Nyvigan

Vulvovaginal candidiasis is an infection of the estrogenised vagina and vestibulum which can also extend to the outer sides of the labia minora, the labia majora, the intercrural-region and the perianal region.

75% of women are affected at least once during their lifetime es. 90% of those affected are considered uncomplicated and Candida (fungus) is the cause.

Resistance to Candida treatment is a major and growing problem, a sharp increase has been seen in recent decades.
