Yes. If you can transfer it to him, he can do the same to you.

Candida yeast is present in the mouth anyway; he does not even need to get it from you to develop it on his own.

It is often already present in the vagina and mouth of females; it can become an infection for many reasons, one of which is poor hygiene practices by either person, and can be transferred constantly between them.

We dated for nearly two years and I never got it but once he moved in two months later I had it. :) If they don't understand what causes it to be triggered at all they shouldnt go stating that it's not contagious. It most certainly is. Maybe it's just rarely contagious.


Can you pass yeast infection to your partner?

Candida is a species of yeast that is part of the normal flora on the skin and in the vagina of a human. What we call a "yeast infection" isn't a condition in which a person "catches" yeast, but is an imbalance or overgrowth of yeast. Candida causes diaper rash, intertrigo, vaginitis, oral thrush, and balanitis. None of these are considered "infectious diseases" that one catches from another human.

Can you get a yeast infection while on the patch?

You can get a yeast infection at any time. Hormone contraceptives make it more likely. Wear cotton panties and don't wear tight pants or nylon pantyhose. Always wipe yourself from front to back after using the bathroom, wash with a very mild soap and don't douche. Try eating 'live' yogurt because that will put back the natural bacteria that helps stop the yeasts. If you know it is a yeast infection ask your pharmacy what they recommend, and make sure your partner uses cream as well or he will just give it back to you.


Is it related if you have a yeast infection and unexplained scratches on your back?

Yeast infections are vaginal. Scratches on your back have absolutely nothing to do with it. No, yeast infections do not spread, they are from an internal fungus. The unexplained scratches on your back have to be coming from something external. Is your skin sensitive to a new material from your clothing. Have you been itching your back and not realizing that you are scratching it with your nails. Do you have a cat, maybe while you are sleeping they are getting on your back and getting comfortable. Just a few feasible scenarios. Good luck.
