Yeast infections occur for many reasons, and you may have to experiment to find the cause. If you are finding that you only have a yeast infection after oral sex, it may be some bacteria from around your vulva, your husbands mouth or his fingers are being pushed into your urethra.

You may try to avoid oral sex for a little while, and make sure that your yeast infections do not reoccur; it is important that it is not the same yeast infection "coming back", as you need to have the yeast infection properly diagnosed (specific bacteria) and properly treated (specific antibiotic to treat specific bacteria).

Yeast infections are known as the "honeymoon yeast infection" as women who are newly married (and, have sex frequently) can also have frequent yeast infections. Most yeast infections are caused by bacteria, and once you are diagnosed, treated and your yeast infection is "cured", you can practice some preventative measures:
1. Practice oral sex after a bath/shower, after your husband has a clean mouth and fingers
2. Practice oral sex with your partner being more gentle, and making sure he is not transferring bacteria from your perineum (area between your vagina and anus) to your vagina.

See if these simple changes help. If not, we can provide more suggestions!
