What Is a Male Yeast Infection?
9. How Is a Male Yeast Infection Treated?
If left alone, a male yeast infection may eventually go away on its own. On the flipside, it may become more severe without treatment and lead to other complications. It’s generally best to seek treatment for yeast infection symptoms while they are still somewhat mild. In many cases, topical antifungal creams and ointments can clear up infections in a matter of days. Many are available over the counter, though some require a prescription.
In cases of serious infections, doctors may prescribe hydrocortisone cream and prescription oral fluconazole. It’s important to take these products as directed for best results.
