    Trichomoniasis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Good thing it is curable. Get your boyfriend tested and get treated and yes there are many ways of possibly getting this without having spread sexually.

    I'd be more inclined to believe the CDC than Wikipedia.

    Short answer. No, you cannot get trich from sitting on a toilet. It is considered one of the sexually transmitted diseases, although not a reportable STD as is syphilis for example.

    If you have it, you got it from your boyfriend. If you are being treated, he must be treated as well. Now you need to find out where he got it from.
