What is a vaginal yeast infection (vaginal thrush)?
A vaginal yeast infection, also known as vaginal candidiasis or vaginal thrush, is a common condition caused by an overgrowth of Candida, a type of fungus normally present in small amounts in the vagina. This overgrowth can lead to symptoms such as itching, burning, and abnormal discharge in the vagina. Vaginal yeast infections are treatable with antifungal medications like Canex V, which can help relieve these symptoms, providing ease and comfort.
Symptoms of vaginal yeast infections include:

Abnormal vaginal discharge (watery to thick, white odour-free discharge with a cottage cheese appearance)

Painful and burning urination

Itching and burning in and around the vagina

Redness and swelling of the skin just outside of the vagina
