My Parter Was Recently Diagnosed With Lyme Disease And Is
My parter was recently diagnosed with lyme disease and is currently being treated with antibiotics. After intercourse, I frequently experience vaginal bleeding and/or spotting. This only happens after we have had intercourse. My partner and I have both been tested for STD's with no concerns there. With the current debate on whether lyme disease can be sexually transmitted, I thought it pertinent to determine if I am indeed at risk of sexual transmission and if vaginal bleeding after sex is associated with lyme at all?
