What Causes Recurring Vaginal Yeast Infection Upon Having Intercourse?

I have a had a recurrent yeast infection lately each time I have been intimate with my husband. I have never had a yeast infection within my 47 years of life so I am very concerned about what is going on. Although we are separated I know that I have not been with anyone else and he says that he has not and I am believing him. So if multiple partners are not the case what else could it be?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, yeast infection may not be due to coitus it is not the disease of STD but it can be likely with poor hygiene, and with other sources, if the it is being suspected due to intercourse then both the partner have to take the shot of the dose to eradicates the infection, although it is very common in females, hygiene have to be taken great care hope this information helps.
