<s>[INST] my girlfriend has had thrush and i caught it by having unprotected sex. it seemed to go away for both of us by using the canisten cream but now i have it back after having sex again. she has been to get the proper pill for it today but would i need to take it too even though it only comes back when we have sex? [/INST] Hi,Ideally both partners should go for oral anti-fungal medicine like Flucanozole 150 mg once in a week for 4 weeks.If one partner is untreated then there is risk of transmitting infection to treated partner.Keep local hygiene clean, dry and airy.Ok and take care. </s>
