subject: Learn How To Best Have An Understanding Of And Defeat Symptoms Of A Yeast Infection In Women [print this page] There are many symptoms of a yeast infection in women, but I would like to talk about the most common one that seems to be a growing problem among the female population-vaginal yeast infections.
It can be extremely annoying and embarrassing to have a vaginal yeast infection with many ladies experiencing at least one in their lifetime.
There are many reasons women can have a yeast infection. There are women who have never had a yeast infection or maybe just one and they should count their selves lucky because others of us have had to deal with yeast for the majority of our lives. Signs ranging anywhere from aggravating itching and heavy discharge to mild almost bearable discomfort.
Annoying, frustrating vaginal itching, nothing is more aggravating to have to endure for a day or more. It is hard to live your everyday life and it can be very embarrassing.
There are products available to help relieve the itching, but most of the time only temporarily. You have to keep going to the bathroom to apply these creams that just mask the problem, who really wants to do that?
On top of which a thick white vaginal discharge, the classic symptom of a yeast infection in women. As if things weren't bad enough with the itching.
It sure would be nice to just be able to wash the off, but you can't. This is the candida overgrowth showing itself. The only thing you can do about this is to overload your system with good bacteria, because at this stage in the infection, the yeast has wiped all of your good or natural bacteria away.
Restoring your flora has multiple different natural options. But it will take a lot to do it. Vaginally applying non sweetened yogurt or just eating it every day, is a good place to start. We are trying to replace your good bacteria here and this is an excellent way to start.
Probiotics can be another helpful thing here. Secondary symptoms like vaginal swelling and burning are something else you may have to deal with here. This usually comes with the itching. Burning during urination is not caused by the scratching, however. Extreme swelling can cause irritation and rawness of the vaginal inner walls due to the candida overgrowth.
A yeast infection can have many symptoms but these three, burning, itching, and white discharge are the most common. You have a yeast infection if you are experiencing these three symptoms. Alleviating the symptoms of a yeast infection in women is one thing, but curing the infection is another.
A healthy immune system helps to clearing up the root of the infection without too much work. If your immune system is weak or compromised in any way, you may have a harder time getting rid of it.
Being free from yeast is as simple as understanding what excattly it is and taking the necessary steps to ridding your body of candida. Candida can get out of control and take over your body very quickly. It can become much worse than a simple infection if left to develop out of control.
