Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Trichomoniasis is the most common curable STD in young, sexually active women. An estimated 7.4 million new cases occur each year in women and men. The relative standard error for trichomoniasis estimates range from 7.5% to 13% and for other vaginitis estimates range from 16% to 30%.
Trichomonas vaginalis, a flagellate, is the most common pathogenic protozoan of humans in industrialized countries. However, it occurs worldwide.
