How does some one get or recive a yeast infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Homeostasis: Yeast infections can be passed from one partner to another, but most commonly are due to changes in the natural flora of one's vagina. Sometimes environmental changes, dietary changes, exercises changes can cause yeast infections. Most common is use of antibiotics causing a subsequent yeast infection.
