Itching of the skin folds outside the vagina (the vulva) is one of the most common thrush symptoms. Often symptoms can be quite irritating and will not go without treatment from antifungal creams. Sometimes thrush symptoms are minor and clear up on their own. This leaflet focuses on vaginal yeast infections (vaginal thrush). However sometimes they multiply and cause thrush symptoms.Ĭandida can also cause fungal skin infections and mouth infections ( oral thrush). Most of the time, they don't cause any problems. Small numbers of candida commonly live on the skin and around the vaginal area. Candida is one of these.įungi like warm, moist, airless places, and a vagina is a perfect home for them. Many others don't cause any harm, or any symptoms, unless they grow too much. Some of these germs are helpful to us - for instance, 'friendly' bacteria in the gut help us to digest our food. We all have many germs living on or inside us all the time. doi:10.4317/medoral.Thrush is caused by the overgrowth of a fungus called candida.

Studies have shown that apple cider vinegar can inhibit the growth of Candida in the lab, but it was not as effective as certain antifungals and could cause stinging and pain. Apple cider vinegar: Apple cider vinegar is a centuries-old remedy that is used to treat certain skin infections, including acne.A 2016 study in the journal Scientifica reported that coconut oil applied to Candida albicans samples in the lab was as effective at inhibiting fungal growth as the antifungal drug Nizoral (ketoconazole). Coconut oil: Coconut oil has antifungal properties that may aid in the treatment of mild yeast infections.However, a downside is that tea tree oil can cause irritation and contact dermatitis in some people. Research has suggested that tea tree oil, when applied to Candida albicans strains in the lab, might be more effective at inhibiting fungal growth than some of the more commonly used antifungals. Tea tree oil: Tea tree oil is known to have significant antifungal properties.A 2015 study in the Global Journal of Health Science suggested that the topical application of yogurt, honey, and a topical antifungal was more effective in relieving vaginal yeast infection symptoms than the antifungal alone. Yogurt: Yogurt is a natural probiotic that may help control Candida overgrowth by increasing the concentration of healthy bacteria and yeast in affected tissues.
