  • Never heard of a man having a yeast infection, lest I be missin' sumthin somewheres...but yeah, if he has something, whatever it is, and it didn't come from you, I'd wonder about it. It should probably be first confirmed as to whether or not it's an STD though, or something else not caused by sexual intercourse.
  • Men can get yeast infections without having sex. I would not have sex with him until it is cleared up by a medical professional or you will get one. Men sometimes use a strong soap on their privates which is not good for him, have him switch to something mild, this will also help your PH balance. Male and yeast infection in boys most common causes are antibiotics, alcohol, beer, sex, wheat products, corn products, peanuts, barley, and a weakened immune system. Other than the antibiotics, the rest contribute to candida overgrowth by weakening the immune system by killing good bacteria from the over acidity they produce in the intestine.
  • Answer number one is right on. A yeast infection is not proof he fooled around.
  • Either men or women can be "carriers" of a yeast infection. That doesn't mean you HAVE one, but you have enough to give it to him. He may have brought it to the relationship. Have you had sex when you had one or just got one or just got over one? Now, all that said, if you've never had one, and he keeps himself clean, then you BOTH should be tested by a doctor, you for possibly having one that's not manifesting yet (and you can ask the doctor about how your BF could have one and you not), and him for, let's say, MORE than yeast infection. From what the DOCTOR says, you can infer whether your BF cheated or not.
  • Just as you can get a yeast infection without cheating, so too can your partner. Id be more concerned about your lack of trust than with the infection.
  • I don't know exactly how a yeast infection works, and the fact men can get one is news to me. But a couple years ago I was cleaning myself down there with shampoo in the shower. Some got in the urinary tract, and it burned like hell everytime I peed for 2 weeks. Dunno if that is the same thing or not. If it is there are plenty of excuses for it.
  • my boyfriend cheated on me so we both wen to get checked out together, i had thrush and he had nothing so sometimes things dont look as they should.
