Vaginal Candidiasis And The Most Common Yeast Infection In WomenHow Well Do You Know The Microflora; Yeast-Candida

The entire human body except for some sterile body parts serves as a natural habitat for some beneficial bacteria and fungi.

These bacteria and fungi are commonly referred to as microflora and are very useful to the body playing vital functions and preventing the outbreak of various infections and infestation.

However, these microflora can become a source of medical concern when they are destroyed, allowed to overpopulate, or migrate to parts of the body they ought not to be. At other parts of the body, microflora may become pathogenic causing severe health challenges.

Among the beneficial fungi that inhabit the human body is the yeast species called Candida. This fungus is normally found in the mouth, skin, and female vagina without causing any damage or harm.

The population of the fungus is kept constant and at bay so they continue to be good flora, however, when the environment is right, it can grow multiply and cause serious health concern.

When the fungus- yeast multiplies and the body could not keep the balance, the yeast causes an infection commonly known as yeast infection which is also medically known as candidiasis.

This disease condition is very itchy and makes one very uncomfortable.

Vaginal candidiasis (yeast infection) among women

Vaginal Candidiasis is very common among women and it is reported that about 80% of women are likely to suffer from candidiasis at least once in a lifetime.

In a female, the hormone estrogen supports the growth of microflora which are lactobacilli to help keep the balance of other microflora therefore promoting the health of the vagina.

This helps control yeast infection in women.
