Could Yeast Infection Be Transmitted During Sex?

Good morning Dr, I have a question that I slept with my girlfriend who got yeast infection, will she infect me?

Answered on 25th July '24

If your partner has a ye­ast infection, you can catch it too, although it's not contagious like the flu. Yeast infe­ctions aren't sexually transmitted dise­ases, but intimate contact can spread the­m. Common signs are itching burning sensations, and strange discharge­. It's wise to abstain from sexual activity until your partner re­ceives medical tre­atment.

I am 22 years old . I have done a unprotected intercourse 3 hours ago. But the sparm not out inside. But for safety should i took emergency pill?

Female | 22

If only the sperm was ejected but did not enter the woman's body and 3 hours had passed since the intercourse, the probability of pregnancy is very low. Emergency contraception can produce negative effects on the body like nausea and headache. If you are concerned, your (best) course of action should be to wait and see if he experiences any symptoms such as irregular bleeding or a heavy period. Using a condom is always a smart idea as it is the only effective way of avoiding such a situation.

When I masturbate, semen does not come out. If I stop it by cupping it with my hand, there is no problem?

Male | 18

This issue is severe because it can lead to complications in the body through the semen being absorbed. It can be a symptom of a condition called semen retention, which may be experienced as weakness, fatigue, and sexual disorders. The treatment for this condition is proper exercise, a balanced diet, and sleep well.

Hey, I want to ask. Yesterday I had sex with a sec worker and the condom slipped but the rim of the condom was outside the vagina when I pulled out. Can I get HIV from such mistake?

Male | 26

When a condom slide­s off during sex, there's a chance­ of HIV transmission if bodily fluids (like semen or blood) made­ contact. HIV spreads via these fluids. Symptoms might not appe­ar immediately but could include fe­ver, tiredness, and a sore­ throat. Getting tested by a doctor is crucial, as is discussing any anxie­ties you have.

Last week of june I met with my gf. We didn't had sex, but did the foreplay thing. For protection I wore condom also with my boxers on. My concern is that two time I changed the condoms after I cum and while changing the condoms, sperm comes in contact with my fingers and after that we did foreplay (fingering in vagina). So how much possibilities that sperm from my fingers will went inside her vagina that will lead to pregnancy as she is on her ovulation period. Her last period started on 14th june, cycle 28 to 30 days. I know now nothing can be done other than, just to wait for period to come. But before consulting you I consulted a sexologist. He told me to to connect to a gynecologist. They will provide you with a better solution. Whether it is practically possible or not. Sperms comes in contact with fingers. After that it comes in contact with other things also like blanket. Than this fingering thing happened. So in such case. Are sperms healthy for fertilisation that can seriously lead to pregnancy. Mentally it is affecting us a lot. First time we are facing this issue don't know what to do. Is it really serious. As no intercourse happened or ejaculation inside her. Concerned about the fingers on sperm. While fingering*

im a 50 years old male...i masturbate 1-2 in a week is it okay as per my age..is it safe for my penis and blood flow?

Male | 50

1-2 times a week is completely acceptable for someone your age. Plus, it is a safe way for your penis and blood flow to travel. Masturbation, as a normal and thus healthy activity, can be seen as such. It can even be a means to release stress and tension. Just be careful not to do it too much, as that might lead to some irritation.

When I do not masturbate for 10-12 days or I watch porn but do not masturbate. So when I go to poo and apply pressure then a little sperm comes out but this only happens when masturbation has not been done for many days and when pressure is applied while pooing then it happens only .

Male | 18

Take a deep breath; this is quite a typical phenomenon and there is no need to freak out. When the sperm does not ejaculate for a while, it may be ejected by the body automatically, even in the lavatory. This is because the old sperm becomes obsolete and your body needs to get rid of them. Don't worry, it's all too normal. Just keep the genitals clean and maybe masturbate from time to time so as not to experience this.

facing premature ejaculation problem as well as problem with erection. I am 36 years old. how to get rid of it. dont have any such other health issues. but from very early age have a addiction to masturbation. what should i do, should i start taking viagra or something else. kindly guide

Male | 36

Certain issues can cause people to finish too quickly and have trouble getting hard. Mental health can play a part in it, such as feeling nervous or being under tension. The problem may also be caused by masturbating too much when you were younger. Instead of taking drugs like Cialis, you should first try to find out what’s really going on through therapy or counseling and then look for ways to deal with your concerns. You must speak openly about this with your doctor so that they can give you the right advice.

I was diagnosed with chlamydia so I did the treatment for a week. When can I resume sexual activity?

Female | 24

After finishing the week-long treatment, it is still necessary to wait 7 days before you have sex again. The purpose of this is to let the antibiotics work properly and make sure the infection is gone. Besides, make sure your partner is also tested and treated if necessary to stop reinfection.

I have masturbate for 5 years every day and now if I’m ejaculating the amount of sperm that comes out is small. What does it mean would it affect me

Male | 23

When you ejaculate only a small amount of semen, especially after masturbating a lot, it’s like running frequently- your body requires time to produce more sperm. This normally is not a big deal. However, if it hurts when you pee or you have trouble urinating at all then go see your doctor immediately. Try cutting back on how often you masturbate so that your body can have some time off.

Me and my boyfriend had intimacy the day before yesterday. We didn't intercourse. It was my first time so we didn't intercourse. I am still a virgin. We just cuddled naked. He ejaculated outside in the bedsheet twice. He tried to finger me but I didn't let him do so. I am still scared of getting pregnant. Is there any chance?

Female | 20

Based on the information you have provided, the probability of pregnancy is almost zero since there was no intercourse and he came outside with ejaculation. Keep in mind that for the pregnancy to occur, the sperm should be in the vagina. If you're feeling nervous, you can always think about using protection in the future

I am 26 ,,,when a girl touches my penis I ejaculate ,,,,only rubbing it for 10 seconds

Male | 26

I think you might have premature ejaculation. This means coming quickly when you’re touched sexually. It’s common and can be because of stress, nervousness, or inexperience. Try to be relaxed about it and talk to your partner.

I masterbate every night my sperm comes out little bit sometimes comes out alots is it normal

Male | 42

Sperm details are normal to diverge. Factors such as the time elapsed since your last ejaculation can determine the rate of sperm loss. If it continues fluctuating a lot or you have other symptoms like pain, burning, or blood, it's best to get checked. Otherwise, if it happens now and then, it is usually not a cause for concern.

Hi Doctor I have a problem with errection and no hardness and I am diabetic too my wife doesn’t feel good and I am going to loose my wife so plz give an answer it could be treated or not thanks.

Male | 58

You face a challe­nge with erection difficultie­s due to diabetes. High blood sugar le­vels harm blood vessels and ne­rves. This reduces blood flow to the­ penis, making erections difficult to achie­ve and maintain. Proper diabete­s management is crucial. Lifestyle­ adjustments such as a nutritious diet and regular e­xercise can significantly improve the­ situation. Medication or therapies may also be­ viable solutions.

Can mastrabtion on bed cause any kind of stis

Male | 29

Masturbation can't give you a sexually transmitted infe­ction (STI). Those come from bacteria or viruse­s shared during sex without protection. If you notice­ sores, liquid coming out, or pain down there, you might have­ an STI. See a doctor then, to ge­t checked and treate­d.
