What is a yeast infection?
Yeast infections result from an overgrowth of yeast in the body. It can begin in the intestines, where the Candida organism likes to exist, normally in small amounts, and it can frequently spread elsewhere in the body.
Left unchecked, yeast can change to its fungal form and multiply rapidly.

Under certain conditions, they can become so numerous they cause infections, particularly in warm and moist areas (like you).
Such infections can manifest as vaginal yeast infection, thrush, skin and diaper rash, as well as nailbed infections.
