Avatar m tn It may just be coincidental that this started around the same time as you started using the suntan lotion. However it could be that you have a reaction to the suntan cream. It does sound like a UTI though which you will need antibiotics for, you don't need to tell the Dr about the suntan lotion, all the Dr will want to know is your symptoms in order to prescribe to you.
Avatar n tn oral sex (literally) on me) My question is, was it possible for me to have given her a yeast infection via oral sex. And if so, did I get it by using a water based lubricant (cos I used lube for masturbation) or through receiving oral sex from a past partner? I'm kinda worried for my new partners, just in case. Thanks.
Avatar f tn Fluconazole does work on yeast infections as it is an antifungal. Clindamycin is different and is an antibiotic. It fights bacteria, not yeast or fungus. Clindamycin can create a situation in which you get a yeast infection. It's not used to treat a yeast infection but fluconazole is.
Avatar f tn Yes, you can get a yeast infection as a virgin. Women often get a yeast infection, for example. after taking certain antibiotics, which can disturb the normal healthy balance of the vagina. However, it is also possible to get bacterial infections (again while still being a virgin), not just yeast infections, so it is important to get it checked out to see what organism might be causing the problem and whether a medication might be needed to clear it up.
Avatar m tn Is her tongue white? Thrush doesn't usually manifest as a sore on the outside of the lips, as candida requires a moist environment to survive. Just wondering if this has been diagnosed and if the other symptoms of thrush are there because if it's just this sore again are you sure it's yeast?
12172462 tn?1435281388 ve tried probiotics, cotton underwear peeing after sex everything u can think of and none has really helped. I always get a yeast infection after I have sex with my boyfriend. Sex kinda hurts and maybe because theres lack of lubricant. So I went and bought some water based lube. We used it saturday. I did feel a bit of pain but not like before, but the lube seemed to dry up quickly so maybe i need to try a different kind.
Avatar f tn There are over the counter remedies for yeast infections. Are you certain it's a yeast infection. I understand you covering up in front of the parents about your sexual activity. However people can get yeast infections & it doesn't have to mean anything sexual. Incorrectly wiping, called back to front is the main cause of yeast infections. Please ask your parents to take you to the doctor. Keep posting. Thank you.
Avatar f tn You could get a rx for yeast infection medicine, but fixing your diet may be needed. As your doctor if 100% clear aloe vera is a good lubricant for you. It may help control yeast.

Avatar f tn She went to her doctor and he said that the fact that he is uncircumsized has nothing to do with it. You may have a yeast infection or even a UTI. My husband is circumsized and when I have a UTI or Yeast infection it does burn during intercourse......
Avatar f tn If you use a condom or lubricant, you can have a sensitivity to them sometimes. If you did not use either, and he entered you before you were 'ready' for him (meaning the natural swelling and wetness that occurs when a female becomes aroused), him moving in and out of you can cause small micro tears which can burn afterwards. Its like if you get a small cut on your finger and then get salt into it. Burning in no way means you are pregnant.
Avatar f tn But it is unlikely to have come from a toilet seat. It could even have come from measures you have been taking to try to cleanse yourself due to worry about the incident on the trip.
Avatar n tn if you had a boyfriend and he gave you a yeast infection and you go get treated for yours but you still mess with the boy and use a condom can you get it again
Avatar m tn The symptoms of meatal infection (yeast, bacteria or other pathogens), are basically just what you've described--inflammation. If it's inflammation from infection, it may get worse when it's wet or when exposed to a source of nutrition (which can be semen and/or urine in different cases)--though it need not necessarily do this.

Avatar m tn Is it possible a man doing giving oral sex to a women who has yeast infection on her vagina will get Candida in the mouth which will then go down the stomach? The reason why i am asking is because many of symptoms of Candida are what I am experience but the HIV tests are negative and as you have said you can't get HIV from Oral sex. There are others who are going through this as well and their tests for HIV have all come back negative.

Avatar f tn Hi,the most common cause of vaginal infection that is a lot of times confused with yeast infection is called Bacterial vaginosis(BV),which happens when the natural inhabiting flora bacteria in the vagina are too low in number which reduces the acidity or ph level inside the vagina which when normal keeps natural inhabiting bad bacteria under control. These higher number of bad bacteria produce toxins which makes it more difficult for the healthy flora to rebalance.
Avatar n tn Hi Blue, A yeast infection can go back and forth between you both, its best if you both go on meds to clean it up, even if he shows no infection.
