Typically, trichomonas is treated with a single two gram dose of metronidazole. After that, you may be contagious for a week until the cure is complete.
It will take up to 2 weeks to be cured from Trich after treatment.
Trichomoniasis can be cured with prescription drugs given by mouth in a single dose. The symptoms of trichomoniasis in infected men may disappear within a few weeks without treatment. However, an infected man, can continue to infect or re-infect a female partner until he has been treated. Therefore, both partners should be treated at the same time to eliminate the parasite.

You need to go to a doctor, nurse practitioner, or physicians' assistant and get medication. Many people go to the public health department. You will have a swab taken from your genitals for examination; you find out right away if you are infected. Get your partner tested, and throw out your sex toys (there is no good way to get all the germs off of sex toys to the best of my knowledge).

Metronidazole can be given in one 2 gram dose or 500mg twice a day for one week. Sometimes this needs to be repeated. you should feel better after the medication in a few days. Go back to the doctor if you are not sure you are all better.
Normally, it takes trichomoniasis seven days to go away after single-dose treatment. Patients should abstain from sex, even with a condom, until treatment is complete. If you still have symptoms a week after single-dose treatment, abstain from sex and see your health care provider for repeat testing, as antibiotic resistance is increasingly common.
About 2 weeks to completely kill the protozoa.
