NGU Oral Sex

I was recently diagnosed with NGU. The day prior to my diagnosis I briefly received oral sex. What is the likelihood that I passed NGU on to the person who performed oral sex on me? Thanks

i am a generally healthy man.  one night, about a year ago, i had unprotected oral sex with a woman.  i noticed a distinctively unpleasant odor when i did this, and never went down on her again.  now, every now and again, i get odd comments from people and notice that same odor for a split second when i'm breathing in a certain direction.  if i have this person's bacteria in my mouth or throat that are causing this odor, can i successfully treat the condition with antibiotics?

it's not unusual for "normal" mouth bacteria to be the cause of ngu/nsu. there's even growing evidence that the common cause of stomach ulcers is also a frequent cause of ngu.   It's not something you really need to worry about your partner contracting orally from performing oral sex on you.  Our mouth flora is very protective as well as our saliva works to kill infection before it has a chance to overgrow.

if you have ngu/nsu, you shouldn't be having sex or receiving oral sex until it's healed. Both activities can trigger a worsening of pain which is something no one wants.

We call it NSU in the UK.No Gon or clymidia found so are you saying Jessy that no other bacteria which causes this can be passed to your partner orally.I do know that it is a very low chance of passing things orally.I just want to make sure.

You get NGU diagnosed with a NGU test, by asking what type of test he/we got,  I presume you want to know what they did, if that's so: they smear the tip of your penis on a glass slide and check for bacteria and WBCs and they do a urethral swab.  
Symptoms of NGU are discharge, and tingling/pain anywhere along urethra, pain when urinating in urethra.  Sometimes there are no symptoms.

The chances of you transmitting to your partner cause of your NGU is.. well, uncertain.

If you recently got your NGU cause of a recent oral sex episode, then she would be the one that gave it to you. You don`t specify a time frame so its hard to distinguish who gave who or who can give who the STI.

But lets say you did have the NGU the whole time, while she gave oral to you. I doubt it will be of any real issue to be concerned about if you know you are otherwise clean from other STDs. This is especially true if she does not have any symptoms around the throat or mouth. Should get a second opinion on this though from another person on this forum.

To add on what JessyJames2010 says,

NGU is Nongonococcal Urethritis.
It basically means that you have a UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) that is not caused by Gonorrhea.

This could be a lot of things from gram negative bacteria, to Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, Ureaplasma, all the other fancy bacterias that can live in your urinary tract. Did you do a urine culture? If so, the doctors would have given you the appropriate antibiotics to resolve your NGU.

NGU is not the name of a bacteria, but the name of a condition you have.  
It means you have inflamation of your urethra.  You cannot pass this condition to someone orally.

The most common cluprit of NGU is Chlamidya.   So if your asking what is the chance you gave someone oral chlamydia.. then that likelihood is very low.
