Ehn, yeast infection is not a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Yeast infection is not sexually and you don’t use antibiotics in treating a yeast infection. You do even more harm when you try that. Yeast infections are treated with anti-fungals.
Yeast infection occurs when a fungus known as candida grows out of control. Candida is kept under control by the lactobacilli which are the good flora (probiotics), anything that tilts the balance between the lactobacilli and candida can predispose one to a yeast infection.
