1. What causes yeast infections in certain areas (vaginal, penile, mouth, skin)
Poor hygiene or skin to skin contact with parts containing the infection, such as having condomless intercourse with a woman having vaginal yeast infection.
2. What other conditions can look like yeast infections?
Genital warts, herpes, and trichomoniasis. The skin may also react to soap or sanitary and hygiene products, showing similar symptoms.
3. When should you see a doctor about a yeast infection?
I recommend consulting your doctor if the symptoms do not go away with self-care practice. Suppose it is your first infection or have symptoms during pregnancy, a doctor’s advise is necessary. Furthermore, people with recurrent symptoms, around four or more in one year should seek a specialist’s attention.
