Can Vitamin Supplements with Yeast Contribute to or Aggravate a Yeast Infection?

Hi: I'm hoping someone can help me out. Several months ago I began buying my vitamin supplements from Sams Warehouse since they are so much cheaper. Shortly after I began experiencing recurrent bouts with yeast infections despite having only had infections in the past while on oral contraceptives. Today I noticed that the B Supplements (B-6 and B-12) I bought from Sams all have yeast in the formulations. I checked out the same vitamin supplements I purchased from my health food store and none of these have added yeast. Obviously I will go back to the non-yeast containing formulations but I was wondering if the "added" yeast could be sufficient to cause and/or aggravate a yeast infection? It would surely explain the misery I've suffered over the past few months! Incidentally I also noticed some of the Sam's supplements contain nice things like titanium dioxide, the main ingredient in my sunscreen. UGH! Thanks for any advice.
