It depends on your age and gender. In babies, it causes diaper rash. Young children and some adults get thrush in their mouth from Candida albicans. In females it is responsible for vaginitis or yeast infections and men get jock itch. Those are the most common and medically accepted things Candida can cause.
However, many people believe it is also responsible for a range of symptoms encompassing the whole body. Some of these are:
1. GI tract problems such as gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea and indigestion.
2. Skin problems including rashes, eczema, athletes foot, and acne.
3. Emotional issues such as anxiety, depression, mood swings, etc.
4. Headaches, migraines and joint pain.
I'm sure I have missed some, but I hope that helps.

Monilia and Candida albicans are both types of fungi, but they belong to different genera. Monilia is a genus that includes various species of fungi, while Candida albicans refers to a specific species within the Candida genus. Candida albicans is commonly found on the skin and mucous membranes of humans and can cause infections, whereas Monilia infections are less common and typically affect plants.
The confirmation test for Candida albicans is a germ tube test. This test involves incubating Candida yeast cells in human or animal serum at 37°C for 2-3 hours, where true C. albicans strains will exhibit germ tube formation. This is a specific test for identifying C. albicans among other Candida species.
