Vaginal thrush, also known as a yeast infection, is a condition that nearly all women will experience at some point in their lives. While generally unpleasant, it is not a cause for concern. However, if you are experiencing recurrent infections, you are probably wanting to find a way to treat them and to stop them from happening.

Symptoms of Thrush

• Itchy or sore labia
• Vaginal discharge
• Pain during sex and urination
• Red, swollen, or cracked skin around the vagina
  

Vaginal thrush is caused by an increase of the yeast Candida. Most women have candida in their vagina without any issue, but if the yeast experiences an overgrowth it can cause thrush. Thrush may happen more often if you are pregnant, take antibiotics, have diabetes, or have a weakened immune system. It can also be the result of having sex without enough lubrication.

Other Causes of Chronic Yeast Infections:

• The initial infection was not fully treated
• Transmission back and forth
  

Thrush Prevention
Candida thrives in wet and warm conditions, such as in sweat or saliva. That is why regular hygiene and dental practices are important as well as avoiding consistently damp environments. You can help prevent the occurrence of thrush by:

• Never use a douche and avoid perfumed soaps
• Wear cotton underwear and breathable fabrics
• Anecdotal evidence claims probiotic yoghurts and supplements help maintain vaginal bacteria balance
• Do not overwash the area around your vagina

Thrush Treatment
Vaginal thrush treatment can usually be provided by your pharmacist and you most likely will not need to see your GP. Your pharmacist can prescribe effective antifungal medications or topical creams that should stop your symptoms within a week or two.

A common antifungal medication treatment for vaginal yeast infections is Fluconazole tablets. They act rapidly to stop the excessive production of Candida and you should feel relief within a few days of starting the course of treatment. It can also be used as a preventative measure against a yeast infection.
