This is TMI and so embarrassing I feel awful. I had thrush a few weeks back and despite my partner knowing I had it we still had sex! I used cream to clear mine up and he must have caught it cause now he's got it too but its not really bad just a bit itchy and redness. I made him check after I started getting itchy again after sex. Now he's using the canesten cream. How long will it take to clear on a man? I've tried to explain we can't have sex until his clears up or we will keep passing it back and forth .. Annoying much lol
