Do dh and I keep giving each other thrush?

Sorry if tmi...dh and I both woke up after a night of passion (well, ok, a drunken saturday night quickie ) with very itchy, er, bits. This has happened before. I am still suffering despite taking the thrush pill and slathering on the cream. I presume this is thrush as I have all the symptoms, itching,soreness, not much discharge though (sorry yuck). Question is - can we give it to each other like this? Neither of us had any symptoms before saturday night (although we have had it before). Just worried that it might be..something else.

If it is just you who had the treatment, he could be reinfecting you

can men take the pill? I though you just applied the cream to the affected 'parts'

yes the men can take the pill.

last time i was like this it was a bladder infection instead, but took a while for it to present with the usual symptoms.

watching with interest. we have this too. I have had colposcopy for other stuff today and asked her to do a swab for thrush to double check. DH is diabetic and sometimes gets mild thrush if his sugar is too high so I blame him!.
