Vaginal yeast infection might not be a matter of concern. However, it is always better to use contraception to avoid any risk.

Hi. Fungal infection can trasmit to partner.so better to use condom. As during fungal infection you may have much of dryness in vagina. So you may feel pain and it may infection aggravates. Do yourself checked or take medicines for it.

I don't think vaginal yeast infection is a great cause of concern , see a gynac. to take a treatment & use barrier contraception for few days to avoid discomfort.
