"It’s a yeast infection. It can be passed between partners so important to treat yourself and them, else will reinfect each other? Is that right?" Depends really. If you both have one then yes. If only one does then you can just avoid sex until it's cleared up. You usually wouldn't want to with an active yeast infection anyway | |||

"It’s a yeast infection. It can be passed between partners so important to treat yourself and them, else will reinfect each other? Is that right? It's not sexually transmissible It is sexually transmittable but not an sti Its an overgrowth of yeast usually because of an imbalance in the bacteria you have in your vagina , commonly caused by antibiotics , change in hormones, sanitary items, wearing tights or other tight clothing ... pretty much loads of things Men cant develop it on their own, but can catch it from their partner and keep giving it back to them if both not treated " Man can develop it on their own in the same way women can, diabetes, personal hygiene, antibiotics, general low immune system, tight clothing, etc | |||

" Antibiotics are used to kill off harmful bacteria in the body. But they can also destroy beneficial bacteria in the process, which may lead to a yeast infection. Vaginal yeast infections are fungal infections of the vagina. They happen when a type of fungus called Candida, which occurs naturally in the vagina, begins to grow out of control. Yeast infections can cause intense itching and irritation of the vagina and vulva ." Cranberry is advised for cystitis not thrush I Have had doctors advise to use natural yoghurt to restore natural balance of good bacteria and being it under control but sticking some muller light up didnt really appeal | |||

"A lot of people suffer from gut problems where antibiotics kill off other interflora but the candida albicans survive and take over preventing a return to normality. There is no medical cure for it and such the pharmaceutical industry and therefore the medical fraternity have largely laughed it off as s myth. They can however make holes in your colon causing leaky gut syndrome. Once the toxins from your colon go into your bloodstream a whole load of bad things can happen. You need to avoid sugars, alcohol, preservatives, coffee... basically anything that makes food worth eating." I can't get passed interflora | |||
