Vaginal Infections
Candida Vulvovaginitis
What is it
Vulvovaginal Candidiasis (VVC) is a vaginal yeast infection that can cause vaginal soreness, abnormal vaginal discharge, or itching and redness. It is a fungal infection where the body’s yeast, candida, is out of balance. Anyone can get this infection. Certain factors may put individuals at a higher risk, but they are very common and highly treatable.
How to diagnose and treat
Visit your healthcare provider to get a diagnosis. They will discuss your symptoms with you and take a sample of your vaginal discharge. Common treatments include over-the-counter anti-fungal medications. Another common treatment is Boric Acid, as it balances the acid in the vagina and relieves symptoms.
