A member asked:
Can thrush be contracted from sex if neither partner has it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Thrush, a yeast infection in the mouth, often follows antibiotic or steroid medications but can occur without either of these risk factors. I suppose that oral sex with a woman who, has a vaginal yeast infection could cause thrush.
