It is the ladies who usually get the yeast infection. As for treatment of yeast infection, antibiotics are the most common but it will cause drug resistance and can be easily recurrent. Herbal medicine like Fuyan Pill maybe a better option compared with antibiotics, because it is made from Chinese herbs without any side effects and drug resistance.

No. Usually a yeast infection is caused by environmental factors like soaps, douches, laundry detergents, thongs, really tight pants, non-cotton panties, etc. The infection can even be caused by certain oral antibiotics for some people. Normally, the male partner does not need to be treated if the female is diagnosed with a yeast infection.

Uh, maybe out of date but the answer from my doctor 10 years ago was yes! of course! The yeast can be carried for some time by the man, particularly if his personal hygiene is not perfect.

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.
