When you are thinking about the signs and symptoms of a yeast infection there are the well known symptoms that we all know about and then there are the lesser known ones. What makes it even worse is that, the unknown symptoms may be the most important ones.

Did you know, for instance, that an abnormal amount of “gas” is a symptom? What makes it even worse is, this same “gas” spreads the Candida infection even further through your underwear, pyjamas and bedding! This goes to show that knowing the lesser known symptoms is very important.

1. Here are the well known signs and symptoms of a yeast infection:

* I think we all know the burning and the itching
* The papery or cottage cheese like discharge
* Sometimes the pain when passing urine
* Even the “old cheese” smell

2. The lesser know ones:

* OK, so I have already mentioned the “gas”
* Then there is the fatigue
* The general “ill” feeling
* Memory loss
* Abdominal pain
… To mention but a few!

This goes to show that it is very important to know all the signs and symptoms of a yeast infection. You can get pretty ill from it and it can become a systemic fungus infection (an overgrowth in your whole system) and the longer you leave it, the worse it will get. Know the symptoms and treat it holistically, that is the best way to handle a Candida Infection.
