According to emedicinehealth, "The most common test for women is a wet mount, a microscopic evaluation of fluid from the vagina.
In women, the trich parasite may also be identified by a routine Pap test done as part of a regular gynecologic exam. Expert opinions vary on the accuracy of a Pap test for diagnosing trich. "
If she has been seen by her gynecologist regularly and has had a pap smear done, physical exam might have revealed some signs.
Visual exam of the genitals, vagina, or cervix might have shown patchy red spots that are caused by trich. Any vaginal discharge would have been assessed for color, odor, and texture. A sample of discharge would then have been sent for a wet mount test.
