    I believe you can. I know you can get a yeast-like infection in your mouth. It's called Thrush.

    Hi lozcoz2005:

    I was just wondering why you would even want to perform oral sex on your wife while she had a yeast infection, or you just didn't know. You know, there might be a distinctive smell or something that would be a turn-off. Just wondering.

    Yeah it's called Thrush. It usually starts with extreme dry mouth. Evolves into a gross smelling/tasting of infection. Discharge off your tongue from breathing through the night. It's really gross. Never had it, but I was really close. Happens if you sleep with your mouth open and often get dehydrated.

    Not sure about getting a yeast infection through oral sex. However, every time I take antibiotics I get a yeast infection in my mouth. It's also called thrush. A good home remedy is to swish buttermilk around in your mouth then spit it out. It really works! Good Luck!

    The organism involved is called Candida Albicans
