 Vaginal yeast infections, also known as
candidiasis, are a common female condition. A
healthy vagina has bacteria and some yeast
cells. But when the balance of bacteria and
yeast changes, the yeast cells can multiply.

This may cause any of these if not all;
 intense itching, swelling, and irritation and many more as i had listed them above.
Treating a vaginal yeast infection can relieve
symptoms within a few days. In more severe
cases, it may take up to two weeks when using herbal medication which is the best.
Vaginal yeast infections aren’t considered a
sexually transmitted infection (STI) and usually don't show up in laboratory examinations till at a mature stage which is dangerous to wait for so we usually treat it from the signs and symptoms. Sexual
contact can spread it to men too but women who aren’t sexually active can also get them normally from poor hygiene and using public toilets and dirty toilets. Once you get
a yeast infection, you’re also more likely to get
another one and also HIV aids........ .
 Whitish gray and clumpy vaginal discharge is
another telltale symptom. Some people say this discharge looks like cottage cheese. Sometimes the discharge may also be watery. Usually the length of time your yeast infection is left untreated has a direct impact on how severe your symptoms may become

 What causes vaginal yeast infections?
The fungus Candida is a naturally occurring
microorganism in the vaginal area. Lactobacillus bacteria keeps its growth in check. But if there’s an imbalance in your system, these bacteria won’t work effectively. This leads to an overgrowth of yeast, which causes the symptoms of vaginal yeast infections.

Several factors can cause a yeast infection,
including....
antibiotics (they lower the amount of
lactobacillus, or good bacteria, in the
vagina) pregnancy uncontrolled diabetes weak immune system poor eating habits, including a lot of
sugary foods
hormonal imbalance near your menstrual cycle stress lack of sleep
A specific kind of yeast called Candida albicans
causes most yeast infections. These yeast
infections are easily treatable. If you’re having
recurring yeast infections or problems getting
rid of a yeast infection with conventional
treatment, then a different version of Candida might be the cause that's why your advised to use herbal medicine from a relevant herbalist(mwegendereze abasawo bekinansii abafere).
.........
If your infection is recurring, you may also want to see if your sexual partner has a yeast infection. Remember to use condoms when
having sex if you suspect either of you has a
yeast infection.
