Vaginal Candidiasis is one of the most common fungal infections of the female genital tract and the second most common vaginal infection affecting women of reproductive age after the bacterial infection worldwide It affects more than 75 of women at least once in their lifetime with approximately 50 of them also suffering a single recurrence
About 75 of patients suffering from candidiasis are asymptomatic but it may be symptomatic with clinical picture characterized by itching vaginal pain vulvar burning sensation dyspareunia dysuria and mildly unpleasant odor erythema and vulvar edema white-yellowish plaques on the walls of the vagina and cervix and cheesy vaginal discharge The risk of vulvo-vaginal candidiasis increases by 30 during pregnancy also in pregnancy the presence of vaginitis is related to abortion intrauterine infection fetal growth retardation premature rupture of membranes preterm birth low birth weight puerperal infection and other adverse pregnancy outcomes
