Can men get infected if women have inflammation

When women suffer from inflammation, there is a possibility of infection in men, but the specific risk depends on the type of inflammation, transmission route, and protective measures. Inflammation of the reproductive system, such as vaginitis and cervicitis, may be transmitted through sexual contact, while other non communicable inflammations do not cause infection. When female inflammation is caused by pathogens such as bacteria, fungi, or viruses, sexual activity may become a route of transmission. For example, sexually transmitted diseases such as trichomonas vaginitis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection have a higher probability of infection when male partners do not take protective measures. This type of inflammation is usually accompanied by abnormal secretions, itching, or burning sensation, and requires joint treatment from both parties to avoid repeated cross infection. Daily attention should be paid to sexual hygiene, and using condoms can reduce the risk of transmission. If female inflammation belongs to non communicable diseases, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis and other non-specific inflammations, it is usually not transmitted through sexual contact. This type of inflammation is often related to weakened immunity, endocrine disorders, or iatrogenic procedures, so male partners do not need to worry excessively. However, it is important to pay attention to the physical condition of women to avoid exacerbating inflammation and causing other complications. It is recommended that male partners assist in observing changes in symptoms and accompany medical examination in a timely manner. Regardless of the type of inflammation, keeping both genitals clean and avoiding high-risk sexual behavior are the basis for preventing infection. When symptoms such as frequent urination, painful urination, or abnormal secretions occur, men should seek medical attention promptly at the urology or dermatology department. During the treatment period, sexual activity should be suspended, medication should be taken according to the doctor's advice, and regular follow-up checks should be conducted to confirm whether the pathogen has been cleared. It is recommended to supplement probiotics appropriately in daily life to maintain the balance of the microbiota, and wear breathable cotton underwear to reduce the irritation of humid environments on the skin.
