Yes it is possible that Streptococcal infection can be transmitted by oral sex. If you are in child bearing age and planning then sometimes Streptococcus agalactae may interfere and cause complications in pregnancy also. You are advised to get Urine/Vaginal culture done and take the treatment accordingly based on sensitivity pattern. Yes it is possible that he might have picked it from another sexual partner too.
