Can men be affected by yeast infections?




I got a yeast infection a couple of days ago around the same time I had sex… I hear men don’t get affected by it and something like 10-12% get a rash on their penis? Anyways is it necessary to tell the guy I have one?
Well I keep hearing yeast infections are NOT sexually transmitted though.

How do I prevent recurring yeast infections.?




Over the course of six months I’ve had really, bad yeast infections and they just keep coming back. I went to the doctor today because I have been having alot of itching but no discharge for a couple months. She told me that it is a yeast infection and she gave me a stronger dose of medication…

The question is how do I prevent them from occuring? They drive me crazy and I dont know why they arent going away. What can I do so it dosent come back

How to use yogurt to ease yeast infections?




I know that putting plain yogurt into your vag can help with yeast infections…but how do I get it in there? I am not going to freeze it because I have roommates and I am not going to put a bunch of yogurt filled tampons in our freezer. Besides that I’m not to keen on the idea of sticking icicles in there.

How else can I get the yogurt in?

Thank you

Within the past 2 months I’ve had 3 yeast infections, and maybe one was from one not going away. I’m on Yasmine and could this be the reason? What birth control should I switch to?

Does yogurt help prevent yeast infections?




I’ve heard that if u eat yogurt it will help keep yeast infections away. if so, how much do u have 2 eat a day. I’ve also heard that u could dip a tampon in yogurt and wear it 4 direct contact in the vagina. About how long do u keep it in the vagina for it 2 work? Does this also get rid of vaginal odor?

I have to be on birth control pills due to midcycle spotting and severe cramps. But I keep getting yeast infections. They’re chronic and go away only to come back in a few days. Is it safe to take acidophilus pills on a regular basis? Maybe I don’t have enough good bacteria in my system to decrease the yeast growth.

a doctor once told me sometimes once you treat a yeast infection you will get a bacteria infection.then he said that i can use something to block the yeast infections.because once i treat one or the other another comes so its an ongoing process.it will stop for a little while but eventually it comes back.any advice would be good advice.i can find it ,where or what should i do?

More susceptible to yeast infections while on BC?




Are you more susceptible to yeast infections while you’re on birth control? I’ve had four different ones since I started about three months ago.
Thanks for the advice! I should’ve said this first:I’m not sexually active, I’m taking this to regulate my periods, so I’m not getting it from anyone.
