Summary
Chronic yeast infections, also known as vaginal candidiasis, can be recurring and are caused by the fungal element Candida albicans. These infections are common, affecting around 75% of women at some point. While not considered a sexually transmitted infection, sexual activity can contribute to transmission. The infection is treatable, but understanding why it recurs is important for effective treatment. Symptoms include itching, burning, redness, swelling, pain, and a thick, whitish discharge with no odor. Complicated yeast infections can occur with frequent recurrences, atypical fungus, pregnancy, or uncontrolled diabetes. The main cause is an imbalance between naturally occurring bacteria and yeast in the vaginal canal, with antibiotic use, pregnancy, feminine hygiene practices, and sexual activity as contributing factors.
