Men Can Get Yeast Infections On Other Parts Of Their Body

Male yeast infections is a widely misunderstood and much overlooked disease today. Recent advances have made it possible to eliminate yeast from the body by treating the cause and not just the symptoms, most with natural treatments without the use of drugs and unwanted side effects.

Most men will go through life never knowing that they have a Candida or fungal infection because it is extremely difficult to detect since men are built different than women. Women will get a vaginal infection and this is the clue that things are amiss in their body. Whereas men will have absolutely no idea they may have a male yeast infection until it creates other problems with their health.

Usually, men are informed by their significant other that she has a yeast infection, so the chances are he has it too. Most doctors will prescribe an anti-fungal and suggest that the man takes it also, otherwise he will give it back to her.

This is very true and worse especially if she has a vaginal infection. During sex, the male’s urethra is exposed and vulnerable to a male yeast infection from an infected female. The yeast can travel up the urethral canal and settle in the prostate gland.

There may be no signs of problems for years but prostate cancer and prostate problems are affecting almost every male at some point in their life. Yeast is used to raise bread in cooking. Isn't it possible that it can swell a prostate gland?

Men who drink beer have been known to have skin yeast on their penis. They are usually totally unaware they have a male yeast infection due to the outside temperature of the skin being about 77 degrees keeping the infection dormant. In some cases, male yeast infections will be noticeable as a penile yeast infection that has dry cracked skin although the infection can occur most anywhere on the skin. When the man has an erection, this skin can crack and be extremely painful.

All the causes of male yeast infection are the same for any other fungus infection including sex. Most often the good bacteria to yeast ratio in your digestive system becomes unbalanced, allowing the yeast fungi to thrive and spread to other parts of the body.

Male and yeast infection in boys most common causes are antibiotics, alcohol, beer, sex, wheat products, corn products, peanuts, barley, and a weakened immune system. Other than the antibiotics, the rest contribute to candida overgrowth by weakening the immune system by killing good bacteria from the over acidity they produce in the intestine.

These common food products are universally contaminated with molds. We all unknowingly eat them thinking they are perfectly safe, but they are not in most cases since they are usually contaminated with molds and fungus. The powerful effect of molds in the body and modern medicine is best illustrated in the following paragraphs.

Think back how many times in your life you went to the doctor for a chest cold, or what ever it may have been, and you were prescribed an antibiotic. You took it, the cold cleared up and you thought everything was ok. What you didn't know is the antibiotic killed your good bacteria, also. Not all of it, since we have in a normal healthy human digestive system about 70 trillion beneficial bacteria, but you killed some allowing the male yeast infection to spread throughout your body. You have a cold beer every now and then, you killed some more. Male yeast infection thrives on beer and helps it grow due to the yeast being used in its production. You eat food unknowingly that contains molds, you killed some more. You eat sugar-laden foods, which feed the infection allowing it to grow and spread. This goes on until the fungus takes a good hold in your digestive system and becomes systemic. Piercing the lining of the intestine and spreading throughout the body. There have been cases of yeast encasing people's hearts and causing it to shut down.

The bottom line is you have let your immune system get worn down by the constant introduction of molds to your body. That is when you begin to experience some of the symptoms.

Here are some of the more common symptoms you may experience with a male yeast infection. Men and boys most commonly experience digestive problems, as well as constipation, bad breath, bloating, indigestion, frequent intestinal gas, frequent diarrhea, very loose stools, sexual dysfunction, irritability and mood swings, fatigue or lack of energy, memory loss, jock itch, dry itchy flaky skin, athlete’s feet, and prostate problems.
