A member asked:
I think i have oral thrush. i wanted to know if it could be transmitted through oral sex or kissing. and when will it go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely thrush: As an adult it is very rare to acquire thrush. It is seen in adults typically only if they are immunocompromised- receiving chemotherapy, etc. This may not be thrush and i suggest you have a doctor take a look to be sure.
