How do I know if i’ve passed a yeast infection to my boyfriend?

Posted by admin under yeast infection

I’m 18 and i’ve been taking tri-cyclen lo birth control for about 4 months. I frequently have yeast infections and i never know if i could be passing the infection to my boyfriend. We don’t use a condom but he pulls out. So if i have a yeast infection can it be passed to my boyfriend. How would he know if he had a yeast infection? What would be the symptoms for a male yeast infection? How do we both get rid of completely and prevent it from happening?

Yes, guys can get yeast infections. He would start feeling itching and tenderness in the skin where the yeast cells were digging into the skin.

However – guys have a much easier time keeping things clean and dry so its a lot less common for guys to get yeast and easier to treat. (Heck – he can spray himself with athletes foot powder or spray to fix it.)

In general yeast grows where moisture is. Keeping the hairs trimmed so moisture does not have a place to hide, wearing pantie liners to wick away moisture helps, not wearing underwear or wearing ‘boy boxers’ at night to let air circulate down there can help.

But – taking anti-biotics, over-washing the area and some problems like diabetes removes your natural yeast-fighting discharge. If the problem is chronic – you might want to see a doctor.

    it’s not very common for men to get yeast infection, but if they do, the symptoms sre pretty much the same as with women: itching, redness, soreness. he’ll know if he has got yeast infection. talk to your doctor about preventing yeast infection, drug stores only have products to cure an existing infection.

    I do not belive he would even get it! But it would hurt, just like it hurts u when u pee and so on!
    He should be fine!

    If he is itchy and he tests positive – then you passed it on. He can get tested at the doctors. If that is out – buy an over the counter test at walmart or the drug store.

    Good luck :-/
