Thrush

Thrush is an inconvenient, irritating and a common problem which most women experience. It effects at least 25% of women at some stage in their lives.

Frequently the symptoms can be managed easily by a combination of lifestyle changes and medications available from the pharmacy. Occasionally it may not respond to these measures and a visit to the doctor for a definite diagnosis and treatment is necessary.

Generally women complain of itching, irritation or soreness in the vaginal/genital area. This can be accompanied by redness and a white curd-like discharge.
