Symptoms of Candida infection in women, I didn’t expect it to be so serious!

Women are very susceptible to Candida infection, especially the vaginal area. The symptoms of vaginal infection with Candida are quite obvious, such as vaginitis, itching, burning pain, frequent urination and other symptoms in the vagina.

1. The most common symptoms are excessive vaginal discharge, burning and itching of the vulva and vagina. It may affect the urethra and cause frequent urination. Symptoms such as urinary urgency and pain when urinating. Treatment: Rinse the vulva and vagina with alkaline solution of sodium bicarbonate or soapy water to change the acidity and alkalinity of the vagina, making it unfavorable for fungal growth. After flushing, insert nystatin tablets or suppositories into the vagina and apply clotrimazole ointment on the vulva for better results.

2. Candidal vaginitis is a common vaginitis, with an incidence rate second only to Trichomonas vaginitis, also known as candidal vaginitis. Caused by infection with Candida albicans.

Vulvar itching and burning pain are the main symptoms of patients. When the symptoms are severe, the patient will be restless and suffer abnormal pain. He may also have frequent urination, dysuria and pain during sexual intercourse. In the acute phase, the amount of leucorrhea increases, and the typical leucorrhea is white, thick and resembling tofu dregs. The diagnosis is confirmed by finding Candida albicans in the patient's vaginal secretions.

3. Symptoms and signs of Candida infection include vulvar itching, increased vaginal discharge in the form of cheesy white sticky discharge, and sometimes vulvar swelling and a burning sensation. Candida albicans can cause a variety of diseases in humans, but it can usually live peacefully in many parts of the body, such as the vagina. Even some men and women with a history of promiscuous sex may not necessarily develop the disease, they are just latent sources of infection. Infection only occurs when certain changes in the body environment make it suitable for Candida to multiply in large numbers. Diabetes, oral contraceptives, drugs, pregnancy and food can all be causes of infection.

4. Candida albicans is a fungus that usually exists in the normal human oral cavity, upper respiratory tract, intestines and vagina. It is generally present in small numbers in the normal body and does not cause disease. When the body's immune function or general defense is reduced or the mutual restraint of normal flora is disordered, the fungus will multiply in large numbers and change its growth form (blastohyphae phase) to invade cells and cause disease. Candida albicans, also known as Candida albicans, is widely present in nature and also in the oral cavity, upper respiratory tract, intestines and vagina of normal people. It is generally present in small numbers in the normal body and does not cause disease. It is a conditionally pathogenic fungus.
