Yeast infections and Candida can be found around the genitalia. You can also find in your mouth or throat as well. Yeast often occurs under skin folds and between the butt cheeks as well as in the genital area, in an around the penis and/or vagina. Everyone has a certain level of yeast in their body, but this yeast can get out of control if you’re immune systems fail or if the immune system is severely weakened. If you’re staying up late at night and not getting enough sleep, or your nutrition is poor, these could both cause your immune system to weaken.

Do you suspect that you might have a yeast infection? If you do don’t let it worry you it is a very common condition, especially in women who tend to have more than one single yeast infection in their life times.

The number of yeast infections are increasing every day with the over use of antibiotics. Antibiotics work by killing the infections and the helpful bacteria in our bodies which keeps yeast in balance. Without the helpful bacteria to stop the yeast growth, the yeast overgrows. So begins a yeast infection after antibiotics.
