Candida glabrata vulvovaginal infections

Infection of Candida glabrata is becoming more common, with antifungal drug resistance.

Like all vulvovaginal yeast infections, a Candida glabrata infection in the vulvovaginal region is a result of yeast overgrowth from the gut. Accordingly, to prevent recurrence, the gut must be treated while also killing the infection in the vagina to give symptomatic relief.
