I believe candida can spread through sex and kissing as well. So you might want to avoid both until your recovered. Its easy to reinfect yourself if your girlfriend or fuckbuddy has it too. Although its possible that its always in you, yet held in control by other yeasts and bacteria. Also it might be helpful to avoid eating mushrooms and other yeast products too. Weirdly that may make things worse, even though its a different species of yeast.
