Yeast Symptoms

The more common yeast symptoms are:

  • Itching/burning in the vulva or labia.
  • Odorless white discharge that resembles cottage cheese.
  • Pain during intercourse or lower abdominal pain that comes and goes.
  • Burning when urinating.

However, there are many candida albicans symptoms that are more diverse and vary from person to person. Millions of people suffer from candida overgrowth and don’t even know it, making it difficult to diagnose. Here are some more yeast symptoms to consider:

  • frequent diaper rash (in children)
  • general felling of being unwell or feeling in a fog
  • unusual craving for specific foods like carbohydrates, sweets and alcohol
  • upon eating these foods, your body experiences a letdown worse than normal
  • abnormal fatigue
  • concentration/focus problems
  • short term memory
  • painful joints
  • muscle aches and muscle weakness
  • sore throat or difficulty in swallowing
  • white coated tongue
  • light sensitivity or blurry vision or eye pain
  • white or blood blisters in the mouth/tongue/throat
  • night sweats, chills, unrefreshed sleep
  • muscle twitching or a ‘crawling skin’ feeling
  • moods swings or changes in personality
  • irritability and anxiety, even panic attacks
  • depression
  • extreme tightness in the neck and shoulders
  • sensitivity to noises/sounds, foods, and chemicals
  • sensitivity to heat or cold
  • chronic constipation/diarrhea/irritable bowels/rectal itching
  • bloating or painful gas
  • eczema, acne, or dry flaking skin
  • frequent urination
  • ringing in the ears (tinnitus)
  • lightheadedness or fainting
  • weight changes without changes in diet
  • having the symptoms of low blood sugar like weakness, headaches, and sudden hunger
  • chronic sinusitis
  • hypertension/high blood pressure or irregular heartbeat
  • dizziness and balance problems
  • troubled with chronic abdominal pain, menstrual pain, and other menstrual and sexual difficulties
  • jock itch
  • toenail and fingernail infections/fungus infections of the skin
  • acid reflux
  • headaches or migraines
  • numbness/tingling in the face or extremities

This list may be missing even more yeast symptoms, as there are a variety of factors that can be associated with this condition.  Yeast symptoms that involve rectal itching, bloating or constipation could point to an intestinal yeast infection.  White blisters in the mouth can mean thrush (oral yeast infection.)  However, some symptoms of a yeast infection may not be present at all until the candida overgrowth has made significant progress in the immune system.

Vaginal yeast infection symptoms can be unique to every woman, and at different times in her life.  Male yeast symptoms could include a strong craving for sugar or alcohol, while showing no physical symptoms initially.  Knowing your body and being aware of what you put into it is a smart lifestyle choice, especially when determining a candida infection.

If you have never experienced a yeast infection or any candida related infection before, it is wise to seek the advise of a good doctor; a simple test can determine if there is candida overgrowth and not anything else like an STD (sexually transmitted disease.)  This is very important: running to the store and purchasing over-the-counter antifungals when yeast infection treatments aren’t necessary can hurt you in the future.  More people everyday become immune to yeast antifungals.  I personally get no relief from using Monistat anymore.
