Are you suffering terribly from male yeast infection symptoms?  Are you tired of the itching and burning? Do you need relief?  In previous articles of this series we have touched the surface of yeast infection symptoms, but in this article we will delve deeper.

What Causes Male Yeast Infection Symptoms?

As stated in previous articles in this series the cause of Male Yeast Infections is the fungus Candida albicans.   You already have this germ on and in your body, but it flourishes in certain situations.

1. Contact (with someone who already has an active yeast infection)

2. Supressed Immnue System

3. Certain Diseases (Diabetes, HIV, others that attack the Immune System)

4. Diet (bad eating habits)

• High Sugar Intake
• Too much Dairy
• Too many grains (high yeast intake)
• High fat content

5. Recreational drug use

Tired of itching?

The common factor in these causes is the suppressed immune response.  Whether long term or short term, these factors can all contribute to male yeast infection symptoms.

The Male Yeast Infection Symptoms

As varied as the root causes of male yeast infection symptoms are, the symptoms themselves are just as numerous, more even. These symptoms will fall into 2 categories:

• Chronic (long term causes)
• Acute (short term causes)

If we look at each group separately it may help to explain the difference between the two.

1. Chronic Male Yeast Infection Symptoms

• Symptoms that occur over the long term
• Not observable directly due to Male Yeast Infection (seen with many other conditions)
• Bad breath
• Constipation or Diarrhea
• Bloating and Gas
• Indigestion
• Irritability
• Fatigue
• Prostate troubles
• Can even have the infection without any symptoms at all

These are symptoms that can be attributed to many other illnesses.  It’s not until we see the more direct results of the infection that we start to suspect the list above as being caused by C. albicans.

2. Acute Male Yeast Infection Symptoms

• More noticeable, immediate symptoms
  

  Yeast Infection Discharge
• Jock Itch
• Athlete’s Foot
• Inflamed or swollen penis tip
• Ulcerations (red, raw spots)
• Flaky skin
• Burning  and Pain
• Itching
• Painful Urination or Sex
• Penile Discharge

These are the symptoms that are more noticeable and much more likely to get you to seek treatment. The conditions listed in the Acute Symptoms list are mostly associated with Genital Yeast Infection.  There a few other Acute Male Yeast Infection Symptoms which are associated with Oral Yeast Infections (Thrush).

• Raised white or yellowish spots on the tongue or mucus membranes
• Thick white coating over the tongue
• Difficulty swallowing
• Diminished sense of taste

Those are some extensive lists, and I would imagine they aren’t even exhaustive.  If you suspect that you are suffering from a Male Yeast Infection it might be a good idea to head to the doctor, as they are the only “for sure” diagnosis you can get.

Male Yeast Infection Symptoms: Diagnosis

Some studies suggest that as many as 1 out of every 3 people with “yeast” infection symptoms diagnose themselves incorrectly.  This is usually not a serious issue, but occasionally a medical condition that gets treated wrongly can end up making your health worse.  A yeast infection is hard to diagnose for sure and, as stated above, the only way to do it is through your doctor.  They will conduct several tests, including:

1. Physical Exam
2. Microscopy (microscope slide of infection)
3. Culture (grow a sample of the infection in Agar)

Only after getting the results of these tests will a physician be able to render a diagnosis of Yeast Infection.  But, once confirmed what should you do?

What can you do to Eliminate Male Yeast Infection Symptoms?

There is a variety of treatment options when it comes to ridding yourself of the male yeast infection symptoms.  They range from preventative to curative.

Diet

• Keep your sugar intake low as yeast feeds on sugar (helps with Diabetics)
• Reduce fat in your diet
• Stay away from grains that have yeast in them
• Drink lots of non-chlorinated water

Medications

• Antifungal meds are what is used to treat yeast infections
• The difference in the medication is mostly prescription strength vs. OTC strength
• Clotrimazole and Miconazole are the most common antifungals
• Antibiotics are occasionally used
• On rare occasions when the infection enters the blood powerful IV Antifungals will be used

Home Remedies

• Probiotics
• Diet
• Grapefruit Seed Extract
• Compresses soaked in buttermilk or yogurt (promotes growth of good bacteria)
• Regulation and abstinence from sex while you or your partner have an infection

These are the most commonly used treatments for Male Yeast Infection Symptoms.  They are not the only ones, but the antifungals are especially effective.
