Yes it can. Perfumed soaps are known to cause yeast infection depending on your sensitivity. It doesn't matter the ingredients in it, as long as its scented it could cause a yeast. You should perhaps try medicated soaps that are less perfumed and see if there will be a difference.

Is it a good idea to use antibacterial soap?
No. Antibacterial soap is not any more effective at ridding your hands and other surfaces of bacteria as "normal" soap. It will, however, help to create "super bacteria" that are resistant to antibiotics.Added: Also, by using antibacterial soap you kill the good bacteria on your skin that help to keep you from infection. Without these bacteria you are liable to get a fungal infection like ringworm. It is good to have a moderate level of bacteria in your environment. They give your immune system something to practice on so it will be ready when something harmful checks in.
