I suffer from bladder infections often, and I have never given them to my boyfriend. I don't think it is possible. I usually get them because of sex because my doc said that semen and bodily fluids can get pushed up into your urethra during intercourse. That is why your always supposed to go to the bathroom afterwards. But no as far as I kow you cannot give him a bladder infection because you do.

the drug store has these pills called uristat and they ease the pain and stop the burning. They do turn your urine a bright orange color. I would suggest using them until you can get to a doctor.

Bladder infections are not contagious. And skipping your period with the pill cannot cause a uti infection. You said you had sex saturday, you probably did get bacteria pushed up in there then. Also, it is perfectly safe to skip your period as long as every three months you let yourself have one. But be careful, because everyone has different side effects.
