      You can have it for years and not know bc you might not have all the symptoms and if you don't ask for a culture it might not be told to you during your pap.

      This was several years ago.. I had a hysterectomy so no periods.. It is an STD but it seems that everyone that I have encountered with chronic BV has had Trich at some point in thier lives and most of them were not sexually active or either in a commited relationship.. I was thinking it was somehow related
