Is It Safe To Have Sex In Condition Of Epididymitis?
My husband was diagnosed with epididymitis and has been on antibiotis for 5 days. If the infection is not caused by an std is it safe for us to have sex or could I have caught this bacteria off him and now spread it back to him? Should I be tested for any infection?
