yeast infection is an unpleasant, but common, condition caused by the fungus Candida albicans. It can occur in both men and women and can be extremely uncomfortable. There are a few easy ways to prevent yeast infection from happening in the first place. 

1 Always use soap and water when cleaning your body. This will help to reduce the amount of bacteria that can cause yeast infection.

2 Avoid using over-the-counter antifungal products unless you are specifically directed to do so by your doctor. These products may contain harsh chemicals that can damage your skin and cause other side effects. Talk to your health care provider before using any topical antifungal product.

3 If you do experience an infection, take steps to treat it as quickly as possible.
