Can you spread a yeast infection (nonsexually)?

Question

Ok so I got a yeast infect and I took one (i forget what it is called) but you just take it once and it is supposed 2 clear it up. So i was wondering if you could spread it to your r****m from like going to the bathroom and wiping because the reason I believe I got the yeast infection was because I was on antibiotics and another result of taking it was diarrhea. So I am wondering if by wiping I could have spread it and will I need to take something else to clear it up if it did spread or will that one pill I already took do?

Answer 1

Public washrooms are very much responsible for a yeast or fungus infections however some yeast infection also caused by soil , unhygenic conditions are also responsible for that, a little bit change in weather is also responsible for it.

Answer 2

Ive never heard of catching a yeast infection - but i could be wrong!

A yeast infection is when you have ALOT protein is your system - thats why they take urine samples to find out.

i know you have taken medication but sometimes some meds work better then others thats why your Dr should have told you that if it doesnt go away go back and see him to try something else or to start the course again - you should normally see how you go in 3-4 days to a week.

Answer 3

I don't believe you can, but I had the same thing happen to me, and my hinder parts were irritated as well. I went to the doc and she gave me this anti fungal cream and it helped.

Just a tip for the future. When you are prescribed an antibiotic, tell your doctor you get yeast infections and to write you a script for diflucan. It is a pill that prevents them. Your doc will not have a problem doing this. Good luck. Been there, done that.
