Can bacterial vaginosis cause my boyfriend to get bumps on his privates?

I have bacterial vaginosis, could this cause my boyfriend to get red itchy bumps on his gentials and penis after we have sex? Or could it be that he has bacterial vaginosis?
Is there a over the counter medicine my boyfriend can get it to cure it? Or once i am cured, will he not get it again?

Well, the word "vaginosis" means infection or disease of the vagina, so no he doesn’t have that.

However, if you have a bacterial infection in your vagina, and his penis was in there, then yes he probably has the bacterial infection in his penis. He needs to go to the doctor quickly.

================

Edit: You have a bacterial infection. It sounds like he has contracted the bacterial infection as well. There is no over the counter cure for that, he has to go to the doctor.

You also need to stop having sex until you are both cured. If one of you takes antibiotics and the other doesn’t, you’ll just get reinfected and no one will get better.

He needs a doctor. If it’s possible, I’d avise you to both go in together so a doctor can talk to you both at the same time to reduce confusion.

no, and im doing a powerpoint/ science project on this too, so i know alot about this. Men cant get BV but i advise u to get a treatment because it is curable.
and r u bi?
im just asking because its mainly lesbians that get this, or u can just get it by douching, smoking, having sex with a female partner, or having sex with many partners, and also by sharing sex toys.
