Best Answer

The Lice does not spread because of sex. It is NOT a sexually transmitted infection as such.

The lice spread by close contact or sharing hats/scarfs etc.

Since having sex is rather difficoult without close contact, you can almost be sure that if your partner has got it, then you will get it too.
