Thrush. An infection of the vagina caused by the fungus Candida albicans.
Infection caused by a fungus of the genus Candida. Typically involves the skin.
Generally, a disorder caused by Candida (Monilia) albicans. This is a common yeast-like fungus found in the mouth, vagina, and rectum, as well as on the outside skin. It is a common cause of thrush in infants and vaginal yeast infections. In recent years much attention has been given to the increased numbers of people with candidiasis in the upper and lower intestinal tract. This condition is now known to occur as a result of extended antibiotic therapy and anti-inflammatory treatment. Most anti-inflammatory drugs are really immunosuppressants, and the normal, stable competition between fungus and bacteria is altered by the antibiotic use; this rather benign and common skin and mucosal fungus can then move deeply into the body. Although both therapies are of major importance in managing disease, they are often prescribed or requested trivially, and both are centerpieces to the increased reliance on procedural medicine (surgery). The drug industry is paralyzed by the cost of marketing new drugs, whereas surgical procedures need far easier peer and FDA acceptance. Procedural medicine normally needs antibiotic AND anti-inflammatory therapy.
Infection with a fungus of the genus Candida. Usually a superficial infection of the skin or mucous membranes although sometimes it manifests as a systemic infection or endocarditis. Any form can be more severe in immunocompromised patients

An infection of a body part with a fungus from the genus Candida. Candida may live in individuals gastrointestinal tract because no problems. Overgrowth has been associated with other diseases and symptoms. The exact role of candidiasis in immunocompetent (those without evidence of immune disease) patients is unclear.
(infection with Candida albicans; also called yeast infection; formerly called moniliasis) A fungal infection that occurs when the normal environment in the vagina changes. Candidiasis is an RTI and is not sexually transmitted.
Pronunciation: (kan-dih-DY-uh-siss) A condition in which Candida albicans, a type of yeast, grows out of control in moist skin areas of the body. It is usually a result of a weakened immune system, but can be a side effect of breast cancer chemotherapy or treatment with antibiotics. Thrush usually affects the mouth (oral thrush); however, rarely, it spreads throughout the entire body. Also called candidosis or thrush.
A yeast infection in the vagina. Symptoms of candidiasis are: increased discharge from the vagina and itching. It is an infection but not an STI.
Also called yeast infection or moniliasis, a type of vaginitis caused by the overgrowth of Candida (a fungus normally found in the vagina).

An infection caused by a fungus known as Candida albicans.
mild infection caused by the Candida fungus, which lives naturally in the gastrointestinal tract. Infection occurs when a change in the body, such as surgery, causes the fungus to overgrow suddenly.
a fungus infection, caused by a member of the genus Candida. In the mouth, candidiasis is called thrush and shows up as white patches. In the vagina, the disease is called vulvovaginal candidiasis. Candidiasis can also attack lungs and the esophagus. This infection is considered an AIDS-defining condition in the United States.
Overgrowth of the C. albicans yeast in the gastrointestinal tract, or infection of other body areas with this yeast. Vaginal yeast infections, some forms of diaper rash and other skin rashes that emerge in moist, warm areas of skin, and thrush (a condition characterized by patches of white inside the mouth and/or throat) are all forms of yeast infection. Candidiasis tends to develop when the normal balance of bacteria (flora) in the area is upset, as can occur with antibiotic use. Prevention measures include the use of probiotics and in some cases dietary changes. Treatment is via antifungal medications. Candidiasis is usually a minor and easily addressed problem, but can be more serious for those with immune-system disorders, such as AIDS.
infection with a fungus of the genus Candida. It is usually a superficial infection of the moist cutaneous areas of the body, and is generally caused by C. albicans; it most commonly involves the skin (dermatocandidiasis), oral mucous membranes (thrush, def. 1), respiratory tract (bronchocandidiasis), and vagina (vaginitis). Rarely there is a systemic infection or endocarditis. Called also moniliasis, candidosis, oidomycosis, and, formerly, blastodendriosis.

It is usually a superficial infection of the moist areas of the body and is generally caused by CANDIDA ALBICANS.

Also known as "thrush". A mild fungal infection that can occur when taking inhaled corticosteroids. Usually preventable by using a spacing device and/or gargling and rinsing out the mouth after taking the medication.
An infection due to candida yeast. The symptoms of oral candidiasis (thrush) and vaginal candidiasis (formerly called monilia) include pain, itching, redness and white patches in their respective sites. Some common treatments are clotrimazole, nystatin and miconazole.

Encompasses a group of mucosal and cutaneous conditions with a common etiologic agent from the Candida genus of fungi; most common oral mycotic infection.

An infection with a yeast-like fungus of the Candida family, generally Candida albicans. It most commonly involves the skin (dermatocandidiasis), oral mucosa (thrush), respiratory tract (bronchocandidiasis), and vagina (vaginal candidiasis, formerly called monilia). Candidiasis of the esophagus, trachea, bronchi, or lungs is an indicator disease for AIDS. Oral or recurrent vaginal candida infection is an early sign of immune system deterioration. See Opportunistic Infections; Thrush.

Infection with the microorganisms of the genus Candida.
Yeast or fungal infection that occurs in the oral cavity or pharynx or both. Usually seen in immature or compromised immune systems or after use of antibiotics.

infection with Candida, especially Candida albicans, usually resulting from debilitation (AIDS, prolonged administration of antibiotics)
Infection of the skin or mucous membrane with any species of candida, usually Candida albicans. The infection is usually localized to the skin, nails, mouth, vagina, bronchi, or lungs, but may invade the bloodstream. It is a common inhabitant of the GI tract, only becoming a problem when it multiplies excessively and invades local tissues. Growth is encouraged by a weakened immune system, as in AIDS, or with the prolonged administration of antibiotics. Vaginal symptoms include itching in the genital area, pain when urinating, and a thick odorless vaginal discharge.
