Question 4

Not likely: If your guy has a yeast infection in his mouth, he might transfer it to you.  But you probably have good natural immunity and defense so even if he is infected, it would be uncommon.

Accepted Answer

: Yeast infection in a guy is typically external, on the skin it is called ringworm or under the skin fold it is called intertrigo. Occasionally it can happen in the mouth which is called thrush.
