A member asked:
Can hemorrhoid cream cause uti or yeast infections if the cream travels from the anus to vaginal area?

Maybe: It is theoretically, possible, but with this caveat- poor hygiene must be involved. Females must always wipe after urination from front to back and not the other way to prevent this becoming an issue.
