My story. Over the summer I slept with a new partner. Not even 48 hours later I had a red spot/rash on the head of my penis. Tested negative for STD’s. After doing research I’m almost positive it’s a male yeast infection. I read it can show up 12 hours to 5 days. I havent seen anything else where symptoms show up not even 48 hours later. So what Dr would be best? I would obviously like to get it taken care of ASAP, so if the Dr. does say it’s a yeast infection, I’d love to get it taken care of then(if possible) rather than being referred to another Dr. Thanks!
Thanks for the help. I thought I’d see what people have done before so I know what Dr. to contact.

I’ve tried Monistat with some progress but didn’t clear up. I know it doesn’t always work on guys.

And as far as a prego test, I think I’ll pass. I haven’t heard of any guys ever getting pregnant themselves.

I’m well aware of my mistake and I’m sure most people are after they do go through something. I person dislike when people say something like "stop having unprotected sex blah blah blah". I’m sure it doesn’t make the person feel any better about themselves. It’s just reinforcing the fact that they made a mistake. I’m sure there’s a better way to word something like that. I know you probably mean well though.

I got a urinary tract infection for the first time in my life. The same day I found out I asked my husband had he been cheating on me and he told me yes. He also told me the girl he had been with only had oral sex with him and they never had vaginal intercourse. Is it possible for me get this infection if she had oral sex with him and right after he came home and had sex with me?

I first had symptoms of a yeast infection about a week ago, itching and soreness in labia and vaginal area, clear discharge. I treated it with the drug store brand,1-day, over-the-counter yeast infection treatment (tioconazole). The symptoms got better at first, and I no longer have any discharge, but I am now having much more intense soreness and itching of the labia and vaginal opening. I’m very red and swollen down there. Should I treat with another over-the-counter medication (I’ve been reading that the 1 day treatment is not the best)? Is there something that it could be that is not a yeast infection?

I have slightly itching..then again sometime it’s insane.
I had very slight discharge before, since this week it’s been excessive disharge.
White, sometimes transparents, or a little yellow.
Smells a LITTLE fishy.. i don’t know. but definately a smell.

i realized, it could be anything, a bacteria vaginosis.
yeast, or other.
i am 13, and for the moment i can’t go to the doctor until a few days.
My mom will be home from buisness in 4 days.
I’ve told my dad, but he just took me to the pharmacy, and i bought a vagisil itch creme, so i won’t itch.
i didn’t buy and monistat, yeast infection or anti-biotics.. i don’t know what i have.

but i’d like to know what it is i have.
sometimes i think it’s bv.
other times i think its yeast cause there are times the discharge is a little curdy, and not necesscarily fluid.
i heard bv was caused by sexual activity, im a virgin, seems a little wierd.

is it okay for me to eat alot of yohgurt and cranberry juice?
will that make the bv or yeast go away?

Either way can prayer be just as effective as Monistat?

my first time using it. I was wondering how long before the treatment is over? is it a few hours? 8 hours? or does it really take 24 hours.

thanks!

also are there any side effects like if you end up really not having a yeast infection? I do not have health insurance so i cannot go to the doctors for a check up

thanks a gain

*Gross description included, don’t read if you’re squeamish.*

My girlfriend and I are pretty sure that she has a yeast infection. However, she did not tell me this until AFTER we had unprotected sex. That was a few days ago, and now the head of my penis is itchy, and i noticed that it was really red. Also, there is this white…stuff. I don’t really know what it is but it’s there every time i pull back my foreskin.
But it doesn’t burn to urinate. I shower every day (thoroughly) so that white stuff isn’t any residue or anything. These are the only symptoms that I’ve noticed.

Could I have a male yeast infection? How do I get rid of it? If it’s meds I’m kind of screwed cuz I’m broke for the next 2 weeks at least.

How long should you wait before having sex again? I have the 1 day treatment but that doesn’t tell me how long to wait. Any advice??

When a guy fingers you can it give a vaginal infection like a yeast infection?

Please help! I am 20 and live on my own right now with a part time job that dosen’t even cover my bills so I can’t afford to go to the doctor but for the last week Ive had every sign of a urinary tract infection AND a kidney infection. Does anyone have any at home remedy suggestions or things that will at least make me more comfortable so Im not in so much pain? I will appreciate any suggestion

My mother wants me to use Monistat which has a prefilled applicator. The problem is the instructions say not to use it if a doctor didn’t confirm I have this and it’s the first time I’m having the symptoms. I am not sure at all if I have yeast. My mother got them all the time at my age and thinks it’s completely safe to use this. So, what should I do? Trust my mother or the instructions?

*Note: I have not yet been to a gynecologist.
If I do see a doctor about this it’d be in about three weeks or longer… would that be too long? I’m just a bit worried about the long term effects of going either way.

i’ve never had one before but think i may have one now. just today i started to have symptoms and it’s driving me CRAZY. the itching and burning and raw feeling is BEYOND irritating! ANY ADVICE just to get me through until the doctor’s office opens Monday?
it’s not an STD. i am POSITIVE of that!

Can you cure a male yeast infection with otc creams?
can you cure a male yeast infection with otc creams?
like monistat? If a man has a yeast infection can he just put some external cream over his penis for several days and cure it? I don’t KNOW for sure I have it, my girlfriend had one and we had sex without a condom (she’s on the pill). I just found out I could have one and not know it, then we’ll pass it back and forth. can I use some cream from a monistat?
I don’t feel any different, so I’m probably not infected.
Does it make any difference if it’s circumsized? I’m circumsized, so it’s not like I have the foreskin for it to grow in.
