Yeast Infection Symptoms

Miconazole resistant yeast infections are easy to create, and more women are now finding this out all the time. They keep applying this anti fungal drug ( miconazole ) to the symptoms of their Candida overgrowth, and then the fungus in their vagina soon becomes resistant.

The biggest mistake women make with attempting to cure their yeast infection with the anti fungal OTC creams is, the vaginal itching is only a symptom of their infection. To keep applying anti fungal cream to a symptom is not going to work ever, but because of their doctor’s advice, these women think this is how they cure a yeast infection.

Yeast lives in your body all the time. It lives in your vagina, in your intestines and on your skin. Your body usually keeps the yeast under control if you’re healthy, and your body’s natural defenses are at full strength. This is why you weren’t suffering from an infection before, but you’ve had the yeast in your body for years.

Because your body’s natural defenses have been compromised they yeast will continue to grow in numbers and mutate into a fungus. You have the symptoms in your vagina because the fungus loves to live in a warm, moist place, so this is where you experience the itching.

Because you’re only experiencing itching in your vagina, that doesn’t mean that this is the only place on or in your body that the fungus has infected. If that was the case then the anti fungal cream would have worked first time. The fungal infection is also on the inside of your body in your intestines, because your body is allowing the yeast to mutate, and your intestines are the place where your body has the most yeast.
