Candida Condition Symptoms & Treatment

<h1>Candida Condition Symptoms & Treatment</h1>Author: <a title="John Cielo" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/john-cielo/145630.htm">John Cielo</a> Looking for Candida condition symptoms? Want to find an effective Candida condition treatment? Then you'll get that information here, along with the causes of the condition, plus, some natural treatment options. First the cause of your Candida condition... The cause is a naturally occurring flora known as Candida albicans (hence the 'Candida'). This can be found in the population at large, particularly in the intestinal tract. It usually doesn't cause any dramas because our bodies' good bacteria takes care of things for us. At least to the extent of stopping it from growing and spreading. But when your immune system is compromised and 'below par', the fungi can 'overgrow' thus causing the Candida condition we also call 'yeast infection.' The types of things that can trigger this are things such as; the use of antibiotics and steroids, poor nutrition, stress, medical conditions, some medicines, diabetes (which feeds the yeast), body pH, hormonal changes, etc. Candida condition symptoms are... Swollen / inflamed vulva, chronic itching, thick white discharge, pain when peeing, painful sex. These are the symptoms where the condition is in the vagina. The symptoms where the condition is in the mouth are; creamy white raised spots on tongue and mucous membranes, slight burning feeling in mouth and throat, difficulty swallowing, bad breath. So now let's look at mainstream Candida condition treatment... This usually takes the form of drug-based topical creams etc. that are applied to the symptoms. You can get these through prescription or over-the-counter. They can work very well for most women with the condition. But if you're one of the many women who suffer from recurring Candida, or, your Candida just seems to be very stubborn and won't go away, then you'll know that these mainstream treatments don't work for everyone. Which is why many women nowadays turn to totally natural treatments. Many women are now using natural remedies for Candida. Here are just a few... 1 - Apply plain, unsweetened yogurt to the area. Or dip a tampon in it and insert in the vagina. But it has to be the type of yogurt that has live, active cultures. Check the label. 2 - Crush a peeled clove of raw garlic to a paste and apply over the area affected. Or, use it as a natural tampon by inserting a peeled clove, and leaving over night. 3 - Bathe in a low warm bath that has had 2 cups of apple cider vinegar added. Bathe for around 20 minutes. Repeat daily until the symptoms go away. But it has to be raw, unpasteurised apple cider vinegar with no additives. These are just 3 of a ton of natural candida home remedies. You need to find out about all the others and through trial and error discover which works best for you. But you also have to address the underlying issues such as your diet and lifestyle.
