Women, help. I need advice on how to stop getting yeasties. In the past 4 months, I’ve gotten 2. Every time me and my bf have sex, I urinate and I’ve heard that supposed to prevent it. What do I do 😭

That only really prevents UTIs. You need to get your pH balance in check. Maybe you have a latex allergy?

If you wear leggings too much it can cause them or increase the chances of getting them if you’re prone to it. Also if your underwear are synthetic fibers then it holds onto moisture for longer which can be bad. Also if you aren’t clean when touching yourself (hands, mouths, tongues, etc) or if your partner isn’t then that can cause one. Mouths and hands have a lot of bacteria even when you think you’re clean so if there’s oral going on then that can cause one.

Gotcha, pH. Would be interesting if I had a latex allergy since I work with latex gloves all the time 🥲🥲

It can be weird like that! I wear latex gloves to dye my hair and it’s no issue, but latex condoms give me such a bad reaction
