We got my boyfriend a diflucan to take but it didnt seem to help. what can i do to stop these other than stopping oral sex completely.

Hello,
Various reasons for recurrent or persistent fungal infection are incomplete treatment, treatment resistance), co-existing dermatitis, diabetes and low immunity. You and your boyfriend should get a repeat examination and oral antifungals prescribed.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

You've stumped ME on this one. Usually if you are both treated, the problem is resolved. Why this happens ONLY after oral is the real mystery. Do the doctors not have ANY idea why this may be?
Has your b/f seen a urologist to determine if HE has an infection that is resistant to the antibiotics? Have you both had oral cultures done to see what grows?
Have you ever JUST had oral sex so you know for absolute certain the infection has to be spread orally? How about kissing with no sex?
I wish there was a specialist I could recommend you both talk with, but I honestly don't know who that would be. I'd start with your OB/GYN......if he/she can't figure it out, I'm guessing they will know where to send you.
I wish you the best..........must be a real drag!
