Order Trichomoniasis TestTrichomoniasis testing identifies infection with Trichomonas vaginalis, a protozoan parasite that colonizes the urogenital tract.

About Trichomoniasis Test in Big Spring
Trichomoniasis is one of the most common non-viral sexually transmitted infections, yet many cases produce no noticeable symptoms. Testing provides a definitive answer where clinical signs alone are inconclusive.
Laboratory methods for detecting Trichomonas vaginalis include nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT), which detects the organism's genetic material with high sensitivity, and microscopic examination of a wet mount, which looks for motile organisms in a sample. NAAT is generally preferred because it detects more infections than microscopy or culture.
Samples are collected from the site of likely infection. In women, a vaginal swab or a urine specimen may be used; in men, a urine sample or a urethral swab is typical. The choice of specimen depends on the method the laboratory uses and on the reason for testing.
Results are reported as positive, meaning the organism was detected, or negative, meaning it was not. A negative result does not always rule out infection if exposure was very recent, because the organism may take time to reach detectable levels. Turnaround is typically one to three business days.
