Tell me if you had any experieces of Thrush in the vagina,which is just irritating
Thrush can grow into a yeast infection which also is candida.It is very contagious as well as serious. It craves sugar and you probably are addicted to sugar and carbohydrates. If you have a partner it will spread through sex, also through kissing. There are products that say they will cure it, however it will not prevent it from coming back or getting it again especially if you are frequently getting sick and on anti-biotics as your immune system gets weakened. You need to change your eating. If you care to you may contact me, for a yeast test, and I understand completely and want to help you as I have been helped.
Thrush is just one of many diverse symptoms of Candida Albicans which is basically a yeast problem..We all have Candida Albicans almost from the day we are born ....this is a yeast fungus that is usually contained to certain areas of our body unless we are stressed or are experiencing hormonal problems, another reason might be that you have had antibiotics which kill the natural bacteria in the gut which control the fungus.
There are several different medications that will help you but I would also suggest watching what you eat...Cut out bread from your diet also beer if you drink it, both are full of yeast...Eat live yogurt (not as hideous as you might imagine and easily obtainable) as this builds up the "friendly" bacteria that helps maintain a healthy balance in your gut.....if you are quite a strong determined type try to just eat fish, rice and vegetables for a while as none of these contain yeast (not mushrooms though as these are a fungus in themselves) There are plenty of small books about Candida Albicans to be found in health shops which, if you are interested, will give you more information about the problem, show you the other symptoms and give you advice on what to/what not to eat...I wish you all the best.
If you don't want to keep dosing with Diflucan, then you can also try using some natural, live yoghurt. Choose a good quality yoghurt, with acidophilus cultures. Rachel's or Yeo Valley are both good. Apply locally to the vagina, and also eat it. DONT add sugar when you eat it, as this will just feed the yeast. And, as the others have mentioned, look at your diet. Are you eating a balanced, healthy diet? If you get it recurrently, then you might try cutting all yeast and sugar from your diet for a few weeks, but this is a tough regime to follow.
Good luck.
