The Best Way To Deal With A Bacterial Yeast Infection

A candida infection can be described as a bacterial yeast infection and it is a very common infection for women

. A candida infection and bacterial vaginosis can mimic each other with their symptoms, however they require completely different treatments.

Bacterial vaginosis is actually caused by the harmful bacterium Gardnerella. Bacterial vaginosis used to be called Gardnerella vaginitis because that was the bacteria that usually caused this infection.

Now a candida infection or yeast infection is actually caused by a fungus candida albicans. And it is basically what it sounds like an overgrowth of yeast or candida albicans.

An infection can occur when your natural flora gets disturbed for some reason. You see candida live naturally in your body and are usually kept in check by your immune system and "good" bacteria.

Antibiotics are one of the leading reasons for all types of candida infections. Antibiotics kill "bad" bacteria while accidentally killing the "good" bacteria leaving your natural flora unbalanced. This means you are very susceptible to getting either infection.

Bacterial vaginosis is not a STD and cannot be transmitted through intercourse. However a yeast infection is not considered a STD per say but it can be transmitted back and forth between partners, my husband and I found that out the hard way.

Men can have a mild yeast infection and pass it on to you if left untreated. It is not uncommon for men to experience little to no symptoms of a yeast infection and just be a carrier.

A vaginal white discharge is a symptom of a yeast infection in women. This dishcarge could be like crumbly blue cheese or cottage cheese anywhere from light to very thick.

You should experience soreness around the vagina with quite a lot of itchiness. Other symptoms may include painful urination and pain during intercourse.

Candida infections are common everything from thrush, athlete's foot, skin or a more serious infection like intestinal, digestive or even a systemic yeast infection. If left untreated candida infections can cause you many problems.

A systemic yeast infection is where candida has entered the blood stream and can really play havoc on all of your major organs. Now a systemic candida infection is rare but it can happen if you continue to ignore the signs.

Treating your symptoms and not addressing the root of the infection is what a lot of the over the counter yeast infection treatments will give you. But the only way to be sure you won't be dealing with another infection in the future is to kill all the candida in your entire body. It's easy and it's the only permanent solution.
