Reasons for Recurring Yeast Infections

What are the main reasons your recurring yeast infection that keeps coming back?

1. Yeast infection is not caused by bacteria but by a fungus. In fact, there is a bacteria that lives in your body that actually helps control the fungus that causes a yeast infection. Most medicines and ointments will relieve the symptoms of recurring yeast infections, but they also kill the “good friendly” bacteria that helps control the fungus. So, the fungus grows back at a more aggressive rate than before and the infection gets worse.

2. The fungus lives and grows on the food that we eat. Certain food will be particularly attractive to the growth of yeast infection.

3. Although a yeast infection is not contagious by being in the vacinity of a person who is infected, the spores of the fungus can be passed between people by contact. If the spores of the fungus come in contact with a person and these spores find a nice warm moist place to live, then they will make a home and grow more spores.

As long as a conducive environment exists for the fungus, recurring yeast infections will continue.
