Does My Partner Need To Be Treated For My Yeast
Infection?
__________________________________________________________________
Men
do not often show the symptoms of a yeast infection, but
that does not mean that they do not have one. Sexual
transmission of a yeast infection between heterosexual
couples is the most common way that males get
yeast infections.
It
is possible for a woman to treat her yeast infection
successfully, only to become re-infected through
intercourse with her partner, even though he shows no
symptoms of Candida.
Yeast infections are easily passed from body to body, so
if you have an active yeast infection, you should:
-
refrain from vaginal intercourse
-
wash you hands after touching your or your partners
crotch
-
keep any sex toys really clean
Candida is not classified as a sexually transmitted
disease because the bacteria exists naturally in all
healthy humans. However, it does pass easily during
sexual contact, so you must take care.
When
male symptoms do appear, they can be quite painful
disfiguring. Click on this

are rare.
