How to Get Rid of Male Yeast Infections
February 22nd, 2007 by admin
Penile Yeast Infections
Also known as candidiasis, a yeast infection is a fungal infection that can attack any part of the body that is routinely moist (Learn how to get rid of a fungal infection). Yeast organisms are a natural part of every human's physiological ecosystem, and when something knocks this ecosystem out of balance and allows yeast to grow out of control, you end up with a yeast infection. While vaginal yeast infections are much more common than penile yeast infections, both conditions can be very painful and embarrassing. (For vaginal yeast infection treatments, read how to get rid of yeast infection)
Male Yeast Infection Causes
Sex: As with most fungal infections, this one can be spread by direct physical contact. If you or your partner has a yeast infection, it's best to remain celibate until it has been cured or you can end up passing it back and forth. It can also be spread to your mouth (aka thrush) so just be very careful.Nonoxynol-9: This is a common spermicide found in many contraceptive products. There is evidence that while this spermicide does kill sperm, it rapidly increases the growth of naturally occurring yeasts.
Diabetes: Yeast feeds on sugars; the elevated blood-sugar levels associated with diabetes are candy to yeast.
Antibiotics: As I mentioned earlier, yeasts are a naturally occurring part of the human physiological landscape. They are kept from growing out of control by other organisms that are also naturally occurring. Prolonged use of antibiotics can kill off all of the yeast-balancing organisms leaving lots of room for the yeast to grow.
Male Yeast Infection Symptoms
The symptoms of a male yeast infection can appear very similar to those of genital herpes. If you exhibit any of these symptoms, swallow your pride and go to your doctor. If you do have a yeast infection, the fastest method of getting rid of it is with oral antibiotics, which will require a prescription anyway. The most common set of symptoms includes:- Itchiness, redness, and/or soreness localized at the head of the penis
- Tiny, reddish bumps at the head of the penis
- White, clumpy discharge
Treating Male Yeast Infections
Since most yeast infections are the result of an imbalance in the body's physiology that allows the naturally occurring yeast to grow out of control, the most effective remedies are oral antibiotics which correct the imbalance from the inside-out. The most commonly prescribed medications are Diflucan (fluconazole) and Nizoral (ketaconazole) which attack the yeast directly.
Topical treatments include the application of over the counter vaginal yeast infection creams like Monistat-7 directly to the penis. Due to the internal nature of male yeast infections, these treatments aren't always effective, so if you don't see improvement within the first few days, go see your doctor.

I have a little discoloration half way down to the base of my penis and the area itches and looks raw and irritated. I dont know what happend. The reaction didnt occur until I wore a condom with spermicide in it, I think Im allergic. Does anyone know how I can treat the issue. Its very uncomfortable.
I been diabete for 3 years and been having yeast infection now a lot i dont know what to do i been to doctors pils work but then it comes back is there a pill i can take everyday so i wont get an infection anymore nothing seems to work anymore cant take it anymore
I got rid of mine by putting garlic gel from gel tabs and combining it with lamisil. In three to four days it went away.
I am unsurcumsized and I have a yeast infection on the tip of my penis is there a good safe way to get rid of it?????
If you have a yeast infection, it IS NOT TREATABLE WITH ANTIBIOTICS! Antibiotics may actually be the cause! Yeast infections are fungal, not bacterial. You need an antifungal such as diflucan. Taking more antibiotics will simply make it worse!
So I have type two herpes and the otherday I noticed 15 small red dots nobigger then 1mm 15. I freaked out I was at work.after doing some research I found out I have a male yeast infection sti. Sexually transmitted infection I had remembered my wife was complaining that she had had a yeast infection so I looked it upon my cell red dots,dry skin and dry skin cracks that’s the symptoms I was having so im using monastat doxicycalin its a antibiotic that the military gave me when I was over seas so I guess I’ve had this infection for a few months now and didn’t even know it funny how it works just look thing up u always find answers good luck too everyone
#1 dont panic #2 get 2% 3 day clotrimazole cream (OTC) apply 4 times a day. #3 keep penis dry as mutch as possible, air out in the bathroom with a paper plate if you have to at work. After work, wear nothing and nothing to bed. #4 CUT OUT SUGAR, SIMPLE STARCHES, CARBS.ECT. look up yeast infection detox. #5 DONT MASTURBATE OR HAVE SEX. follow these tips and you will be cured in 1 – 2 weeks. I had mine infection for 3 weeks before i took these steps after going to the doctor. The Doc gave me the OCT cream and gave me an STD test. After 5 days of applying and doing the above, I cleared up nicely. Ruined my valentines though, I was really nervous it would not go away. the trick is to apply the cream at first symptom of red, flaky, itchy patches on skin. GOOD LUCK!
If you have yeast infection on your penis, try soaking it in a solution of warm water and salt. This was suggested to me by a male nurse.
I had a yeast infection about 3 years ago in my groin area and the doctor gave me some pills and it went away but then when i walk it hurts where i had the infection it started right after it went away and still hurts now after 3 years does anyone know what i could do to cure this thanks
I don’t know what I got. I think it was Jock Itch and my wife had an yeast infection. I used a Jock Itch Cream and it helped alot but I tried my wifes monistat and it caused me to have a reaction that swelled. What can I do to get rid of this because its really annoying and I really want my sex life back…..
