If you are experiencing symptoms of a yeast infection or have concerns about your health, do not hesitate to reach out to us.
We provide compassionate and effective care for male yeast infections.
With a team of experienced healthcare professionals, we ensure a thorough diagnosis and personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs.
A male yeast infection, also known as candidiasis or thrush, is caused by an overgrowth of the Candida fungus, most commonly Candida albicans.
Although yeast infections are more frequently associated with women, men can also develop this condition.
In men, the infection often affects the head of the penis, but it can also occur in other areas of the body, including the groin and surrounding skin.
The overgrowth of Candida can lead to discomfort and various symptoms, making it important to address and treat the infection appropriately.
Symptoms typically include itching and irritation in the genital area, particularly on the penis and surrounding skin.
The affected area may become red and swollen, and a thick, white discharge that resembles cottage cheese may be present.
Pain or discomfort can also occur during sexual activity or when urinating, and there may be an unpleasant, yeasty odour.
Additionally, rashes or sores may appear on the skin of the penis or in the groin area.
Several factors can contribute to the development of a yeast infection in men, including:
We provide a range of comprehensive treatment options to effectively address male yeast infections.
This includes antifungal medications, such as prescription creams or oral medications, designed to eliminate the fungal infection.
We also offer lifestyle and hygiene advice, guiding patients on how to maintain proper hygiene and manage risk factors associated with yeast infections.
Additionally, we provide support for managing underlying conditions, such as diabetes, which may contribute to the infection.
Our goal is to ensure a thorough and effective approach to treatment and prevention.
To prevent future infections, consider the following tips:
Use our online booking engine or book your test by giving us a call.
On the online booking engine select the “appointment type” you need.
You will be seen by one of our friendly doctors or trained clinicians.
Take note of all your symptoms, including their onset and any changes you have observed. Additionally, compile a list of all medications, supplements, or creams you are currently using. Wear comfortable clothing for the examination, and come prepared with any questions or concerns you may have about the infection or available treatment options.
The healthcare provider may perform a physical examination, including inspecting the genital area, and they may recommend tests such as a swab of the affected area or a urine test to confirm the presence of yeast infection. Be prepared to discuss these details, along with your medical history, previous infections, and any treatments you have attempted.
Results typically become available within 3 to 5 days. If diagnosed with a yeast infection, the provider might prescribe antifungal medication. Follow the dosage and instructions carefully. Take the prescribed medication exactly as directed, even if symptoms improve before finishing the course.
