" Is it okay to have sex when I have a yeast infection? You&amp;#039;re better off taking a brief hiatus from intercourse if you&amp;#039;ve been struck with this common ailment, according to Rodney Francis, a Santa Monica OB-GYN. &amp;quot;When you have a yeast infection, the vaginal tissues become inflamed,&amp;quot; he explains. &amp;quot;Having sex further increases the irritation and slows down the healing process.&amp;quot; It also puts your guy at risk of catching your infection, then passing it back to you. What&amp;#039;s more, if you&amp;#039;re using an anti-yeast cream instead of oral medication, having sex can remove some of the cream from your vagina, making the meds less effective. To give your bod time to recoup, wait until three days after finishing any treatment before getting busy. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
