Recurrent urinary tract infections should have alerted your doctors to the possibility of havng diabetes (it's a common symptom of diabetes), especially since they happened after having too much sugar.
Recurrent yeast infections (skin, vaginal, urinary) are also common in diabetics.
I would get tested for diabetes. Because you may be taking care of the symptoms rather than the problem.
Regarding the sugar issue....yeast thrives with moisture and with sugar.
With my last preg I had at least 2 yeast infections. I found washing with vagisil ph balance worked. Avoid sugar. Multiple infections can be a sign of GD. Have you had your glucose test yet?
There is a correlation between yeast infections and diabetes that is documented. If you have too much sugar circulating which is part of type 2 diabetes, sugars link to yeast overgrowth would then come into play. https://www.webmd.com/diabetes/diabetes-thrush I would try to cut down on sugar in your diet if you haven't already, do the things necessary to deter developing full diabetes (manage diet, exercise, etc.) which should also help with multiple yeast infections.
I am not sure if he has Type 1 or Type 2 but there is a condition that several people with Type 1 diabetes also have called Celiac Sprue and one of the symptoms is a skin rash but other than that, I have not heard of diabetes causing a rash.

Yes, you certainly should get tested. You posted on the Type 2 diabetes board because Type 1 is (incorrectly) labelled "Juvenile Type", but you could get Type 1 at any age (ditto type 2). Make sure they do an A1C or an OGTT or both. If you don't have diabetes, you certainly do need to see a doctor to figure out what is going on. Let us know how it goes.
Some antibotics can cause yeast infections in females not sure if its the same for guys.. And I'm pretty sure if you have a yeast infection you can past it to a male during unprotected sex, someone correct me if I'm wrong.
I get yeast infections all the time but she might want to check for trich as well. Not to put you down for possibly giving it to her, men can have it and never know. If she has it you need to get treated as well (even if it doesn't show up in your test there are many false negatives for men). I have it, took months to find because it was never under the microscope and I thought I was OK because I always use protection and have only been with two men in my whole life.
they will prescribe you something safe for baby. Sometimes yeast infections can mimic bv, a common bacterial infection in pregnancy.
I always get yeast infections after oral sex with my boyfriend. It hasnt always been like this but after the first time i got one they have always came back after oral.

Since having my hysterectomy I have recurrent yeast infections (which has been verified via gyno) Before my hysterectomy I had 2 yeast infections my whole life. From what I've read it seems to be a common issue among women who've had a hysterectomy. I guess I'm curious as to what the causes could be. I had read that the ovaries stop functioning properly more quickly after a hysterectomy and he said no. He also recommended douching with baking soda.
My mom had recurring yeast infections as a child, which I just recently found out about, and was diagnosed two years ago with diabetes. I have had my blood checked often for my blood sugar levels, so I know that diabetes is not a factor right now. Thanks for the help in advance. This is driving me crazy!
