A member asked:

Would it be ok to masturbate(just rubbing no penetration) while taking suppositories for a yeast infection? im using the honeypot kit to treat this infection since antibiotics didnt work?

Specializes in Infectious Disease

Yeast treatment: Masturbation won't be harmful or interfere with treatment. However, the honeypot products do no treat yeast infection. See a doctor to confirm the diagnosis and get on proper treatment. Good luck.
