Yeast infections are not fun, but unfortunately, most women experience one sooner or later. They can be both painful and unpleasant, but thankfully with the right treatment they can be over before you know it.

Yeast infections can strike pretty much anyone — not just women. You might not realize it, but men can come down with them as well according to Healthline.
Even babies can get yeast infections, according to Baby Center. And they have a lot of different potential causes.

Vaginal yeast infections cause irritation, itching, swelling, and discharge. Most women will get an infection at least once in their life.
Vaginal yeast infections, also known as candidiasis, are a common female condition. A healthy vagina has bacteria and some yeast cells. But when the balance of bacteria and yeast changes, the yeast cells can multiply. This causes intense itching, swelling, and irritation.
Treating a vaginal yeast infection can relieve symptoms within a few days. In more severe cases, it may take up to two weeks.
Vaginal yeast infections aren’t considered a sexually transmitted infection (STI). Sexual contact can spread it, but women who aren’t sexually active can also get them. Once you get a yeast infection, you’re also more likely to get another one.
