Oral Transfered Vag-Yeast Infection

My girlfriend and I recently have come together after a few years of distance online. She's still a virgin at this time, and very shy so I'm here in her stead. I'm pretty sure I have given her a yeast infection through oral sex and were treating it. After some research I see it's fairly common and was wondering what I can do to prevent her from getting the infections?

If it was our first sexual act and she got an infection right away I'm concerned this will be a redundant situation. I feel horrible as it is, makes me feel like I'm dirty? If that makes sense. Other than the obvious up keep in oral health with brushing teeth and using mouth wash, what can I do? Also.. I have a goatee that is rather long, could this bring additional problems? What are the best steps to keep her healthy?

Thanks for your time and understanding.

but also remember vaginal is just a numbing agent and monastat is a medicine you can just rub a little monastat and it will do world better then vaginal that is only if your itching because women do all the time but it cures nothing. always have a tube of monastat around.

ok your not dirty and it could be a reaction to new bact. heres the thing if it isnt inside then it isnt bad. also goat tees can rub and just like beard burn may be as simple as that and im guessing because first time and all she shaved good so that in its self will cause that. now on treating this heres the deal theres vaginal it doesnt treat and monastate .. misspelled haha does. they are diff one is just a numbing and the other is medication wise. this is common and if it just the outside and not lets call it inside then that can come from all kinda things. even drinking too much coke and concentrated urine can do that. being a women is hard. if she not got a discharge then just rub some on the lips and around. also trip anti can help. i dont think it from anything dirty i say it beard rash and can happen anytime. may be your aftershave even. still heres some wonderful advice for the future when you do have sex. no matter if you use condoms or not after any sexual act she needs to go pee. even if she got to drink a glass of water. a women urethra is an inch long a mans is almost two weeks. so any thing can give a women a uti men very rarely get them. so always go to the bathroom after and wash up good after even with just oral. still she be ok but if she not itching inside dont treat inside. last but not least and this is dirty lol urine has acid in it that kill bacteria. such as if you get athletes foot you can pee on it and it cure it. so gross or not pee after anything touches you down there. honestly pee is a amazing cure. mouth full of germs everyones is pee full of cure. to keep down any infection i would pee wash then pee again and you both be a lot healthier for it. urian is a neutralizer for all kinda things takes jelly fish poison out you wouldnt believe what it can do. gross yes helpful omg yes :)

By the way, I'm not a drinker.. nor a smoker. And merely 30 minutes before being together I had showered and brushed my teeth and used mouth wash. Which is making me feel it has to do with my facial hair and some of the soaps I use.. or my cologne?

Thank you for your reply! I was wrong about the infection, she's not treating herself for that. See, the only symptoms she has is extreme itching on and around the hood so she's treating that with vagisil. The itching started directly.. apparently minutes after we were together, nothing else happen other than oral. Do you think we need to pick up one of the testing kits and see if it is a yeast infection?

Hey. Dont be worried. You are not dirty! Honestly if she was or is a virgin than her vagina is very "pure" (i dont know if thats the right word lol). but its untouched and hasnt dealt with a lot of bacteria before. So she could just be reacting to new bacteria, etc... coming into contact. I would only treat it for a yeast infection if you KNOW its a yeast infection. They have tests at the store. As far as you keeping her healthy i think you just should keep trying sexual activities after her problem clears up and see what happens. She could not have a reaction again and you guys could be totally fine. I would wait it out, if it happens again be sure to go to the doctor and see what they have to say. Dont worry!  Ive had yeast infections from having sex with my boyfriend. They just happen! Most women have had one in her life. Hope your mind is eased a little bit.
P.S i was told beer can be a contribute to yeast infections so if you or her drink beer often then that could have something to do with it.
