I'm 39 yrs old and have been involved with a woman for 2 yrs now. Neither of us has had sex with anyone else during this time. About a yr ago we both developed irritation around the pubic area. Mine was at the base of my penis and in the hair in the pubic area. There were tiny red bumps, some of them had white heads on them. My pubic area was irritated and itched somewhat like dry skin sometimes does. Her irritation was in the pubic area as well as her vulva. Same symptoms; redness and irritation/itching. She saw her doctor many times and he said she had yeast infection really bad. After several visits and different treatments it cleared up for both of us and he said everything checked out ok for her. Last week we had sex three different occasions and the day after the last occurrence we both started having the same symptoms as before. Neither of us has and discharge at all. It's just red bumps kind of like razor burn bumps, but some of them have white heads. I have approximately 10 bumps total. I am irritated in the pubic area under the hair and at the base of my penis. The skin appears dry in the pubic area and is scaly in a couple of spots. It seems odd that we have had sex many times since this first occurred without any irritation and then all of a sudden it's back again. That's about as precise as I can get. She has given blood in the past couple of months and didn't get any notification of anything being wrong from the Red Cross. Any ideas on what this may be? Thanks!

Men can be affected by yeast infections, and can carry it back to their partners after she has cleared up.
