What is a vaginal yeast infection?
Every woman has fungi and bacteria in her vagina. These fungi and bacteria are even indispensable for a healthy vaginal flora. Sometimes the natural balance between these fungi and bacteria is disturbed. This can happen, for example, due to a reduced resistance. Certain fungi or bacteria then get the chance to grow into an infection. The most common vaginal fungus is candida. Contrary to popular belief, a vaginal yeast infection is not an STD .
