Miscarriage caused by candida / yeast infection?

The condition popularly known as candida is caused by the yeast candida albicans. This is a yeast that occurs naturally in the human digestive tract, but in exceptional cases can spread to other places in the body.

In the body it manifests itself as a fungal infection. This overgrowth, or candidiasis, is accompanied by a number of bothersome symptoms. One of these is the increased risk of miscarriage in pregnant women.

Candidiasis and reduced immunity
-
The overgrowth of the candida yeast and the development of a fungal infection is common in people who have a reduced resistance. This could be because they have another illness, such as AIDS, diabetes or cancer. In addition, taking drugs, alcohol or antibiotics can weaken the immune system. An unhealthy lifestyle that makes you not fit can also cause a reduced functioning of the immune system.

The first symptoms of the overgrowth are bloating, stomach pain and flatulence. The fungus can express itself in a number of different places after this first phase, in the mouth, on the skin (especially in the skin folds), on the nails and on the genitals. In female patients, the most common site of a candida infection is the vagina. Itching, a burning sensation and redness are common complaints.

Less miscarriages with antibiotics
-
A group of pregnant women with so-called abnormal vaginal flora was followed for this during their pregnancy. The vaginal flora can be easily identified with a smear.
-
Not all of the subjects suffered from candida overgrowth. Some also had other fungal infections or bacterial surpluses.
-
The group of women was divided in two, with half of the women receiving a placebo. The other half received a course of antibiotics in the second trimester of pregnancy. It turned out that miscarriages and premature births were significantly less common in the women who had the antibiotics.

Effect of the diet on candida during and after pregnancy
-
A healthy diet during pregnancy can reduce the risk of candida overgrowth. If you suffer from a downpour, it is important to go for options with as little sugar and processed foods as possible. Sugar, fast carbohydrates and manufactured fats are foods that the candida also feeds on. It is therefore important not to feed them.
-
In addition, food with less sugar, slow carbohydrates and vegetable or natural fats is also healthier for you and your unborn child.

A candida infection can also manifest itself in your nipples. If you want to breastfeed it is therefore important to cure the candida infection. During breastfeeding, a candida infection can cause you to suffer from stabbing pain. The use of antibiotics can also cause this problem. It is therefore important to adjust your diet if you have been on antibiotics to restore your gut flora as quickly as possible and to give yourself the right foods to make your body strong and healthy.
-
It is best to eat more vegetables, fruit, nuts and lean meat. When eating foods with carbohydrates, such as bread and pasta, it is best to go for the whole grain variety. Because of the fiber, the candida has less chance to feed on the sugars and carbohydrates that are in these healthy foods. In addition, you strengthen your immune system by eating healthy and your unborn child gets all the nutrients it needs to develop healthily.
Finally ...
-
Are you pregnant and do you suffer from the symptoms associated with a candida overgrowth? Then it is very important to go to your doctor to discuss this and not to adjust your diet first. Pregnancy is over in no time and it is best to intervene as soon as possible if something could go wrong. Candida overgrowth can certainly lead to miscarriage, but it doesn't always have to happen.
-
If you are in the process of becoming pregnant, it is therefore important to already adopt a healthy diet. That way, you are less likely to have to make adjustments during pregnancy.
-
In addition, a candida infection can also manifest itself in the nipples. This is very inconvenient if you want to breastfeed. After intervention with antibiotics, it is therefore important to follow a healthy diet to avoid additional complications after pregnancy for breastfeeding.
