Very possible: Both tissues are the same, called mucosa it has been shown that these infections and diseases can be transferred through oral sex so make sure your partner is healthy.

See doctor: See your doctor or gynecologist to examine you and determine if you need antibiotics or antifungal. Get your male friend to see dentist and get his gingivitis/periodontal disease treated before it affects his general health.
