Answer 4

Yes, men can catch a yeast infection from a woman, and usually it is them who re-infect their partner.

If you are really serious about curing your yeast infection, let me tell you that it is not an easy feat.

Yeast live in our bodies in large numbers, especially inside of the bowels, so it is not a local thing that can be cured with a topical cream.

If you really want to cure it, you need to stop eating all kinds of carbohidrates, and foods that contain yeast in their formula (beer, bread, cheese, etc). You need enemas to flush out as much yeast from your system to it gets a chance to recover, and then you need to replenish your intestinal flora by eating yogurt with live cultures.

And yes, don't forget the topical cream. If you do this, you will discover that other type of yeast/fungi will be cured like athlete foot and jock itch. Your overal health will improve in unbelievable ways, and you will feel full of energy as you are no longer being drained by those little buggers.

Answer 5

Yes. Men do catch yeast infection from their partner having the infection.

Please make sure your partner's symptom of yeast infection is only caused by Candida Albicans. In another words, it is recommended for your partner to pay a visit to her OBGYN, to rule out any other health issue having similar symptom.

To give you some general info on Yeast Infection ....

Yeast infection usually is cause by over population of Candida Albicans in the vagina, rectum, and mouth. While it is known to be a women health issue, men also can contract a yeast infection, if they have unprotected sexual activity with a partner who has a yeast infection (NOTE: Yeast infection IS NOT a STD).

A yeast infection will not cause the women to miss her period. Actually the period should clear up any mild yeast infection, since fungal causing the infection (Candida Albicans) don't like the PH created by menstrual bleeding.

Factors that may contribute to development of yeast infection are as follow:
•Antibiotic treatments (it is recommended while taking antibiotic to eat plain yogurt having “active Yeast” as one of its ingredients)
•Oral contraceptives
•Hot weather or non-ventilating clothing, which increase moisture and warmth, fostering fungal growth
•Repeated intercourse over a short period of time
•Stress
•Suppressed immune system (including HIV)
•High carbohydrate intake, especially refined sugars and alcohol
•Pregnancy
•Diabetes
•In cases, it has been observed that certain types of soaps, powders, new detergents and other products which cause irritation.
While there are many over counter medication to treat Yeast Infection, it is always advised to see a physician to ensure the symptoms are only yeast infection and nothing else. Note that there are other health problems, including a few STDs which have similar symptoms, thus they should be ruled out ASAP.

While yeast infections can cause severe discomfort and rarely cause serious health problems, recurring yeast infections may be difficult to prevent or cure, due to other underlying problems.
