What is Vaginal Yeast Infection?
They itch and make people feel uneasy, and no one wants to talk about them. Women, on the other hand, are prone to vaginal yeast infections. It's believed that 75% of women will get a yeast infection at some point in their lives.
Yeast infections can affect anyone at any moment, but there are some factors that make them more prevalent. The majority of infections are simple to treat.
A healthy balance of bacteria and yeast exists in the vaginal canal. The hormone estrogen promotes the growth of lactobacilli bacteria. These bacteria keep you healthy by killing dangerous germs in the vaginal area. However, if something upsets the equilibrium, a fungus called candida can overgrow and produce a yeast infection.
Causes of Vaginal Yeast Infection
You can have a yeast infection for a variety of causes, including:
- Hormones: Changes during pregnancy, breast-feeding or menopause (or if you’re taking birth control pills) can change the balance in your vagina.
- Diabetes: If your diabetes isn't well-controlled, an increase in sugar in your vaginal mucous membranes (wet linings) might provide a breeding ground for yeast.
- Antibiotics: Antibiotics can kill a lot of the healthy bacteria in your vaginal area.
- The use of vaginal douches and vaginal sprays can alter the balance in your vagina.
- A weakened immune system: If you are HIV-positive or have another immune system issue, the yeast may spread uncontrollably..
- Despite the fact that a yeast infection is not a sexually transmitted infection, it can be carried from one person to another through sexual contact.
