Had Unprotected Sex. Have Yeast Infection. Side Effects Of Long-term Usage?

Hello
I am in a relationship and had unprotected sex with my partner only to later realize that she has yeast infection. One day after the intercourse I also developed the yeast infection on my penis and currently undergoing treatment. Could these have a long time effect? Secondly, she is using the over counter vaginal tablet and has started to experience her periods, should she continue with the medication?

Hi there ~

I understand your concerns. It seems like you were involved in high risk sexual activity and that you had unprotected sex and later on went on to have a yeast infection. I believe that you need to maintain good sexual and genital hygiene and that you will need to consult a sexologist or a qualified doctor who can help take a good history and do a physical examination before you can get treatment for the infection. I hope this helps.

Take care and have a lovely day!
