Does my husband need treatment if I test positive for aerobic vaginitis?

Thank you for reaching out with your question regarding aerobic vaginitis (AV) and the implications for your husband. It's important to understand that certain bacteria associated with AV can indeed be transmitted between partners. This includes organisms like Ureaplasma, group B strep, E. coli, Enterococcus, and Lactobacillus iners.

To ensure a comprehensive approach to treatment and to help prevent reinfection, it is advisable for your husband to be evaluated and potentially treated as well. This collaborative approach can help both of you achieve better health outcomes.

For more detailed information and specific recommendations, I encourage you to check out our article on partner treatment strategies. While it primarily addresses Ureaplasma, many of the suggestions are applicable to other bacteria associated with AV as well.

While clearing my Ureaplasma, what do you recommend for my partner?
