What Could Cause Recurrent Episodes Of Vaginal Yeast Infection After Iwntercourse?

Hi, I got a yeast infection a little over a month ago, my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex with each other during that time. I got monistat and everything cleared up. My boyfriend and I had sex a couple times with a condom because I was ovulating. A week or so later we had sex again without a condom a couple times and within those two-three days my yeast infection returned. I treated again and again it cleared up within about 5 days. Now, I m hesitant to have sex because I m worried my boyfriend could be carrying yeast and has the potential to reinfect me again. I also don t have health insurance.

Hello dear,welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I reviewed your query and here is advise.
If he has no clear signs of balanitis is hard to say that he is giving it to you.
Anyway he can use antifungal cream.
You also have to pay attention to dry properly your genitals after washing.
Also you can use lactobacilus probiotic capsules to stabilise vaginal ph to help not have reocurance.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
