I got a yeast infection and im doing treatments and it is helping very well. My fiance and i are spending friday together. Im meeting his parents and then to his place for one on one time. Im concerned because i read the back of my box to see if we could make love. It said "do not use spermicides condoms and stuff like that, becuase it will mess em up and i could still get pregnant or contract a disease....but then it said no vaginal intercourse....so im confused. I dont want to mess it up and get a more serious condition. Ryan understands this and is very scared because he thinks its his fault i have it. I love him so much and i dont want this to make him mad when he gets turned on. I WILL give him oral...but i want to do more. What else could we do?

chigirl agony auntHandjobs, unless you're too uncomfortable? Make-out sessions? Touching and playing with other parts of eacho thers bodies, you have breasts, hands, butt cheeks. You can rub up against each other without intercourse, that can be veeery erotic and stimulating.

You can watch movies together naked. I love to do that. He can use toys on you, again unless you're not uncomfortable. When I've had a yeast infection it itches like s%&%¤&, so sex would be the last thing on my mind. But you don't sound like you have that same problem...

The reason it says no sex while you're on treatment is a) you could get pregnant if it messes with certain forms of contraception, and b) you risk infecting him, which in turn will infect you back, which in turn will prevent you from getting well.

Stayc63088 agony auntWell you shouldn't have sex if the medication advises against it, sounds like you are smart enough to not try anyway. Explain to your fiancée Ryan (my husband's name :)) that he did not cause the yeast infection and to not be upset with himself. It's caused by an overgrowth of fungus when too much yeast grows and happens in 75% of women in their lifetime, so it isn't his fault and it's very common for women. Unless it was an STD then it wasn't brought on by him. You say you don't want him to get mad when he gets turned on and that confuses me. He knows you have a yeast infection, does he expect sex anyway and will get mad when you can't? And why would he ever get mad because you can't have sex one night, that's not right. Just explain to him again beforehand that you have a yeast infection and won't be able to have sex on Friday, but would like to still do some stuff for him. As for you, I guess the only thing you can do is have him use his hand on you or a toy to get you off. I wouldn't advise him giving you oral. Luckily it's only temporary and you can go back to sex in no time.

You do not want to go playing with your vagina when you have a yeast infection! You can give him oral, he can stroke you and fondle your nipples but I would not do this if you both have little control - It is important that you do not have sexual intercourse while you have this infection.

Tell him to google it. It's not his fault.
