HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
This should not occur as a result of the contraceptive
It is possible that your partner needs to be treated.
If the infection is resolving with the antibiotics then recurring either it is not being appropriately treated or you are being re exposed.
A swab would determine the exact pathogen and the appropriate antibiotics to take.
If you are treated appropriately and still have a problem, your partner needs treatment.
I hope this helps
