Did your MD say anything about your partner being treated – alot of times if your partner is not treated you will get the infection back – you may have given to him or him given it to you – I would call the MD and check about that if I were you

It should be ok to have sex now that you are done with the treatment but I would recommend checking with your doctor as well to see what they say.

Can you Have sex with your partner during treatment? If no? even if he uses a condom?

My doctor said men don’t catch BV and not to worry about that. It’s a matter of your “bad” bacteria being out of control, so it’s not like something foreign is in there wreaking havoc. It’s just an imbalance of the bacteria that are natural. Not really an “infection” the way we think of it. If you also happen to have a yeast infection, that’s a different story. He can catch that.

I read in a couple of other places online that it’s best to wait until after the treatment is over to have sex because your vagina needs time for the PH to balance out. Semen affects the PH in your vagina, so it’s best to wait. A condom might be a way around it.

The Doctor says the boyfriend can’t get BV. But he may have a yeast infection..

Flagyl can weaken the latex of condoms during treatment, just a heads up.
