"Can you spread yeast infection to your partner without sexually protection?" This is a question that most couples will ask when either one is having yeast infection. Many people have the impression that only women will get yeast infection but the fact is regardless of sexes, age and health, everybody can have the risk getting it. If you or your partner is having the yeast symptoms, it is important to be treated immediately as there is a possibility of spreading the infection through unprotected sexual intercourse.
If you are a female facing symptoms like vaginal itch, painful and burning sensation during urination or sexual intercourse, cottage cheese like discharge with odourless smell and vulva redness, you are quite likely to be faced with the attack of candida fungus.
If you are a male facing symptoms like blisters along with itching, burning and redness at the tip of penis and sometimes certain guys do get clumpy white discharge, it could be a sign of having penile yeast infection.
Though a condom can reduce the risk of transferring the infection, but additional rubbing to the vaginal or penile area can cause irritation and pain. It is advisable to refrain from all sexual contact until all the signs and symptoms of the infection are gone. Some just did it without the protection with their partner and ended up having the infection passed to and fro constantly, this problem will then become a recurring issue and sometimes the second or third attack might be worse than the previous. The yeast microbe is most active in conditions of warmth and moisture, hot weather favors the occurrence of having yeast infection so make sure you do not wear tight fitting clothes or any heat trapping material clothes. Some particular food like refined cabohydrates, high sugar level food, dairy products and beer can worsen your yeast infection.
In order to have pleasurable sexual activity, do not wait to cure the yeast infection, thinking that the symptoms will go away on its own. The fact is there will be more problem if you drag your treatment longer and sometimes the infection might turn chronic if treatment is not given.
The best way to get rid of yeast infection completely is to treat the root cause rather than just relieving the symptoms. One of the most proven and effective ways that people are using now is to go for Natural Home Remedies.
