HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES FOR VAGINAL CANDIDIASIS INFECTION
A vaginal candidiasis infection is a fungal infection that causes
irritation, discharge and intense itchiness of the vagina and the vulva — the
tissues at the vaginal opening. It's a type of vaginitis, or inflammation of
the vagina.
Vaginal
candidiasis infection affects up to 3
out of 4 women at some point in their lifetimes. Many women experience at least
two episodes.
Although
a vaginal yeast infection isn't considered a sexually transmitted infection,
you can spread the fungus through mouth to genital contact. Medications can
effectively treat vaginal yeast infections. If you have recurrent yeast
infections — four or more within a year — you may need a longer treatment
course and a maintenance plan.
Causes-The fungus candida causes
a vaginal yeast infection. Your vagina naturally contains a balanced mix of
yeast, including candida, and bacteria. Lactobacillus bacteria produce acid,
which prevents yeast overgrowth. That balance can be disrupted and lead to a
yeast infection. Too much yeast in your vagina causes vaginal itching, burning
and other classic signs and symptoms of a yeast infection.
Overgrowth of yeast can result from:--Antibiotic use, which decreases
lactobacillus bacteria in your vagina and changes the pH of your vagina-Pregnancy-Uncontrolled
diabetes--Impaired immune system--Taking oral contraceptives or hormone
therapy, which increases estrogen levels
Candida albicans is the most common type of fungus to cause yeast
infections. Sometimes, other types of candida fungus are to blame. Common
treatments usually cure a Candida albicans infection. Yeast infections caused
by other types of candida fungus can be more difficult to treat, and need more
aggressive therapies.
A yeast infection might happen after certain sexual activities,
especially oral-genital sexual contact. However, a yeast infection isn't
considered a sexually transmitted infection. Even women who aren't sexually
active can develop yeast infections.
Symptoms--Yeast
infection symptoms can range from mild to moderate and include:--Itching and
irritation in the vagina and the tissues at the vaginal opening (vulva)--A
burning sensation, especially during intercourse or while urinating--Redness
and swelling of the vulva--Vaginal pain and soreness- Vaginal rash-Watery
vaginal discharge--Thick, white, odor-free vaginal discharge with a cottage
cheese appearance
