Fungal Candida infections are frequent, especially among teenagers. It was estimated that about 75% of women have had at least one episode of vulvovaginal candidiasis in their lifetime. Among them, more or less half will have a second relapse, and in some cases the infection will turn into recurring candidiasis (characterized by 3-5 episodes per year that are repeated). It is important to talk immediately with your gynecologist to try to establish a good plan to prevent recurrence.
