Bacterial vaginosis

2017-07-18 17:23:51
Hey, so my female counterpart got tested by gynecologist, and she found out that she got bacterial vaginosis, and said that it comes from me and wants me to get tested and treated. I did read about it and it's mentioned that males can't get it, but she is still adamant on it. So I want to clarify on this, can I have some bacteria that I passed on to her, if yes, then what and where do I get myself tested and what are the causes and concerns for the same. Thanks.
