Thrush Treatment for Women

Thrush is also called a yeast infection is an infection of the vagina and/or vulva including a yeast germ known as candida. In this leaflet, we’ll include thrush symptoms and possible thrush treatments.

Thrush is not described as a sexually transmitted infection, yet irregularly it is transferred on during sex. It is excess growth of the candida yeast which was previously there still hadn’t been causing a difficulty.

The immune system and the naive bacteria that further generally exist on the skin and in the vagina normally prevent Candida spp. from growing. Though, while conditions are good for Candida spp., numbers increase and may attack the vagina and cause thrush symptoms.

This could be due to advances in the bacteria in the vagina if you have taken antibiotics. Instead, it could be associated with hormone changes or challenges with your immune system. Most cases of thrush are a consequence of Candida albicans yet sometimes different types of Candida spp. like Candida glabrata or Candida tropicalis are the reason.
