It is possible he could get a urinary tract infection from you, so I believe both of you need to be treated simultaneously with antibiotics.

Definitely, otherwise you could pass it to him, he could pass it right back, and you'd both have it for forever!

I'd suggest condoms for a while, and antibiotics for both of you. Of course, if you tell your doc that you are sexually active they should be able to tell you what you should do.
