Candidiasis is the second most common cause of vaginal irritation or vaginitis.
In people who have healthy immune systems, candidiasis can usually only be found in exposed and moist parts of the body, such as:- the mouth or throat (oral thrush)
- the vagina (vaginal candidiasis or thrush)
- folds of skin in the diaper area (diaper rash)
Candidiasis can also occur on the male genitals, particularly in uncircumcised men.
