Answers:
No. Antibiotics are not used at all for yeast infections, because they are not caused by bacteria. They are like a fungus. Anti-fungals are used for yeast infections.

BTW, antibiotics can actually cause you to have a yeast infections because your body needs the good bacteria in your vagina to keep the yeast from growing.

That's oversimplified, but basically what happens.Health Question & Answer

In general antibiotics are not prescribed to treat a yeast infection, so you probably don't want to take them, as it can make your condition worse. You need to get an otc medication from your drug store, like Monistat to cure your yeast and your doctor can prescribe diflucan, a pill to help.
