Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Posted January 13, 2004 Hi .. sometimes the itchiness can be caused by a yeast infection .. even if you only have a very mild case, the itchy feeling can drive you nuts sometimes.. one way to help avoid it is to cut down on extra sugars .. yeast needs the sugars to feed on .. sugars can be controlled by cutting back on pasta, bread (white enriched bread is the worst), and anything with refined sugar (such as candy, icing on buns or cakes, sodas). If you are taking any kind of cortisteroid (prednisone), your likelyhood of getting a yeast infection doubles. just a thought .. Quote
