A yeast infection can become a very uncomfortable sensation for most
people. This type of infection is very common, affecting nearly
seventy-five percent of the female population. This infection is
caused by a type of yeast-like fungus called Candida, which is
naturally present in our bodies in small quantities. Its numbers are
carefully regulated by bacteria in our bodies. If this bacterial
balance is disrupted, the yeast could be allowed to grow
uncontrollably, causing an infection.
Most yeast infections can be treated at home with over-the-counter or
prescription medication and can clear up in less than a week. This is
***uming that your immune system has not been compromised by another
form of disease, such as HIV or Lyme disease. Treatment can come in
cream, pill, or ******l suppository form. You should consult your
physician first to find which form of treatment is right for you.
If you have a weak immune system, your doctor may treat minimal
infections with homecare, but if the infection becomes serious, you
may need IV medication given at the hospital....
