It Is Possible For Men To Get A Yeast Infection!
To begin with, male yeast infection can arise from an infection from an infected partner
, but sometimes it would appear due to consuming too much beer or alcohol. Some types of food products that have the tendency to promote the growth of yeast can also b e the causal factor which turns on the infection. Some examples would be peanuts, pistachios, peanut butter, cauliflower and corn.Male yeast infection can be caused because of a sexual contact with women. During unprotected sex, some women who are already infected with the fungus may give it to the male partner. Women are easily infected by candida albicans since their bodies are even more sensitive to such harsh irritations. Womens vaginas are extremely delicate and sometimes the wrong food can cause various bacteria to appear around their genital area, thus exacerbating the damage to the delicate ecosystem. Performing unprotected sex will help the fungus to spread onto the male who will have even bigger issues then the woman.
The fungi will spread onto the mens penis causing further issues such as problems with the prostate glands if the necessary treatment is not sought after the initial infection is detected. Although it might seem too distant to consider the consequences and possibilities, but such small and seemingly insignificant infections can and may cause prostate cancer in the future. The fungi act slowly but certainly would cause some long-term effects if not treated properly. Symptoms like digestive problems or sexual impotence wont take too long to appear.
It is advisable not to ignore even the smallest rash because you risk bigger troubles later on. It is advisable to get checked every once in a while, or whenever you feel that something is just not right. Whether its a small rash or you just sense of discomfort around your genital area, its best to see a doctor, especially if you arent aware of all the symptoms of a yeast infection. Delaying the visit may cause serious problems with your body, and also you risk infecting your partner as well.
Sometimes yeast infection can be caused by more some strains of antibiotics that kill of the colony of healthy bacteria that control the spread of the fungus colony. When the number of these healthy bacteria drops, the rise in the number of fungus count would result. If you are currently taking antibiotics and suffer from yeast infection, talk to your doctor about it.
Men are not immune to yeast infection at all. The common misconception that the yeast infection only affects the female population is definitely misleading. In fact, the men who do suffer from yeast infection tend to experience a greater amount of pain and discomfort than the women who are afflicted by the same condition.
