Yeast infection can be a persistent condition, as many of us have
experienced. Many women develop this problem during menopause. If your
symptoms recur again and again even after they have been treated
successfully, it could be that the infection never went away in the
first place. It was - and possibly is - always there, waiting for an
appropriate time to strike again. When the right conditions come up,
the infection rears its head again, with all those symptoms we'd
rather not have.
That's why it is so important to get at the roots of the problem.
Obviously, that's not always easy, especially when most treatments aim
to contain symptoms instead of bringing about a comprehensive cure. My
blog has more information on some of these things, and if you would
like to check it out, I would certainly suggest it:

Lowered immunity is the biggest cause of yeast infections. This could
be because you are too run down with not enough rest and an excessive
workload. It could also be the result of other illnesses that have
lowered your immunity - possibly even HIV, which causes AIDS. Yeast
infections can also result from other illnesses less serious than
AIDS, as well as menopause, significant changes in diet, inadequate
nutrition, hormonal changes from pregnancy and more.
