Who can get candiasis?

Unfortunately, yeasts do not discriminate in who they choose to infect. Young, old, female, male, sexually active persons, virgins, anybody can get a yeast infection. While it is true that even those who are not sexually active can get an infection, it is also possible to spread candiasis from one person to another.

It is important while the infection is active that clothes be properly laundered with hot water to kill the yeasts. If possible avoid touching or letting others touch rashes and any discharge that's coming from the yeast infection. Always wash your hands to avoid spreading the yeast infection to others or to other areas of your body.
