Men Can Get Yeast Infections Too!

When most people think of yeast infections, they think of gross woman wearing tight pants and not bathing enough

. The next to nothing level of knowledge that most people have about what causes this is a huge reason why they are still so common. I'm not just talking to the girls either. That's right boys, your junk or even mouth is at a possible risk for it. Though your treatment doesn't include a vaginal dispenser, it's not any different than what your girlfriend, wife, or mother can get.

Now I bet you're curious, so how do guys get this embarrassing and irritating...thing?

First of all, this thing is a fungus, yuck. It's not gender specific, it just wants a place to grow. Hence, why you are reading this now. Squashing the myth that a yeast infection is something that only women can get will help in stopping the spread of yeast infections. Education is something that both men and women can benefit from and pass on, instead of this infection.

A common cause of yeast infection in men is due to unprotected sex with their partner who already has an active case of it. But don't be slapping on any kind of rubber and think you're safe from it. Condoms with nonoxynol-9, can cause the penis more likely to grow yeast. The chemical that I mentioned is used to help out the user, by killing germs and bacteria. Some of those bacterias that are killed off help fight off the yeast infection fungus in the first place. So when those bacterias disappear due to the chemical in the condom, it enables more opportunity for the fungus to thrive. Easy fix, before you buy your condoms, inspect the packaging to see if that specific chemical is used before you buy them.

There are a couple factors that can increase your risk for growing Candida, the yeast that causes this infection. Poor dieting, health conditions that weaken your immune system, and even some antibiotics. Learning what you can do in your everyday life to change your risk to getting a this infection is only the start of prevention. Ask your doctor if any medications that you are on or anything in your daily routine is contributing to your risk of a yeast infection.

Keeping in mind these helpful tips will decrease your chances as a male of getting a yeast infection from your sex partner.
