What is Thrush?
In women Thrush symptoms are a white creamy discharge from the vagina with itching and sometimes spots or redness caused by a change in the pH of the vagina. Men usually have spots and itching around the genitals.
Thrush is a Fungus/yeast, most people who have thrush don’t catch it from sexual contact. The fungus is often present on skin normally and an infection can start after taking antibiotics or from becoming sore from sports such as cycling or horse riding
Yeast from the fungus can be detected by taking a swab from the discharge
Thrush can be cured with anti-fungal treatments.
MORE INFO :
Some people have problems with thrush. This may be due to something simple like using bubble bath which can wash away the natural oils from the vagina. As the fungus can be spread from sexual contact the person should be asked if they have a sexual partner who should be treated as well.
