A 18-year-old male asked:

I am a male and have gotten a yeast infection from unprotected sex. i heard topical use of clotrimazole will help but i have a cream called "clotrimazole and betamethasone dipropionate" and want to know it this will also work?

Things other than yeast can cause the same symptoms. If the diagnosis is certain (professionally diagnosed), this probably will work well. See a doctor if it doesn't clear up after using the cream.
