A member asked:
Can sex during a yeast infection push the infection further inside the women how dangerous is this ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not dangerous : A yeast infection might make intercourse more uncomfortable for you (burning, itching, swelling) it's not dangerous. If it doesn't bother you, don't worry. If you use vaginal cream, this might also treat your partner if affected. Take care.
