What is Thrush infection?
Thrush is caused by an overgrowth of Candida albicans, a yeast that normally lives in the vagina in small amounts. It can multiply due to changes in hormones, antibiotic use, stress, or wearing tight, non-breathable clothing. While not a sexually transmitted infection, thrush can flare up after sex or during pregnancy.


What Are the Symptoms of a Thrush infection?
Symptoms vary but often include:
Burning sensation around the vaginal area
Itching or irritation around the vagina
Redness or swelling of the vulva
Soreness or pain during sex or urination
Thick white discharge (often described as 'cottage cheese-like')
