Yeast infections

Yeast infections, also known as Candidiasis, are a common fungal infection caused primarily by the overgrowth of Candida albicans — a naturally occurring yeast in the body. While most women experience at least one vaginal yeast infection in their lifetime, men can also be affected, especially in moist, warm areas of the body.

Though not classified as a sexually transmitted infection (STI), yeast infections can still be passed between sexual partners and are often triggered by factors like antibiotic use, hormonal changes, tight clothing, high-sugar diets, or a weakened immune system.
