HI,
Yeast infection will not progress into ovarian cancer. However chronic infections especially the HPV infection can increase the chances of cervical cancer. Hence you should consult a gynaecologist and get vaginal swab test and Pap smear done. Proper treatment will help get rid of the infection. Hope this helps.
Take care and good luck.
