Most men will experience life never knowing that they have a candida infection because it is extremely difficult to detect in men.
This is because the yeast can remain dormant for years in areas like your prostate gland.
Like a ticking time bomb, it will wait there and you may not know about it until it is too late.
Although a man may suspect that he is suffering a yeast infection, his symptoms may be the cause of an entirely different disease - genital herpes.
This STD shares the "red, itchy bumps" symptom of yeast infection, so you need to find out whether you have a yeast infection or not.
The good news is that there is a little known way of finding out without having to see a doctor.
If you are a man who thinks they are suffering from a yeast infection, chances are that you have these common symptoms around the area of your penis:
- Irritation
- small blisters
- thick discharge
Constipation, sour breath, bloating, indigestion, frequent intestinal gas, diarrhea, sexual dysfunction, irratibility and mood swings, fatigue, memory loss, jock itch, flaky skin, athletes foot, and even prostate issues.
You may also crave for sweets, pasta, etc.
because the male yeast infection demands to be fed, and you will more than likely feed it, until you do something about it.
How to test for a yeast infection: The first thing in the morning, spit twice into a glass of water.
If your saliva dissolves, you're fine.
However if your saliva is stringy, cloudy, or settles at the bottom you may have a yeast infection.
Once you find out if you have a candida infection, you know what treatment options are available to you.
