Yes. Yeast infections are fungal and they are common. Sounds yucky but almost all females have the problem at some time or other. Good luck.

Yeast is not a fungus. A fungus is multicellular, and yeast single celled organisms. All a yeast or yes a fungus requires is moisture, warmth, and darkness. All of which can be found in the genitals of both males and females.

I'm pretty surprised when you get "expert advise" from males on this subject especially on the difference on yeast and fungus! Yeast is a form of fungus but easily treated. A heavy fungus is hell to get rid of. It is the form that is called ringworm. Ringworm is totally uncorrelated to the name that it implies. Ringworm is a tough resistant fungus that takes months to get rid of and is very aggressive in spreading and likes to stick around and become annoying to the skin!
