Atibiotics do not fix the problem, they help create it.....probiotics along with antifungals, either prescription or herbal, along with dietary changes are the answer.
Candida is a yeast that can commonly infect women's genital area, and is commonly called Thrush. The actual name is Candida albicans. If you have an overgrowth it means you have a possible infection caused by this organism. It's not the end of the world. Antibiotics will fix it, but remember to have lots of Yoghurt afterwards. After antibiotics, the natural microflora (bacteria) that line the urinary tract and vagina are destroyed. Yoghurt helps put some back. You can also take a cultured drink or the like. The reason for the infection is because your natural flora has been "overrun" by the Candida, hence the "overgrowth".

How does taking antibiotics affect the large intestine?
While killing the bad bacteria in your body it can also kill off the good bacteria normally found in the intestines. A major problem with this is yeast gone wild, starting in the intestines from an overgrowth of Candida, this yeast can migrate out from the intestinal tract - causing thrush in the mouth, throat and esophagus. Yeast will also find it's way to the vagina and rectum causing severe internal and external itching. The best defense for this is a strong offense. Taking enteric coated garlic capsules regularly and eating live-culture yogurt if you have a chronic problem or to use (live) lactobacillus - acidophilus supplements during antibiotic treatment. These methods when taken with the antibiotic will prevent the overgrowth of Candida -

Can you catch yeast infection from another person?
No. Yeast infections are caused by an overgrowth of a yeast that naturally exists in the vagina. Since you already have that yeast in you so you can't be "infected" by anyone else. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In fact the yeast, Candida, can be spread. That is how infants often get it - by putting things in their mouth. As someone who has dealt with massive yeast infections while nursing both my children, I can attest to the fact that the infection can be spread. I'm not positive that you can catch it from a toilet seat, but there are other ways to get it besides plain overgrowth and other places to get it besides the vagina.
