Yeast Infections
What Women & Men Should Know About Them

Lisa S. Lawless, Ph.D., C.E.O.
Holistic Wisdom Founder


Many women get yeast infections and recently we received a reader who wanted to know if female ejaculation is linked to a yeast infection. My response to this is no, there has been no correlation to yeast infections when a woman ejaculates. The only thing that I could think that would in any way contribute is if a woman wore damp panties soaked in female ejaculate for prolonged periods of time... but that is more an issue of hygiene as opposed to female ejaculation.

Despite there not being a correlation, I thought this a good opportunity to review some basic information on yeast infections so that our readers may know more about them, their causes and treatment.

 

What Is A Vaginal Yeast Infection?

Yeast infections are a common cause of irritation of the vagina and vulva (area around the opening to the vagina). About 75 percent of women have a vaginal yeast infection during their lives. A kind of fungus called Candida causes vaginal yeast infections. It is normal to have some yeast in your vagina. Usually yeast is in balance with other organisms. But sometimes the balance is lost, and yeast overgrowth occurs. Hormonal changes can affect the acidity of the vagina and lead to yeast overgrowth. Another common cause of yeast infections is taking antibiotics.

 

Can Men Get Yeast Infections?

Yes, men can get yeast infection of the penis. Yeast organisms are a common cause of infection of the tip of the penis, a condition called balanitis.

You're more likely to get balanitis if you:

~ Are uncircumcised
~ Have diabetes

Signs and symptoms of balanitis due to yeast infection include:

Itching or burning of the tip of the penis or the foreskin

A red rash on the affected areas If you're uncircumcised, you can help prevent balanitis by practicing good hygiene.

Each day, gently pull back (retract) the foreskin on your penis and clean the skin with soap and water. Then dry the skin carefully. You may also apply an antifungal cream periodically to prevent recurrence.

Treatment of balanitis includes:

Cleaning under the foreskin of the penis Applying antifungal creams at least twice a day Men with recurrent balanitis who are uncircumcised or can't retract the foreskin of their penis to clean or treat the area may consider circumcision.

 

What Are The Symptoms Of Vaginal Yeast Infections?

Symptoms of vaginal yeast infections in women may be mild or painful. Symptoms may include: Itching, burning, and irritation of the vagina Itching, redness and irritation of the vulva Painful urination and/or intercourse Abnormal vaginal discharge, usually described as looking like cottage cheese. But discharge may vary in amount and appearance. It typically does not have a bad odor. Symptoms of yeast infections can be similar to symptoms of other kinds of vaginal infections.

 

What Causes Vaginal Yeast Infections?

Conditions that may make yeast infections more likely include: Pregnancy and other causes of hormone changes. Use of oral contraceptives (birth control pills). Diabetes that isn't well controlled. High blood sugar can help yeast to multiply. A weakened immune system. Use of steroid drugs. Use of antibiotics. Antibiotic drugs kill bacteria in the body including the vagina, allowing yeast to multiply and cause an infection.

Other Possible Causes-
Some women get mild yeast infections towards the end of their menstrual periods, possibly in response to the body's hormonal changes. These mild infections sometimes go away without treatment as the menstrual cycle progresses. Pregnant women are also more prone to develop yeast infections. Sometimes hot, humid weather can make it easier for yeast infections to develop. And wearing layers of clothing in the winter that make you too warm indoors can also increase the likelihood of infection.

Sexually Transmitted?
Yeast infections seem to be only rarely passed from one person to another through sexual contact. A male partner of a woman with a yeast infection usually will have no symptoms, but some men may get an itchy rash on the penis.

 

The biggest cause of Candida infections is lowered immunity. This can happen when you get run down from doing too much and not getting enough rest. Or it can happen as a result of illness. Though not usual, repeated yeast infections, especially if they don't clear up with proper treatment, may sometimes be the first sign that a woman is infected with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.

The FDA requires that over-the-counter (OTC) products to treat yeast infections carry the following warning: "If you experience vaginal yeast infections frequently (they recur within a two-month period) or if you have vaginal yeast infections that do not clear up easily with proper treatment, you should see your doctor promptly to determine the cause and receive proper medical care." Repeated yeast infections can also be caused by other, less serious, illnesses or physical and mental stress.

 

How Is A Yeast Infection Diagnosed?

Your health care provider will examine you and use a swab to take a sample from the affected area. A lab test of the sample will show if yeast is the cause of your symptoms. How is a yeast infection treated? Yeast infections are treated with antifungal drugs, such as clotrimazole or miconazole. There are creams and tablets used in the vagina, skin ointments, and pills.

Antifungal drugs usually work well to treat a vaginal yeast infection. But infections that do not respond to treatment are becoming more common. Taking antifungal drugs when they are not needed can help make yeast resistant to the drugs. For this reason, you should not use antifungal drugs unless you are sure that you have a yeast infection.

The Over The Counter (OTC) products for vaginal yeast infections have one of four active ingredients: butoconazole nitrate (Femstat 3), clotrimazole (Gyne-Lotrimin and others), miconazole (Monistat 7 and others), and tioconazole (Vagistat). These drugs are in the same anti-fungal family and work in similar ways to break down the cell wall of the Candida organism until it dissolves.

They should not be used by men or for yeast infections in other areas of the body, such as the mouth or under the fingernails.

If you are sure that you have a yeast infection, you can buy over-the-counter products to treat the infection. Be sure to follow the directions for using the product. If you are not sure whether you have a yeast infection or another type of infection or problem, you should see your health care provider. You should also see your health care provider if you have recurring yeast infections.

How Can You Prevent Yeast Infections?

Yeast (candida) multiplies rapidly in dark and moist environments. As a result, clothing which allows for good body ventilation is recommended. All clothing worn next to the skin should be removed and washed after each wearing. Bathing suits should be changed as soon as possible after swimming.

The genital area should be kept clean and showers are preferable over bathing in bathtubs. Plain unscented soaps should be used for bathing. Frequent douching is to be avoided.

The amount of sugar and milk products consumed should be limited, as well as the amounts of products containing artificial sweeteners. Most sugar and artificial sweeteners encourage the growth of yeast cultures.

Antibiotics should be avoided if yeast infections are a problem. Antibiotics act to destroy various harmful bacteria but also destroy helpful bacteria within the vagina and intestinal tract. A doctor should always be made aware of any problem with yeast infections before writing a prescription for any antibiotic.

While treatment for a yeast infection is underway, sexual intercourse should be avoided. Any other activity which might result in excessive exertion or sweating should be avoided as well, until the condition is relieved.

The Love Handle~

Feel The Control!

 

NEW!                                                                                           $224.99

Great For G-spot & Prostate Stimulation!


Lisa S. Lawless, Ph.D., CEO

Honestly, I think that this is one of the best Pyrex Glass Toys you will see on the market. It is absolutely superior in it's ability to control whether with a partner or solo to access the g-spot or prostate. It is now my personal favorite!

 

The Love Handle is a 7-inch X 1-inch diameter clear solid spiral wrapped Pyrex G-Spot shaft with a clear smooth straight 5-inch X 1-inch handle. The curved shaft is spiral wrapped with a 24-karat gold band that wraps its way around the shaft from the handle to the head. The wrapping is colored buy a real 24-karat gold "fuming" technique that is in the glass itself, it will never fade or wear off and it’s totally safe. The wrapping is bordered by a navy blue pin stripe and adds approx. 1/4-inch to the shaft diameter. The head is clear smooth and is approx. 1/4-inch larger in diameter than the shaft. The handle is clear smooth and solid with a ball end that is approx. 1/4-inch larger in diameter and serves to help you hand from slipping off. This handle fits comfortably in your hand and as we've mentioned it's a very functional piece that works just as well with a partner and is also the perfect "do it yourself" tool.


 

 

 

 

 

 

Sex In Water
The Exaggerated Appeal?

Lisa S. Lawless, Ph.D., C.E.O.
Holistic Wisdom Founder

 

Water is a highly sensual playground. From tubs to Jacuzzis, pools and more there is a great deal of sexual pleasure that can be achieved in the water. However, sexual intercourse that occurs when your genitals are under water is an overrated experience, in my opinion. It is often portrayed as a very sexy fantasy, but the reality is often awkward.

Water Strips Away Natural Lubricants-

Because water washes away a woman's lubrication with any insertion into and withdrawal from her vagina (fingers, penis, toy, etc.). The same applies to the anus and rectum.

Problems With Lubricants-

If you have sex in a shower and choose to use a lubricant, the water based versions are going to easily wash away and the oil based ones can damage condoms and make maneuvering rather slippery. It can also clog Jacuzzi jets and make for a undesirable mess.

Water & Condoms-

If a man maintains his erection the whole time he is wearing a condom, it's unlikely that water would go inside of it. However, if he happens to lax for a moment or two (which is quite common for men), then there is a chance that water could enter it.

 

Other Sexual Play?

The downside to sexual intercourse is clear, but certainly can be of some fun just to try it. Just don't get it in your mind that it will be the ultimate sex as it usually turns into an awkward attempt.

That is not to discourage other forms of sexual play which include rubbing, kissing, fondling, nipple, clitoral and anus stimulation. Of course men can enjoy a nice hand job and if you are feeling adventurous even an interesting blow job (however that has some technical problems that may occur as well... such as breathing!)

The bottom line is that water can be a wonderfully sensual playground, just stay creative and know the realities ahead of time to keep things sensual not awkward.

Enjoy!

 

 


 

 

Movie Reviews
Holistic Wisdom's Inside Scoop
Our Rating
Out Of Four Stars-


The Magdalene Sisters

Based On A True Story-

We rated this movie (now available on video) with four stars for the sheer message that it provides. Providing a real look inside a twisted world, which unfortunately is very real.

The true story reviews the lives of four young Irish
women struggle to maintain their spirits while they endure dehumanizing abuse as inmates of a Magdalene Sisters Asylum. Thousands of Irish women per year were in
custody in workhouses like the Magdalene convent, until these
hellholes were finally closed down in 1996!

Yet no one from the Catholic Church has ever been prosecuted or held accountable for these atrocities. Events depicted in The Magdalene Sisters are completely true. Many of the survivors are still alive to tell their stories, and have already done so in the riveting documentary Love in a Cold Climate, and a special report on CBS’s 60 Minutes, both of which inspired Mr. Mullan to make this film.

The film captures Ireland in the sixties where four women are given into the custody of the Madgalene sisterhood asylum to correct their more or less "sinful" behavior: Crispina and Rose have given birth to a child out of wedlock, Margaret was raped by her cousin and the orphan Bernadette had been repeatedly caught flirting with the boys. All have to work in a laundry under the strict supervision of the nuns, who break their wills through sadistic punishments. Some of the girls ironically were sexually abused by the Catholic Priests that governed the work house. Some of the inmates develop countermeasures, while others perish under the treatment.

Out Of Four Stars-


The Notebook

Starring: Ryan Gosling, Rachel McAdams, et al.
Director: Nick Cassavetes

New Line Cinema presents a film directed by Nick Cassavetes. Written by Jeremy Leven and Jan Sardi. Based on the novel by Nicholas Sparks. Running time: 120 minutes. Rated PG-13 (for some sexuality).

This is wonderful, romantic, bitter sweet movie but not your typical sappy fluff. Here we have a beautiful story about love at its most enduring and indomitable, with some truly wonderful performances.

A bonus to the film was that the author of the book based the inspiration in this novel on his wife's grandparents love for one another, and so it is even more amazing that this story carries a true story behind it.

Regarding Breath Control Article

Dear Lisa,

I have really enjoyed all your newsletters, I particularly enjoyed the Erotic Asphyxiation Breath Control Play: A Dangerous Way To Get Pleasure. Especially having seen it nearly go so wrong with so many players over the last 17 years.

Breast Implant Graduation Gift Article

Hi Lisa...

Thanks again for another informative newsletter. I particularly enjoy articles such as "weird sex laws" and the interesting sex facts, like those in your 19 June 04 newsletter. I'd just like to make a few comments about the breast implant article from the aforementioned newsletter. Have we as a country become so vain that we need to give our teenage daughters implants? Are her young, perky 18 year old breasts not good enough? If not, WHY IS THAT??

Vanity aside, I believe this to be a bad idea. Not only because of the surgical risks you had mentioned, but what about the emotional risks? Although a person is considered an adult at age 18, there's still a lot of growing up to do. It's tough enough to be 18 in an 18 yr old body, never mind being 18 with the body of a 30 year old. Let's arm our daughters for college with nice new 36C breasts... somehow, that seems like it takes the focus off developing the mind, and more focus on the "extracurricular activities" that college has to offer.

I've also heard the excuse of, "well, maybe she'll feel better about herself if her breasts were just a little bigger". If the suit doesn't make the man, then why to breasts make the woman? If you have a daughter who doesn't feel good about herself, there may be a LITTLE more to it then her bra size. Just a hunch here... What happened to the days of Mom and Dad just wanting their daughter to meet a nice man, who loves their daughter for WHO THEY ARE? Not just a "killer body", but an astute mind and a warm personality.

Thanks again for the wonderful articles. Keep them coming! Thanks, also, for allowing your readers to express their opinions.

Peace and love,

Shelley
Springfield, Mass.

 


Good Morning, Lisa!

I found your site some time ago when I was seeking information on female ejaculation. I am currently studying to become qualified as a sex counselor and this has been invaluable.

Thanks

 


Joke Submitted By One Of Our Readers

Spiked Hair

An old man was sitting on a bench at the mall. A young man walked up to the bench and sat down. He had spiked hair in all different colors: Green, Red, Orange,and Blue. The old man just stared and stared. Every time the young man looked, the old man was staring. Finally the young man said sarcastically, "What's the matter old timer. Never done anything wild in your life?" Without batting an eye, the old man replied, "Got drunk once and had sex with a parrot. I thought you might be my son!

 


Dear Lisa,

To begin, let me say that I definitely appreciate the information that your newsletter makes available. There aren't many other people who dedicate themselves so thoroughly to educating people not only about sex, but also about the physical and emotional health issues that go along with it. Knowledge, not the suppression of it, is the greatest tool someone can have when it comes to these matters.

To the point, I'm leaving my boyfriend behind this August when I go off to college, but I really wanted to get him a Fleshlight as a "bon voyage" type of gift. It is not a "break up" present, but it's just to keep him satisfied while I'm away at school. When I come back for holidays or if he comes to visit, we'll definitely be having fun! I want the best for my boy! Keep up the nice work with the web site; it's one of my favorites!
