Hello Sujith,
Just to be sure, does he have oral thrush (ie in his mouth)?
Is he being treated?
How long has he had it?
Are you asking about vaginal sex or oral sex?

No it is not oral sex

I am asking in regards XX XXXXXXX sex

He has started using a cream that I am currently using also but this is just to relieve the symptoms. Will be going to the doctor later this week for a prescription for treatment.

In his penis

Accepted Answer

Thank you,

Then yes, I would avoid vaginal sex until he is tested and does not have evidence of thrush.
