
Trich (as we like to shorten it to) is a Sexually transmitted Infection. It is actually hard to detect in men and is more often diagnosed in women. Trich is


  • Caused by bacteria.
  • Can cause a thin, yellow-green vaginal discharge in women which may feel irritating and have a strong smell. Men may have a similar discharge or no symptoms at all.
  • Easily diagnosed by a test. (in women)
  • Prompt treatment of the individual and their sexual partner(s) is important to prevent spread of infection

The point is.... if you have had unprotected sex GO FOR A CHECK UP. After all this is not something that you want coming back to haunt you in later life with a higher risk of prostate cancer..
