The worst hazard to him might be if he's uncircumcised. Then the yeast fungus can grow under the foreskin. Otherwise, if he washes thoroughly, it shouldn't be an issue for him.
If he develops itching or redness however, he should see his doctor and tell him/her that you're treating a yeast infection. I'm assuming you're treating it, right??

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

While I don't think it can do much to him (if, in fact, it is a yeast infection), he could give it back to you after you take treatment for it. You should talk to your doctor (MD or GYN) about what to do.
If you have had yeast infections in the past, it is probably okay for you to use the over-the-counter remedies (Monostat, etc). If this is your first yeast infection--you need to see the doctor--it could be something else.

He still can have a yeast infection even without symptoms. But usually the yeast turns to spores outside a moist environment which can then reinfect you. My doctor recommended using Monistat or Cansten cream for him or as a lubricant during intercourse. You yourself should get check out at the doctor and get the Diflucan pill faster, better less messy.

yeast infections are not contagious. You can buy the meds over the counter in pharmacy. though you may have Bacterial Vaginitis its more common. Bacterial Vaginitis must be treated and you have to go the dr. to get a prescription for it. Don't worry its not dangerous or an STD.
Vaginitis is an inflammation of the vagina that can result in discharge, itching and pain. The cause is usually a change in the normal balance of vaginal bacteria or an infection. Vaginitis can also result from reduced estrogen levels after menopause.
The most common types of vaginitis are:
* Bacterial vaginosis. This type of vaginitis results from overgrowth of one of several organisms normally present in your vagina, upsetting the natural balance of vaginal bacteria. More than one in six pregnant women in the United States has bacterial vaginosis, though many aren't aware of it.
* Yeast infections. A naturally occurring fungus called Candida albicans usually causes this type of vaginitis. An estimated three out of four women will have a yeast infection in their lifetime.
* Trichomoniasis. This type is caused by a parasite and is commonly transmitted by sexual intercourse.
* Atrophic vaginitis. This type results from reduced estrogen levels after menopause. The vaginal tissues become thinner and drier, which may lead to itching, burning or pain.
Signs and symptoms
Vaginitis symptoms may include:
* Change in color, odor or amount of discharge from your vagina
* Vaginal itching or irritation
* Pain during intercourse
* Painful urination
* Light vaginal bleeding
Additionally, you may have these signs and symptoms depending on the type of vaginitis:
* Bacterial vaginosis. You may develop a grayish-white, foul-smelling discharge. The odor, often described as fish-like, may be more obvious after sexual intercourse.
* Yeast infections. The main symptom is itching, but you may have a white, thick discharge that resembles cottage cheese.
* Trichomoniasis. This infection can cause a greenish yellow, sometimes frothy discharge.
I hope this help. If you have a planned parenthood in your neighborhood you can go there for treatment or a STD clinic at the Department of Health clinic because they wont charge and you don't need insurance and its confidential. Hope that helps

Although it is rare, you can transmit a yeast infection to your partner through sexual intercourse. If your partner begins to develop symptoms of a yeast infection, talk to a doctor about treatment options

Guys can get yeast infections, yes, but they are typically not severe at all since it is exposed to the air and the air kills it very quickly.
Eat yogurt.
