Question 1

is it true ghonera and chlamydia can cause yeast infections? if so, how?

Accepted Answer

Not  true: Gonorrhea, chlamydia, and yeast are three different kinds of infection.  Neither of them causes the others. The only possible connection is that, if you are given antibiotics for gonorrhea or chlamydia, antibiotics can often cause a yeast infection.

Question 2

afraid i have yeast infection from zithromax for chlamydia.  can 2 grams cause a male yeast infection or is my problem not from the antibiotics?

Accepted Answer

Not likely yeast: Uncircumcised men can occasionally get yeast infections under the foreskin, but if your symptoms are in the urinary passage they probably aren't yeast. The 2 gram zithromax dose is sometimes not effective for gonorrhea and won't treat trichomonas at all. If you have a rash or external itching you may also be reacting to cleansers or chemicals you're using. I would suggest you see your doctor.

Question 3

is it unusual to have chlamydia with a yeast infection?

Accepted Answer

Yeast: No it is not common, unless your partner is cheating.  But you need a chlamydia test to rule out chlamydia.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

YesYouCanGetYeastInf: After being treated with Antibiotics for Chlamydia you dont have any symptoms.But it is possible to get Yeast Infection from the Antibiotic use.

Chlamydia: Probably more like a UTI since it presents usually  presents as a urethritis.  Untreated, many complications could manifest.

Question 6

i have a a discharge/symptoms that mimic a yeast infection but i have taken a diflucan (fluconazole) with no relief. could it be chlamydia instead?

Accepted Answer

Yes: If the Diflucan (fluconazole) didn't work, then the diagnosis could be wrong. If you haven't seen a doctor for exam and/or testing, you deserve to do that for yourself and get the correct diagnosis and treatment. Don't keep guessing what you have - find out for sure!

Question 9

can a constant vulval/anal itch be herpes? has been going on for several months and is not a yeast infection/chlamydia/gonorrhoea

Accepted Answer

Needs to be seen: You need to have a GYN MD examine  this area to determine the answer to your question. Anal itching is caused by many things including infection, hemorrhoids, fissures, etc.

Question 10
