What is a yeast infection in vagina?!
Question: Hi,
I am a doctor..
You seem to talk about vaginal candidiasis..
Candidiasis, also known as a "yeast infection" or VVC(vulvovaginal candidiasis), is a common fungal infection that occurs when there is overgrowth of the fungus called Candida. Candida is always present in the body in small amounts. However, when an imbalance occurs, such as when the normal acidity of the vagina changes or when hormonal balance changes, Candida can multiply. When that happens, symptoms of candidiasis appear.
the symptoms include-
Vaginitis
Vaginal skin flakes - white flakes
Vaginal itching
Vaginal burning
Vaginal irritation
Causes of Vaginal candidiasis include-
Immune suppression
AIDS
Diabetes
Thyroid disorders
Pregnancy

Something easily cleared up by a trip to a doctor, women's health clinic or gynaecologist. They're pretty common and doctors see them every day.
Usually they prescribe a combination oral and external medicine and cream to combat the actual yeast infection and relieve irritation and itching.
Its the worst! It makes you itch really bad....I had one and I almost went crazy...overgrowth of bacteria that causes vaginal irritation or. All healthy women have a certain kind of yeast in their vaginas, but sometimes it grows too much. Symptoms of a yeast infection include a thick, white, odorless vaginal discharge and itching, irritation, and redness of the vulva and the opening of the vagina. So if you have it you can go to a drug store and get something for it...If your not sure what it is go to your GYN asap!
an over abundance of the yeast cadidia. Its kinda like a bacterial infection, except yeast is not a bacteria its a fungus. It itches and there is usually a milky cottage cheese like discharge accompanied by a yeast like or bread like smell. Over the counter intra vaginal ointments like monistat are a usually a good starting place for riding yourself of this ailment. If this does not work than it's time for a trip to the doctor to see what else can be done. GOOD LUCK!
Vaginal infections is a thick milkish,itchy discharge, sometimes it is caused by wearing too tight clothes and damp underwears. My advice always wear cooton underwear.
You would know it. Very much uneasiness, smell, drying and itch are some of the common symptoms
