You have a lot going on! I'm sorry about the yeast infection...that is one of those conditions that are usually easily-treatable, but miserable as you are going through it.

You do need to use an over-the-counter medication for your yeast infection, and follow the directions exactly. If this medicine does not work, you would need to see your doctor, to make sure you do have a yeast infection (other vaginal infections can mimic the same symptoms). If this is your first yeast infection ever, it is recommended that you call your gynecologist first. Please know that the longer your yeast infection is left untreated, the more difficult it can be to treat it.

If the last time you had sex was in May, and you just took a pregnancy test in July and it was negative...you can trust in these test results that you are not pregnant, especially since you used a condom. The symptoms you are experiencing are most likely an upcoming period.

A yeast infection would not have an effect on home pregnancy test results.

Does this answer all of your questions?
