writes: I had a yeast infection last week right before my period. My boyfriend and I used condoms during my period which came right in the middle of treating my yeast infection. I think at one point we took the condom off though.So last night I was looking at his penis and I noticed some dry skin in a few areas and his head was kind of red and looked irritated. Do you think he has a yeast infection? I was freaked out when I saw it. He was asleep and he hasn't mentioned it to me.How do I bring this up and what can we do to treat it??Thanks.

I also recommend having VD tests. It is always better to know for sure that you aren't passing a different type of bateria that needs stronger meds.

I looked it up online and what he has looks like either a yeast infection or herpes. I'm scared of what it could be! Since i just had a yeast infection I'm guessing that's what it is.

It's totally possible that you could have passed on your yeast infection to your boyfriend. Take a trip to your local chemist and get treatment for both of you to be used simultaneously, otherwise you'll just keep passing it back and forth between each other.
