Strange discharge

I realize this might be a little grotesque, but please, I need help. Okay, so my DH and I had had sex last weekend and after we did he went to go play a game of rugby with his friends. He didn'y bath before doing so though. After the game the guys ate and my dh came home. I wasn't aware that he still hadn't taken a bath , so we had sex again. The next day we both noticed that we were getting very bad white discharge and that whenever we had sex it would kind of burn. Does anyone know what this might be? Could it be a simple yeast infecttion? if so, would that explin his dischrge as well? Can men get yeast infections? I appreciate all help. Thanks.

Discharge does come with a yeast infection, thats what it sounds like. Men can get yeast infections, but the women can only give it to them because men do not produce yeast in their bodies. When having sex with a yeast infection can really burn and be very sore afterwards. i hope thats some help.

Laura - yes,  men do have yeast infections sometimes!  That's what athlete's foot is.

I think it's VERY possible that with  sex and sweating and then a long time period passing,  he could have yeast on the outside of his penis.  Men get yeast if they wear a bathing suit for a whole weekend,  like on a campout,  he could certainly have it.

If you believe it's a yeast infection,  you should probably treat yourself with  over the counter meds,  and have your husband wash very thoroughly.
