Answer 2

Answer 3

Possibly. If the soap changed the ph balance in your vagina, then yes. I work in family planning and our nurse practitioner has kittens when anyone talks about soap touching their vulva. You can use it to wash around the outside, but don't go crazy down there, regardless of the type of soap you use. Soap changes PH.

And, as usual, I'll add what I always add: before you decide it's a yeast infection, be sure it's not an STD. Lots of women assume they have a yeast infection without having it checked out. See your doctor before you buy something over the counter.

Answer 4

could be infection if someone else used the soap or just that your skin is super sensitive.. remember...antibiotics cause many yeast infections..so look at the big pictue...write down everything new in the last 3 days...you will find your answer..if bothersome call your doc. yogurt stops a yeast infection till you can get to the doctor

Answer 5

YEP... You can get one from almost any kind of change. Dietary, underwear material, perfume, changing moisturizer. I never get yeast infections, but my sisters do, and my one sister cant eat onions without getting them. Also check medications, if you've recently started taking any kind of antibiotic or Rx mediciine, alot of times those can cause yeast infections in a few people.

Answer 6

In short, yes it can cause a yeast infection.
This is why: vaginal yeast infections are caused by Candida albicans, which, along with a few types of bacteria, are normally present in relatively small numbers in your crotch. sometimes the yeast multiply rapidly and take over, causing a full-fledged yeast infection, or, in the heart-warming terminology of the medical establishment, candidiasis or monilia. this can be due to a change in the vaginal environment, injury, sexual transmission, or HIV. common environmental disruptions that favor yeast include increased pH, increased heat and moisture, allergic reactions, elevated sugar levels, hormonal fluxes, and reductions in the populations of bacteria that are normally present. these can generally be traced to a few categories of culprits: antibiotics, clothing, chemicals, condoms, diet, hormones, injury, sexual transmission and hormones.

Answer 7

yeast infection I'm not sure...a rash definately...if you are sensitive to soaps I would try dove...it's one of the most gentle soaps out there because it has alot of pure ingridents....coast burns my skin...I can't go near it

Answer 8

yes you can. from my understanding, us girls shouldn't be using soaps down there because that will change our vaginal flora. meaning we kill off the normal bacteria that reside on our vagina and the yeast cells flourish.

Answer 9

Yes, you can. So can eating certain foods in excess, taking anti-biotics, wearing non-breathable clothing and stress. Or a combination of all of those.
