Hi Sir, I do have typhoid 1 year back and that was cured with 15 days course. This month I had physical relationship and now my partner has been diagnosed with typhoid & she is 1 week delayed in her period. So my question is - My partner has typhoid because I had typhoid earlier or my partner has typhoid because of some other cause (contaminated food or water)?
