Rectal yeast infection is caused by the same yeast infection that causes vaginal yeast infection. It’s harder to diagnose yourself than a vaginal infection. Only a doctor can tell you for sure if you have a rectal yeast infection and not another type of digestive disease.

There is a close relationship between anal candidiasis and oral candidiasis. As our digestive organ starts in the mouth and ends in the rectum, it is quite normal that they are closely related to each other.

Rectal candidiasis occurs when normal yeast bacteria are transformed due to favorable conditions to a fungal condition. The result is a systemic yeast and one of the effects could be anal candida. It is very important to understand this process of yeast-like fungus development, as it is important that you choose the right treatment. Otherwise, you will only treat the symptoms, not the root cause of your Candida Albicans, and you will develop a further recurrence of the yeast fungus.

Symptoms of candida of the rectum include itching and burning. You will usually notice thrush and soreness in your mouth as well. Other symptoms may not necessarily be caused by yeast, but are closely related: depression, mood swings, cravings for sweets and carbs, joint pain, etc. These are specific to a systemic candida condition.

To treat anal candidiasis, you need to kill the yeast fungus. This can be done with a total holistic approach and alternative candida remedies work very well to help you get better. I’m not saying that orthodox antifungal creams won’t work, it’s just that you have to put in more effort to achieve your goal. Also, following a candida diet will leave you free of yeast and better skin and hair and a slimmer figure.
