How can normal flora become virulent?

Example of normal flora organusm?

Most women are surprised to learn they have a normal flora that contains yeast (men and women carry this flora). Women try so hard (too much) to keep the vagina "clean" often using douches one or more times a day. Then the Ph in the vagina changes and the normal yeast begins to multiply and the woman gets a "yeast infection". Although it seems to contradict what many women believe about physical health (especially for the vagina), trying to be "very clean" can actually set off the sequence of events that allows microorganisms to become pathogens and cause infection.

Can normal flora be harmful?

Normal flora exists on and in the body. But certain normal flora lives only in certain body areas. For example, we have E-Coli microorganisms in the large intestines, rectum, and on the skin around the anus. If that flora is "moved" to a different body area, say in the mouth (from not washing hands after wiping away a bowel movement) or in the vagina (from wiping back to front), then infection can occur. Some diseases make normal flora multiply. For example, yeast is found on the skin, mouth, and in the vagina. People with diabetes can have frequent yeast infections in the mouth, vagina, and in skin folds.

Can normal flora become opportunistic pathogens?

Yes, normal microbial flora can become virulent or pathogenic if the conditions are right. On outside of body normal flora is harmless, if it was to be ingested it would take the opportunity to do as much damage as possible.

Can you prevent getting disease in normal flora?

Normal flora cannot cause a "disease". But if normal flora is disrupted it can become a pathogen and then cause infection. Some diseases, like diabetes, can disrupt normal flora and cause infection, especially yeast infections on the skin or in the vagina of women.

When do you get your normal flora?

Normal flora is bacteria and yeast normally found on the skin and in every body orifice (or opening, such as the mouth, ears, rectum, vagina). A newborn carries the flora of his/her mother but soon develops his/her own flora. Flora is present on our bodies until we die. We can disrupt the balance of normal flora, such as when women douche too frequently, and thus the microorganisms begin to multiply and become pathogens.

How are normal flora originally acquired?

The fetus is surrounded by amniotic fluid of its mother. It acquires the normal flora of its mother. After birth, the newborn begins to acquire its own "normal flora". Humans have normal flora on their skin and in every body throughout life; it is not completely washed away although it can be changed, reduced, or disrupted by medications or changes in Ph or by actions humans take during hygiene or sexual activities. Then micro-oganisms of the normal flora become pathogens that can cause infection.

What does rare growth normal skin flora mean?

Is it normal to have 3 plus mixed skin flora within a wound?

Normal skin flora is a combination of many types of micro-organisms, including bacteria, viruses and yeast. When a wound occurs, some "normal flora" are introduced into the wound, especially in a penetrating wound such as a stabbing or shooting. When a wound culture is performed, the pathologist looks for "normal flora" which could become pathogens if the organisms begin to multiply, especially since those organisms of the normal flora are now in a place they should not normally be (i.e. transferred from the skin to inside the body, in a blood-rich environment). The pathologist also looks for other pathogens, such as the once-normal flora of the assailant or perpetrator which could infect the new host (the person with the wound).

What is another term for normal flora?
