My partner has symptoms of a vaginal yeast or bacterial infection, including itching and burning. Is it safe to have unprotected sex with her, and what medications are recommended to treat this condition?

Asked by Male, 28 · 13 days ago

It is best to avoid unprotected sex until your partner is fully treated and symptom-free. Sex can worsen her irritation, delay healing, and occasionally cause mild, temporary irritation for you. For a yeast infection, common treatments include over-the-counter antifungal creams like clotrimazole or miconazole, or a prescription oral pill like fluconazole. If it is a bacterial infection, she will require prescription antibiotics such as metronidazole or clindamycin. Since the treatments differ, she should consult a healthcare provider for an accurate diagnosis. Please do not worry; both conditions are incredibly common, easily treatable, and highly manageable.
