Don't recommend: Wait until sxs abate. It could cause pain and infect partner.

Better to wait: Best to wait until treatment done and symptoms are gone. However, it probably wouldn't hurt anything if your symptoms aren't severe; it's mostly an issue of comfort during sex. But sometimes men get penile yeast infection from their partners, and it can be transmitted back. But if your partner doesn't have a penile rash or other symptoms, I wouldn't worry about it.
