Vaginal infection of the candida yeast are fairly common.
The CDC estimates 75% of all women have a candida infection in their lifetime. Half of them have two or more.
About 10-20% of these are complicated infections that require immediate testing and long-term treatment.
Complicated vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is rare but can cause serious symptoms.
Candida vaginitis is different from bacterial vaginosis as the later is caused by bacterial infection and is treated with antibiotics (not antifungal creams).
Therefore, an at-home candida vaginitis test can help isolate the overlapping symptoms to decide an antifungal treatment or antibacterial treatment.
Symptoms may not always be clear, but they relate to infection of vagina and vulva. A few common symptoms include:
Thick white vaginal discharge.
Inflammation, swelling, redness, and irritation.
Painful burning and itching when urinating.
Discomfort during sexual intercourse.
Candida overgrowth rarely occurs from sex partners. However, douching can make the symptoms worse.
Other underlying conditions, such as diabetes, frequent use of antibiotics, incomplete treatment from past infections, and compromised immune systems might affect the infection.
A vulvovaginal candidiasis or candida vaginitis test checks for the five different species of candida yeast:
Candida albicans
Candida glabrata
Candida parapsilosis
Candida tropicalis
Candida krusei
