Yeast Infection
Cause
By
Yvonne Easton
Are you searching
for a yeast infection cause to explain the painful
and embarrassing symptoms associated with a candida
fungal infection? Is this your first attack or have
you been struggling with frequent yeast infections.
Whether you are suffering from the itching, burning
sores from a vaginal, penile, oral or skin yeast
infection, the root cause is usually the same. This
article will explore some common causes of a yeast
infection.
Yeast Infection Cause
#1 - Antibiotics
When someone is prescribed an antibiotic to get rid
of a virus or infection, the medicine works by
killing both 'good' and 'bad' bacteria. This is good
news for the 'bad' bacteria as the medicine
generally works as expected. Killing the 'good'
bacteria' however, is another matter. This bacteria
is used to keep the levels of yeast in the body in
check. Without it, yeast levels rise and you are at
a risk for a candida yeast outbreak.
Yeast
Infection Cause #2 - Unprotected Sex
If you are having unprotected sex with a partner who
has an active vaginal or penile yeast fungal
infection, then you can catch it. It is best for
both partners to use protection until the infection
has cleared up for a period of time - typically a
few weeks. Studies have found that men who are
uncircumcised are at a higher risk to contract a
yeast outbreak from a female partner with excessive
vaginal yeast.
Yeast Infection Cause
#3 - Sugar
The combination of yeast and sugar in the body is
not healthy for candida levels. When yeast is
combined with sugar - it multiplies at a higher
rate. If a person has high levels of sugar in their
bloodstream, then they are at risk for contracting a
candida infection. While this is a common issue for
diabetics (whether Type I or II) - you could still
be pre-diabetic, not know it and have an issue with
recurring yeast.
