Male Yeast Infection Other than getting skin yeast on his penis, men are at significant risk to develop further health problems from yeast. During sex, the male’s urethra is exposed and vulnerable to a urinary tract infection from an infected female. In some cases yeast can travel up the urethral canal and settle in the prostate, bladder and kidneys but this is pretty rare. Men can get skin yeast on their penis and be completely unaware they are infected. This type of male yeast infection can lie dormant because the outside of the skin is about 77 degrees. But once the penis is in the vaginal canal, it can cause a vaginal yeast infection in the woman.

- In early BXO, there may be non-specific symptoms such as itch, burning sensation during passage of urine, penile discharge and decreased in sensation of the glans penis. As BXO advances in uncircumcised men, it causes thickening and scarring of the foreskin, resulting in a condition called phimosis. Phimosis is the inability to retract the foreskin over the glans penis. As BXO extends to the glans penis, it would lead to disfiguration of the glans.

Steckelberg, M.D. Yes, men can get yeast infections, too, which can lead to a condition known as balanitis — inflammation of the head of the penis. Yeast infections in men are common because the fungus that causes yeast infections (candida) is normally present on skin, especially moist skin. When some contributing factor — such as having sex with a female partner who has a vaginal yeast infection — causes an overgrowth of candida, infection can result.
