Very interesting that it shows up 100% in women's secretions but only half the time in men's. Not an exact quote. Wonder why this would be possible. So I've been sick with it 16 yrs now and my husband has had sx for only 7 yrs now. But wonder if he could have been the original carrier since he told me he had a rash long ago that was round but went over both legs like in a heat rash including his groin.
Just be careful and use protection.

Mine got tested months ago but has only been doing A-L complex. He is getting worse and I am getting better doing A-L and ANX so today we went for him to get ANX.

Is it still sexually transmitted After it has been treated though?

I would think if both partners who both test positive and are treated, then it wouldn't be but if one had treatment and not the other and they had unprotected sex, then it would be past back.
