What is a vaginal yeast infection?
A vaginal yeast infection, also called candidiasis or a vaginal thrush, is caused by excessive growth of Candida in the vagina. Candida is a type of yeast which is normally present in the vagina in small numbers.
It is important to note that candidiasis is very common. Approximately 20% of women get an infection yearly. And about 75% of will have at least one infection in their lifetime.
Lastly, this east infection can be diagnosed by testing a sample of the vaginal discharge
Risk factors:
The usage of antibiotics, pregnancy, diabetes, HIV, a high carb diet and poor personal hygiene.
Symptoms:
Irritation, itching, burning sensation while peeing, a thick white vaginal discharge without smell, pain during sex and redness around the vagina. Symptoms often get worse during your periods.
Lifestyle interventions:
People often suggest to wear cotton underwear and loose fitting clothing. The idea here is that synthetic underwear as well as thigh clothing make you more sweaty, which enables the yeast to grow faster.
Don’t use a vaginal douch or scented hygiene products for your genitals. These can irritate your skin, increasing your risk for an yeast infection.
Get a medical examination
Now if you do experience any of the previously mentioned symptoms it would be wise to visit your doctor and get yourself checkout. So you know there is no other infection going on.
Antifungal drugs:
Once you know you are indeed dealing with a vaginal yeast infection it can be treated with antifungal drugs. In most countries these can be bought without prescription. Antifungal medicines come in the form of creams, tablets, ointments, or suppositories that you insert into your vagina.
Next up, it is important to note that if you get more than four vaginal yeast infections a year, or if your yeast infection doesn't go away after using over-the-counter treatment, you may need to contact your doctor, who might prescribe a regular doses of antifungal medicine for up to six months.
Probiotics:
Lastly, there is little medical evidence for the use of probiotics in the treatment of a vaginal yeast infection.
