Vaginal Infections Thrush and Bacterial Vaginosis (BV)
While both thrush and bacterial vaginosis (BV) are very common, they’re two different types of infections and as such require different treatments. However, they are not always easy for women to identify.
What is Thrush and what can cause Thrush?
Yeast and bacteria are naturally present in your vagina. Thrush occurs when the level of Candida albicans increases.
You have a weakened immune system
Pregnancy (mainly during the third trimester)
When on your period
When taking certain medicines and antibiotics
If you have a medical condition like diabetes or HIV or if you are undergoing chemotherapy
Thrush is not an STI or a serious condition and in most cases, it can be treated easily and effectively. It is also normal and very common for 3 in 4 women to suffer from it at least once during their lifetime.
What is Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) and what causes it?
Bacterial vaginosis is an infection that affects your vagina, causing an unpleasant, fishy-smelling discharge. This happens when the natural balance of the bacteria in your vagina is disturbed.
Intercourse (especially if you have been with a new partner (BV is NOT an STI)
Using perfumed soaps and products (even scented toilet rolls) around the vagina.
If you use an IUD contraceptive device

Please note the cause of bacterial vaginosis is generally hard to pin down as a lot can cause it.
