Do you think that yeast infection is a health problem exclusive to the female sex? For that is not at all true. Men and can do suffer from yeast infections, which may be in the form of a penile yeast infection or an oral yeast infection. The condition in men is basically the same as that in women, which is to experience the unchecked growth of the fungus Candida albicans. However, the way that men contract the disease is different.

Possibly the most usual way for a man to receive a penile yeast infection is through sexual transmission. If a man who has unprotected sex with a woman who is carrying a vaginal yeast infection, then he can possibly contract the disease from her--although it is not a common occurrence. Signs that a man may have contracted a penile yeast infection include redness or itchiness of the penis, or discomfort during urination or sexual intercourse.

A yeast infection can thus be considered a type of sexually transmitted disease (STD). It is even possible for a woman to infect her male sexual partner with Candidiasis, be treated and cured for the disease, and then get reinfected after having sex with the man to whom she transmitted the disease. For these reasons, it is important for sexually active couples to avoid vaginal intercourse if one of them has a yeast infection.

A man can also contract a penile yeast infection due to an extensive and prolonged use of antibiotics. It may happen that the prolonged use of antibiotics can kill off the body's population of beneficial bacteria that normally keeps the fungal growth in check, resulting in the development of a yeast infection. This is a less common way for men to contract a yeast infection, however.

Some men tend to be more susceptible to getting a yeast infection than others. This may be due to genetic factors or bodily health conditions. Men who have diabetes, for example, are at greater risk for developing a yeast infection, because such men experience higher levels of sugar in the urine, and that helps to sustain the growth of fungal organisms in the male genital area. Men who are HIV-positive are also at greater risk for contracting a yeast infection.

If you believe yourself to have a penile yeast infection, you and your partner should consult a doctor immediately and both of you would have to be tested. You will both receive treatment and medication. Until the treatment is completed, you and your partner will have to refrain from entering into vaginal intercourse. Using protective measures such as condoms may not help because they could be weakened or damaged by contact with the areas containing the medication.
