Brief Answer:
At times you may be carrying infection
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Greetings
I can understand your situation.
You can consult your urologist to rule out any hidden infection in your genital tract.If so a course of antimicrobials will cure your problem.
Mean while she can also have an internal examination ( speculum examination) to rule out any chronic infection.If so she can use vaginal pessaries .If both of you take treatment simultaneously it can be easily corrected.Avoid sex during the treatment period.
Feel free to ask your doubt with more details.
