Prostatitis & STD's

[amber16]

My partner of several months was recently diagnosed with Prostatitis and is currently taking Cipro. After a drunken evening a couple weeks ago I had a sexual encounter with someone else and engaged in unprotected sex but I stopped him within a few minutes of penetration. I was wondering how likely it is that an STD may have caused him to develop prostatitis and whether or not I should get tested for STD's. I am having no signs and symptoms I just wanted some advice.
Thank you so much.

If you partner had unprotected sex, I imagine that you would want him to get tested. Its a good idea for you to get tested. Sometimes bacterial infections that are transmitted sexually can cause prostatitis.

If your partner is taking Cipro, then getting him tested won't help much, as it will most likely be negative anyway.  Instead, YOU should be tested.   Yes, there is a very good chance that his prostatitis is due to a STD, given this set of circumstances.  And if you still have something and don't receive treatment, you will only reinfect him.

The majority of females with bacterial STDs have no symptoms.
