A member asked:
Could a uti cause a yeast infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not directly: If you are given an antibiotic for the uti, then the medication itself will not only kill the bad bacteria causing the infection but also the good ones. This results in a change in the environment in the vaginal area, allowing for the overgrowth of yeast.
