A woman's healthy vagina is a moist place with a delicate balance of microorganisms. Subtle shifts can tip this balance, causing vaginitis (the general term for the variety of vaginal infections).
Vaginal Thrush is one of the most common infections affecting the genitals. A yeast called Candida albicans is responsible for the infection and discomfort caused in most cases.
