Dr. John Chiu answered

Need to see doctor: If this is related to anal intercourse, then one needs to be sure that the male does not have penile fungal infection. However one needs to consider other factors such as diabetes mellitus or impaired immune status as well. This is something better discussed with your own doctor.

Dr Altman and another doctor agreed
