The cause of Candidiasis in men is the same as in women; a yeast-like fungus called Candida albicans. This is found in all of us quite naturally but is normally easily controlled by the friendly bacteria in our bodies. Sometimes the good guys can be overwhelmed though, and the Candida albicans 'overgrows' to such a level that it causes what we call Candidiasis, or, Candida, Moniliasis, Yeast Infection, or Thrush.
One way to treat genital candidiasis in men is through anti-fungal medicines. Several anti-fungal medicines are available to help you treat genital candidiasis. Some medicines can be bought without a prescription and others need a prescription. It is best to consult your doctor to know the best treatment that will work for you.
Chronic Candidiasis is commonly found infection in men and women of the age ranging from 15 to 45. There are some infants and toddlers who also become victims of this yeast infection. If you ignore the primary stage symptoms of your Candida and leave it untreated for few days then it can become a serious chronic yeast infection.
The higher the level of Candidiasis the worse the symptoms will become. In the event of a vaginal yeast infection the woman will experience a thick white discharge that may contain lumps that has the look of cottage cheese. If a man has a yeast infection in his penis the foreskin will itch and become red. Both women and men will experience pain during sex and also during urination.
Candida Albicans is the main culprit behind yeast infection, and yet it is a normal flora in the gut of humans. The problem starts to exist when Candida Albicans population starts to boom and there is an overgrowth. The resulting condition would be Candidiasis. Candica Albicans can also affect different parts of the body resulting in skin rashes, oral thrush and other common form of skin infections.
Yeast infection in men is usually noticed on areas such as the penis, in the mouth and some other areas on the body. It usually attacks those areas of the skin that have folds and that don't get a chance to dry off. This fungal growth just loves areas which are not exposed to the sun and are wet and warm.
For men who suffer from penile Candida albicans infection, the most common sign is rashes and skin redness, particularly in the foreskin and the head of the penis. For women with vaginal Candidiasis, a white discharge that smells like bread is one of the more common symptoms. Menstrual irregularities and yeast vaginitis that recurs are also quite common.
