10 Symptoms of Trichomoniasis
Symptom #3: Foul Odor
Trichomona vaginalis is one of the three most common causes of vaginitis or inflammation of the vaginal canal. As such, it can cause a vaginal discharge accompanied by a foul odor, often described as musty.
This infection can also lead to the inflammation of the outer part of the cervix. Cervicitis may also be accompanied by a foul-smelling purulent discharge, that is made up by destroyed parasites and white blood cells.
