WAITING PERIOD
HOW LONG MUST YOU WAIT BEFORE HAVING SEX AFTER BEING TREATED FOR AN INFECTION?ESPECIALLY IN A SITUATION WHERE YOU WANT TO START A FAMILY.
GynaeDoc
If you had thrush, your partner can be treated and then you can have sex. If it is another type of infection, he still needs to be treated, but you should then wait till the symptoms have cleared.
