I was tested in December 2025. All was negative. 

I had a couple yeast infections on my penis in October 2025 (2 months before my last test) and again in February. Urologist thought it was balanitis. 

1) Should I be tested again? 

2) are yeast infections an early sign of HIV? 

3) what are the chances she has it and can still transmit it to me? If she even has anything 

You describe an obviously very low risk sexual partnership in regard to HIV. Genital yeast infections and balanitis don't suggest HIV or STI risk.

1) I see no reason for another HIV test. However, since it's on your mind, why don't you discuss it with your partner -- it sounds like you're in a committed and caring relationship and probably she would be happy to be tested for HIV and common STIs to help assuage any concern you may have. It's very common for couples in your situation to be tested together -- so even though you don't really need testing yourself, it might be good for the relationship for you both to be tested together. Sometimes it can be a bonding experience.

2,3) Vaginal yeast infections in women may be more common in women with advanced HIV, but for the most part the answer is no. Yeast infections are not a significant indicator of HIV infection, and certainly would never be the only manifestation of HIV or other immune deficiency. There is no realistic chance she has HIV.

As for your final comment, this minor detail of your penile anatomy has no effect on risk or likelihood of HIV or other STI.

I hope these comments are helpful. Let me know if anything isn't clear.
