Yes, it is possible for a male to get a yeast infection from sexual contact with a female who has a yeast infection. But just because your girlfriend has a yeast infection doesn't mean you will get one. Male yeast infections are much less common than yeast infections in women.

A male yeast infection is usually a minor problem that can be easily treated with an anti-fungal cream or ointment. If you have signs and symptoms of a male yeast infection — such as itching or burning at the tip of your penis, or a red rash on your penis — consult your doctor.

By the way, women can also get yeast infections from men. So it's important to treat both partners if a yeast infection is suspected. To minimize the risk of passing the infection to a partner, it is generally recommended that you abstain from sexual activity until all of your symptoms are gone.

You can use Lotrimin that can be obtained at a pharmacy or Gentian Violet , which is a natural and safe alternative. One word of warning; Gentain Violet will stain your clothes purple. People have reported that spraying your clothes with hair spray or Zout stain remover before washing takes the stains out.

Men can get it. Whats scary is that they become carriers. It remains dormant in there body's.
Men show no symptoms they could carry it around for years and never know.

They are usually totally unaware they have a male yeast infection due to the outside temperature of the skin being about 77 degrees keeping the infection dormant. But the vaginal canal, being a very inviting place for yeast to grow, can activate the infection in the woman. Before the female notices symptoms, she can give it right back to the male.
get your man checked out, if you have it he has it. If you go get treated and have sex with your man you'll just get it again and again

Hello, I'm on the second week and seeing definite improvement on my yeast infection symptoms:

Note that: If the yeast infection doesn't respond to over the counter treatment, prescription medication will likely be necessary. Similarly, if the symptoms return after two months of being treated, you should contact the doctor for professional treatment rather than resorting again to home treatment.

If this is the first time you have experienced a yeast infection, you should schedule an appointment to have the condition treated by a doctor instead of resorting to home treatment

Yes a male can get a yeast infection. If you have discharge and soreness or itchiness, you may have one but the only way you can know for sure what it is is to find out from a doctor. Unfortunately you can`t usually cure it on your own, you`ll have to buy something to treat it.
