Vaginal Thrush


  • Vaginal itch, burning or soreness and characteristic discharge?
  • Should I use an oral tablet?
  • A three day or six day cream?
  • It keeps coming back


Remember 'All that itches is not necessarily thrush'.


Come in and speak to one of our pharmacists or CLICK HERE to readh more.

Vaginal Thrush is an infection caused usually by a micro-organism called Candida albicans, although other Candida species like Candidia glabrata, can also be involved.


Candida in small numbers can exist in the vagina without necessarily causing problems but when numbers increase for whatever reason, symptoms of vaginal thrush can occur. Self-diagnosis is unreliable but symptoms of infection can include itching and soreness in and around the vagina and often accompanied by a white thick odourless discharge.


Thrush is uncommon before puberty and after menopause if there are no underlying risk factors. Common risk factors include:

  • ​antibiotic use
  • diabetes
  • pregnancy
  • weakened immune system


Before starting treatment, it is important to ensure that other causes like bacterial vaginosis, dermatological conditions or local irritants are excluded as the cause.


We have both male and female pharmacists who can speak to you in a private, confidential environment about thrush.
