Yes, you can get it from normal mouth bacteria, and then you could spread that bacteria back and forth genitally.
Your NGU might just be from your prostatitis, though. You should follow up with your doctor.

Thanks for your comments. I have heard that NGU can be contracted through oral sex - but am not sure if this originates from normal mouth bacteria or from having previously performed oral sex on an infected partner. I am also not sure if NGU contracted from normal mouth bacteria can be spread back to the infecting partner through intercourse and start a back and forth syndrom involvng only two people.
Do you have any additional insights into this. They would be greatly appreciated.
How about that you are trying to get rid of whatever it is, and you all might just be passing something back and forth. That's basically a true statement, right?
The timing does suggest it was from the other encounter, but if you had contact with your wife at that time, you truly don't know where its from.

I am fairly certain I started the exchange based on the timing of my mess-up, typical incubation periods for NGU, and the start of my symptoms. At the start of my symptoms I was tested postitive for NGU at a clinic and treated. The symptoms subsided After treatment, I had sex with my wife, and after the same incubation period, the symptoms returned.
What I really need to accomplish is to get my wife tested and treated without revealing the history and am struggling to come up with a way to do this.
How do you know that your wife isn't giving you NGU via oral sex? If she gives you oral sex, she could be sharing a normal mouth bacteria that you could also give to her genitally. She should be treated for that.
Also, your white blood cells could strictly be related to your prostatitis, and not have anything to do with sex.
In any case, your doctor can not talk to your wife without your knowledge. And it would be a good idea for her to get treated on the off chance that you are passing some bacteria back and forth.
