Vaginitis

The candidiasis (Candida albicans disorders ) were once rare. Their frequency has increased over the past two decades, to the point that they now represent a significant part of the pathology: we are talking more and more of these fungal diseases, agents of infectious and parasitic diseases.

The Candida albicans yeast are characterized by unicellular elements, a budding blastopores or formation of a pseudo or a genuine mycelium. There are currently 35 species of Candida. These yeasts are generally saprophytes of the skin and mucous membranes. They can become pathogenic under certain conditions: failure of immunity, long-term treatment with antibiotics, steroids, and immuno-depressants.

Broadly speaking, there are candidas in asthma, rhinitis, hives, thrush, intestinal, vaginal achieving visceral, lungs, kidneys, fungal infections of the skin and nails, candidiasis widespread, the level of the skin and mucous membranes.

Many factors promote the development of candidiasis, focal or generalized: cellular immunity deficits, diabetes, lung scars, chronic intestinal diseases, taking hormonal contraceptives ( "pill" contraceptive), antibiotics, destructive of the intestinal flora (factor Most of the immunity)

However, the most common causative agent of these fungal infections can be an intestinal disorder caused by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal mucosa, with the important event that an imbalance occurs of the intestinal flora.
