Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Yeast (fungal) infection could be possibly contacted from your partner after having intercourse.
It is not a worrying problem, as you can do the following to overcome it.
1. Wash the area with warm water and mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. After drying, apply Clotrimazole with Betamethazone cream topically.
3. Take Tablet.Levocetrizine once a day to control itching.
4. Wear loose fitting undergarments so as to provide good ventilation.
5. Maintain good genital hygiene. Abstain from sexual activity till the lesions heal completely.
6. Wear condoms for protection against contact of such infections and sexually transmitted illness (STIs) next time when you have intercourse.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
