Yeast, or Candida albicans, reside naturally in warm, moist areas like the vagina. When conditions allow (such as when the body's natural pH balance is upset), yeast can begin to multiply and cause an infection. In women, symptoms include genital itching, burning, and a thick, white discharge that typically resembles cottage cheese. \n\nAlthough it is unusual for a man to contract a yeast infection from a woman through intercourse, it is possible. In an infected man, the yeast reside in the urethra, the canal through which urine passes from the body, and can cause penile itching and burning during urination. \n\nA man who gets a yeast infection from his partner can pass it back to her. So even if a woman gets successful treatment, she may soon find herself reinfected if her partner does not receive treatment as well. This is something to consider, especially if infections seem to recur often. \n\nAbstaining from sex during a yeast infection is the only sure way to prevent transmission back and forth between partners. Besides, intercourse can worsen the inflammation caused by the infection, and you may feel too sore or uncomfortable to have sex anyway. It's also recommended that you avoid performing oral sex on a partner -- male or female -- who has an infection to avoid the possibility of contracting yeast orally. \n\nAntifungal medicines, including over-the-counter topical creams and oral medications available by prescription, are used to treat yeast infections. To minimize the risk of future infections, pay special attention to genital hygiene, washing the area frequently, especially before and after sex. Wear all-cotton underwear and make sure laundry detergent is rinsed out thoroughly after washing. \n\nIf you have several yeast infections within a year, or if they don't seem to respond to over-the-counter treatments, be sure to tell your doctor, so that more serious problems or other types of infections can be ruled out.

Get her to the doctor! You need to get to the root of the problem rather than putting a band-aid on it, so to speak.

She's in the hospital.  Try talking with the doctors there.\n\nStrange that someone named "Black Widow" is posting this question.  Is it for real?

First, see a doctor.  Second, if she truly loves you, she won't go.  I am in same situation with my fiance and I wouldn't leave him for anything.

Oh No :( ..\nI would definetly call at least her doctor, and see what  he suggests. If he knows her wishes are to die at home,and not in a Hospital, at least he may be able to give you some suggestions. That is just terrible, and I am very sorry for you and your family. She must be a very special woman to have lived so long! My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

It sounds like you need to get her to a doctor, if she isn't already seeing one.  If she won't listen to you, get the help of an older relative that she trusts.

lack of food, water, or some nutrient is the most likely cause. she needs to go to the doctor to get checked out.

I am a guy, too, but this is such a doctor thing... look at all these other women who have tried to help you with safer passage through what appears to be a very uncomfortable thing... when you have had a chance to try some of their suggestions, please do remember your doctor may have some really cool answers, as well. If not your doctor, then consult with a close friend you trust the most, either for answers, or for referral to someone who can nail this one for you. I am sending this to you more because I want you to know there is someone in South Portland, Maine, U.S.A. who really gives a damn about this issue you are experiencing, and who hopes that by this evening, you will have either come by or acquired an answer that will really work for you. You shouldn't have to endure another hour of this kind of chaffing and discomfort. God Bless You, don't give up, keep looking for the right answer, and Good Luck to you!  - Chris in South Portland, Maine, U.S.A.  (I am 63 years old.)

She is on the exact medication she should be on.  It does cause nausea, but don't stop the medication.  They usually give this medication at the most in three or four pills.  Please urge her to tell her partner because men pass this on the women, and vice versa. Men usually don't have symptoms from it. My husband kept giving me this and he had to take Flagyl too.  When we divorced, I never got another infection.  I had what was called Trichomonas.  Stay on the meds.  I can't stress that enough.  If she doesn't, she will not be cured from this infection.
