Yeast infections can be uncomfortable, inconvenient, and even embarrassing. They can affect almost skin on almost any part of your body, such as the hands, armpits, the mouth, and of course, the vagina.
A yeast infection, or Candidiasis, can be caused by a number of factors. Most causes involve an imbalance in the delicate eco-system of the natural yeasts, bacteria and acidity levels that are present on your skin or in your vagina.
There are some key signs to look for which indicate you might have a yeast infection.
Vaginal discharge: A white, curd-like and odorless discharge may be present inside your vaginal or visible from the outside.
Vaginal dryness: If your vagina is particularly dry, it is possible that a yeast infection is preventing your body’s natural moisturizers and lubricants from keeping it moist, thereby causing excessive dryness.
Painful intercourse: If sexual intercourse has become more painful lately, this could be a sign of a yeast infection.
Itching of the vagina or vulva: A persistent vaginal itch can be the result of dryness, discharge, or a combination of these two other symptoms.
Burning during urination: A burning sensation during urination is a very common symptom of yeast infections.
If you are experiencing one or more of these symptoms, you could have a yeast infection. Check with your doctor if you are not sure, and then take the necessary steps to get it taken care of. There are prescription medicines available for curing yeast infections. However, there are also some excellent natural remedies available. If you go with a natural remedy, be sure you choose something that other people have tried and liked.
