Hello I'm a 23 year old Male uncut penis and I've noticed that I have a Yeast infection possibly again. Last year I had one so went to the doctor office and got everything checked out Blood sugar, HIV, STD test and my CBC and WBC. I came up all good. Is it possible to have a high sugar spike for about a couple of weeks where yeast growths happens and the sugar levels out afterwards? I don't have any other symptoms of Diabetes and since the last time I've seen the doctor I made a commitment to loose weight about 8 pounds. So any o you can help me understand what's going on I'm pretty darn nervous. I've made a appointment with my doctor tomorrow.
Thank you guys! Doctor told me he knows that I don't have diabetes and he also said that since I'm uncut I could get more yeast infections if I don't I don't keep it clean and dry. Also he was looking at thyroid he said the levels last time they tested looked a little low so he suggested I do another blood test won't know the results till today.

Normal a1c should be < 5.0, anything above 5.0 actually means that your blood sugars are not so normal (though not yet classed as diabetes).
Normal fasting < 95 (though ideally in the low 80s).
Normal 2 hours after eating < 120 (but ideally < 95).
If your levles are even slightly high this could predispose you to yeast infections.
See your dr and get some antifungal cream to address the problem.
If your blood sugars are higher than absolutly normal look into eating a lower carb diet, getting to your optimal weight, and daily exercise.

What test did he run for diabetes?
If an A1c test you can run high BG after eating and below normal other times to average out to a good A1c number
(A1c is a test of how our BG was over the last 3 months, an average)
Get a meter (walmart has them cheep, if in the US) and test 1 hour after eating.
