Can dh catch bacterial vaginosis?

May 02, 2008

Dr swabbed for bacterial vaginosis, which is caused by a change in ph levels in the vagina. She gave me meds to use tonight... but, if dh and I were to have sex one last time before baby comes, before I insert the meds, is this something he can catch?

I researched this topic for you.

Men can not get bacterial vaginosis, but they can play a role in aggrivating the condition. Here is the link if you'd like to read about it...

Thanks Wannabe. I actually found that same article right after I posted this! :o) I'm okay with it if he aggravates the condition, because I start meds for it tonight, after which I can't have sex.. so.. we'll do it once real quick right before hand!

Thanks for researching it for me!
