Hey guys, super sensitive subject. When I was younger I used to rarely but I did experience issues with yeast and or overgrowth of good bacteria when I was very young in elementary years. As I got older it really was not a problem. But, the moment I hit the time of becoming sexually active. Ever since I had sex for the first time with my boyfriend I get frequent re-occurring yeast infections. 1)Is that normal or possible? I looked up things about it and I visited 3 OBGYN in a span of a year and 5/6 months after my first initial sexual acts I got tested for EVERYTHING IN THE BOOKS ($$ -_-) and everything was normal. I can’t even masturbate now either because that caused me a yeast infection and that bring it’s my only form of pleasure seeing how I don’t find sex all too pleasurable. I was diagnosed with endometriosis and was told that could be a factor 2) any ideas or tips or clues I can get from that information? 3)why did something like masturbating cause a yeast infections when it used to not. 

HINT: I have gained a lot of weight over a couple of years about 20-30lbs
