Although HIV would not normally be the first thing to be looking to in order to explain tonsillitis, tonsillitis (or symptoms similar to tonsillitis) can be a symptom of either seroconversion illness (the mild flu-like illness that some people suffer when their immune system starts producing HIV antibodies), or a sign of advanced HIV infection weakening the immune system. Tonsillitis is however a fairly common type of infection, so even if you think you have acquired it through intimate contact, the likelihood is that it will be some other sort of infection (or even an STD). If you are in any doubt you really should seek medical advice.

The yeast infection cause HIV?
Yeast infections do not cause HIV. At least not by themselves. They may however make you more susceptible to it if exposed; but you would still need to actually be exposed to the HIV to get the HIV; the yeast infection would not be the cause of it. When your body is exposed to HIV it might not enter the bloodstream, it may get washed away. With a yeast infection that has open sores, these open sores are extra areas where the HIV could more easily enter the body. Also note that once you have HIV; if your immune system begins to shut down you would become more susceptible to yeast infections because your body would have a harder time fighting them. So HIV can lead to more yeast infections and yeast infections can help facilitate the exposure of HIV; but neither directly causes the other.
