Yeast is a fungus, so it is a fungal infection. If yeast or any organism enters a suitable environment for culture and survival, then it will spread. This can include most typically the vagina or the mouth for another type of fungus. The human body has responses to the cultivation of foreign organisms such as yeast that present as generally unpleasant symptoms. It can be spread sexually or not as many women who abstain from sex are able to get a yeast infection.
