Yeast infection: A yeast infection can be passed back and forth by sexual partners and both partners should be treated with antiyeast cream before resuming intercourse. These yeast infections don't involve the urinary bladder usually and,if there is a true bladder infection of the female,it has to be treated with antibacterial medications as well. Discuss this with your physician to see if he/she agrees.
