Initial diagnosis for
vaginal yeast infection
, also known as vaginal candidiasis, is most obligatory
for treating and preventing the condition quickly. It's
important to learn about the symptoms of this medical
condition, so that you'll be able to seek and carry out
the right treatment for your condition.
While the diagnosis of vaginal candidiasis can only be
established by a physician, the aim of this article is
to provide you with solid information concerning the
most common vaginal yeast infection
symptoms so initial diagnosis can be made.
Vaginal
yeast infection symptoms can be divided into three
categories: visual, sensual and odor:
1.
Visual
vaginal yeast infection symptoms
include
a thick, white discharge from your vulva or vagina.
Numerous medical articles refer to this discharge as a
"cottage cheese like", however it may also be yellow
colored, or thin and almost transparent.
Candida infection can also manifest itself as
a
redness of
the vaginal area.
2.
Sensual symptoms include
itching or discomfort, burning feeling in your vagina
and vulva (outside of the vagina). These
sensations can appear occasionally,
especially during sexual intercourse or urination.
Unpleasant
sensations
can vary
from hardly noticeable to extremely painful.
3. Odor symptoms include a
discharge from your vulva or vagina
doesn't necessary smell bad. However, some
patients report unusual and unpleasant smell
in a crouch area. Such a symptoms may be an evidence of
other vaginal infection subtypes, such as bacterial
vaginosis
and trichomoniasis.
Candidiasis can be easily treated with intravaginal
or oral anti-yeast medications. However,
conventional medicine that is focused mainly on the external
symptoms of candida infection, has some obvious
limitations. First of all, most medications have undesirable
side effects, secondly, unlike the holistic all natural
way of treating candidiasis, these medications merely
tackle the external manifestations of vaginal yeast
infection (burning, discharge, redness) rather than
fixing the internal condition that causes these symptoms
to manifest in the first
place.
Once diagnosed, treating vaginal candidiasis using an
all natural more holistic approach that recognizes
most yeast infection as a result of candida
albicans overgrowth and thus tackles Candida infections
internally as well as externally can not only cure the
condition in the classical sense, it can also prevent
vaginal yeast infection
recurrence.
