Vaginal thrush is a common yeast infection that will affect most women at some stage in their life, most commonly caused by an overgrowth of a yeast called Candida albicans (with associated inflammation)
Common symptoms include vaginal irritation and itching, change in discharge and pain.
Vaginal thrush isn't considered a sexually transmitted infection.
It usually clears up within a week of treatment with antifungal medication. This is available at your pharmacy or on prescription from your doctor.
For some women, vaginal thrush is more difficult to treat and tends to reoccur quite frequently, despite treatment.
