Yeast infections (candidiasis) are one of the most common types of vaginal infections . A yeast infection is caused by Candida, a fungus found in the normal vagina. However, when the balance of bacteria and yeast in the vagina is disturbed, the yeast may overgrow and cause symptoms.
Candida overgrowth can stem from a number of factors. But, if you’re under stress for a prolonged period of time like many of us during the holidays, the body may begin to produce increased levels of cortisol, a hormone that can weaken the immune system, and simultaneously cause elevated levels of blood sugar. And, since yeast feeds off of sugar, candida is able to grow faster than normal. While Mrs. Claus means well, stress gets the best of us and we get carried away baking one batch of cookies too many.
The most common symptoms of a yeast infection are:
Bah humbug! If you have some or all of these symptoms, we encourage you to come see us so we can make an accurate diagnosis and identify the best treatment options for fast relief. While over-the-counter treatments are safe and often effective in treating yeast infections, the concentration of antibiotic may not be sufficient for your level of candida overgrowth.
De-stress and get back to the season of cheer and merriment by making an appointment with Cheyenne Women’s Clinic today!

Women helping women fight yeast infections
Being under stress for a prolonged period of time can significantly lower your body’s immunity and therefore make you more susceptible to yeast infections . But how exactly does it happen?
When you’re under stress your body starts producing hormones that affect your health, the longer you’re under stress, the stronger the effect it can have on your body. There are three main stress-related hormones: cortisol, estrogen, adrenaline and norepinephrine. I’ll discuss each of them and their potential links to yeast infections.
There are many things you can do to reduce the damaging effect of stress on your immune system and keep Candida at bay:
By following these tips you can make your immune system stronger and your body more able to naturally defend itself not only from yeast infections but also from harmful bacteria and viruses.
It’s also important to try to keep your immune system strong once you happen to get a vaginal yeast infection. It will help you to get rid of it quicker and enhance your treatment, whether you choose medication or natural remedies .
I’m interested to hear about your experiences. Do you feel that stress triggers your yeast infections? What are your ways of dealing with stress? Do you do anything to boost your immune system? Please share your thoughts in the comment section below.
I had been going through a rough patch in life. Was cheated on, let myself go, and was going through bodily changes I was not prepared for aka “One bad ass Yeast Infection” which threw my world further down. I had to get myself checked, I didn’t know what was wrong with me.
I thought I had gotten an STD from my cheating partner. But no, the Doc tells me it’s Yeast Infection. Go figure, but it was a relief. Now the problem was curing it. The Doc gave me a cream to insert up my “woohaa”, and I had to insert It for 7 days. On the 7th day, I thought I was golden, hadn’t seen any sign of it, next day, BAM back again. Wtf.
I found the Lady Soma Candida Cleanse. I wasn’t even skeptical at this point, I was DESPERATE. I needed a cure and I went for it. 1-2 weeks into taking two pills faithfully every day, my woohaa has cleared up. I have finally seen something positive. And my confidence has come back. Cause no one wants a bad woohaa. A bad woohaa means no woohoo. So I am very determined to continue taking these pills, and getting my life back on track.
I want to make a note that Apple Cider Vinegar helps combat yeast infections, which I add 1 tbsp to a glass or cup of water daily, and taking a multi vitamin every day doesn’t hurt either.
Robin, I’m so glad you managed to get rid of your yeast infection for good. I’ll look into Lady Soma Candida Cleanse, I’ve never used it myself, but I’m really happy it worked. On the side note, I love “A bad woohaa means no woohoo”, just brilliant! It should be the tagline of my website. I wish you all the best and I hope that your yeast infection will never come back.
I had never really considered that stress can cause a yeast infection, but now that you mention it, it does make sense. When we are stressed, our whole system suffers, so I can see that with a weaker immune system it is easier for the candida yeast to develop and get out of control. Do you think, therefore, that regular meditation could be one of the things a person can do to prevent or even cure a yeast infection?
Hi Marcus, thanks for commenting. A recent study on the effect of meditation on cortisol levels shows that it can lower the cortisol levels in the blood, so it does reduce stress and stress-related diseases, such as heart disease, migraine and yeast infection. I don’t know how come I didn’t include meditation in the stress relieving techniques, I’ll have to update this article soon!
Thanks again for providing great information on how to reduce stress. I’m a little confused about the function of cortisol in the body. It seems it can be very good or very bad. Some people say that it keeps the body from releasing various substances that might cause inflammation.
Yet, other people say that cortisol can weaken the immune system. Experts say that when people get stressed out, cortisol levels go up but that too much of it over a long period of time can actually damage the production of muscle and bone cells. How can we tell if cortisol levels are too high?
And like I said before, learning to control stress is extremely important for optimal body health even when infections are not an issue. Thanks for sharing. John
Thanks for commenting John. You’re right that a temporary cortisol boost is beneficial for us, however when we’re under chronic stress and cortisol levels are constantly too high, it can affect our health in a negative way. It lowers our defenses and makes us more susceptible to infections, such as a yeast infection.
Thanks for the excellent post. I think learning ways to reduce stress are vital whether or not the issue of yeast infections are involved so I appreciate the information. It’s always helpful to learn natural remedies to keep the body healthy!
HI John, I’m glad you found some useful info about how to reduce stress. It definitely provides numerous health benefits apart from helping avoid yeast infections. Thank you for your feedback!
I actually came across your article while researching yeast infections of the skin as I suffer from this from time to time. Not thrush, but fungus yeast infections of primarily the back and chest areas, leaving either white or brown spots on the skin.
I’ve browsed your website and it actually contains good information on various remedies and products that I think I might try. You have a great site here.
Hi Darren, you’re right, the natural remedies I discuss on this website have great antifungal properties and can be used for all sorts of fungal infections, not only vaginal yeast infections. I’m glad you found some useful info here, good luck with your treatment!
Just came across this site and found a lot of helpful knowledge about yeast infection in women. You laid well all the information about how stress triggers yeast infection. I definitely agree with you about how stress related hormones have connection with this vaginal infection. And I believe if this infection is not treated, it may lead to serious problems. Your tips on boosting immune system I think are effective to avoid stress. Maybe I sometimrs have this infection, but not too serious. I will follow some of your tips so I can prevent this infection. Prevention is better than curing.
Hi Marcy, I’m glad you found some helpful information on my website. Sometimes we don’t realize how harmful stress is to our health, in this article I focused only on yeast infections, but there are so many other health issues that stress can trigger.

STOCKHOLM, Oct. 31 - Women with recurrent yeast infections appear to have lower-than-normal morning levels of salivary cortisol, a sign of stress that could indicate an increased vulnerability to candida, according to a pilot study.
On the other hand, the Karolinska Institute investigators conceded, it could be that recurrent yeast infections produce chronic stress.
The investigators found that among 35 women with recurrent vulvovaginal candida, morning cortisol levels from saliva samples were significantly lower (P<.002 during the first minutes after waking up compared with women who did not have frequent yeast infections. class="mpt-action-points-container open" data-collaspeable-content="false">
These women may be more vulnerable to recurrent candida vulvovaginosis and other infections because chronic stress impairs immunity, explained a research team led by Sophia M. Ehrström, M.D., and colleagues reported in the October issue of American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Although cortisol typically rises in the morning, paradoxically, a lethargic cortisol level at that time of day could indicate chronic stress, the authors said.
The recurrent yeast infection group reported more genital infections overall. For example, the study also found 53% percent of the recurrent yeast infection group reported a history of bacterial vaginosis infection versus 9% among the controls, (95% confidence interval, 2.7-72.5, P<.001 and reported a history of condyloma versus in the control group ci p>
However, they wrote, infection "is a condition per se that may produce chronic stress." The annoying symptoms of yeast infection, such as the repetitive itching, for example, may interfere with daily function and even sex, which could then impact relationships, they said.
The study compared two groups of women with a mean age of 27 and who had no significant differences in body mass index or median age at first sexual intercourse. The women were asked to answer a questionnaire to provide details about their lifestyle, sexual behavior, and past medical history, including whether they used oral contraceptives. All 35 patients with recurrent yeast infections had experienced a minimum of four yeast infections in the past year.
All of the women underwent an examination of the vulva and vagina. The research team collected vaginal samples for fungal cultures. The women also provided blood samples on days five and 11 of their menstrual cycles to have their hormone levels measured.
The night before the saliva samples were collected, the women were advised not to drink, eat, brush their teeth or smoke. Each participant received cotton wool swabs called Salivettes. On the day of collection, the participants chewed a Salivette for 40 seconds to boost salivary flow. They did this upon awakening and then 15 minutes after waking up, again at 30 minutes and 45 minutes. They were instructed to store the chewed swabs in the freezer until they had to bring them to the hospital. These were the samples used to measure morning cortisol levels.
In addition to lower morning cortisol levels, the yeast infection patients also reported more gastrointestinal problems, including flatulence (60% vs. 14% in the controls, P<.001 and gastritis vs. respectively p=".02)." the authors said earlier studies have linked gastrointestinal symptoms with stress.>
Compared with the controls, the participants with recurrent yeast infections had significantly lower cortisol levels 15 minutes after awakening (P=.01), at a half hour (P=.001) and also at 45 minutes (P=.01). Although oral contraceptive use has previously been associated with a propensity for yeast infections, the authors found birth control pills made no significant difference.
None of the study participants were in the luteal phase at the time of the blood sample collection. The researchers found no significant differences in levels of glycosylated hemoglobulin, sexual hormone-binding globulin, dihydroepiandrosterone, testosterone, cholesterol, or thyroid-stimulating hormone.
Dr. Ehrström and her team acknowledged that while their study sample was small and relied on some self-reported information, "the results of our study show that chronic stress may play a role in the pathogenesis of recurrent candid vulvovaginitis." They said more study is needed to flesh out any potential relationship between the two factors.
Yvonne S. Thornton, M.D., a professor of clinical obstetrics at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York, was not impressed.
"The data were poorly gathered and you cannot come to a conclusion that when you're stressed you're going to have an increased risk to vaginal yeast infections," Dr. Thornton said in an interview.
Too few variables were controlled, Dr. Thornton said. For example, it's unclear whether the participants were early-bird risers or late-risers, which could affect their cortisol levels, she said. Also, considering that yeast infection is so common, the study sample could have easily been much larger, which could have yielded clearer results, Dr. Thornton said.
"There are just too many confounding variables," she said. The study "has no applicability to the general population."

Stress and its negative effects on the digestive system have long been known. Of course most people, even if they do not concern themselves with the finer details, are already aware of this. A quick trip to the dentist or an important job interview is usually enough to stress us out at least to the point we get ‘butterflies’ in the stomach and convince us that anxiety and the gut are inextricably intertwined.

Before I continue with this article, you should know I've recently compiled a list of science-backed ways to get rid of candida yeast infections. You can download my free Candida Report here if you haven't yet.

Although there are many stress factors which negatively impact our digestive system , one issue which is attracting increasing attention is that of the enteric nervous system. This is the third arm of the autonomic nervous system which is becoming known as the second brain. Although many of us are used to hearing about the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, we now know that the gut has a system of its own which is completely outside of our conscious control and which is also highly sensitive to stress. This is the system which, if we get scared or upset, can send us running for the nearest restroom, so never doubt the impact stress can have on our ‘second brain!’
I have done video series of how stress and candida are connected which you can watch here:
What we also know is that different stressors impact the digestive tract and can either trigger a Candida overgrowth or ensure that it remains established, so here are a few tips to keep your digestive tract in good condition and help eliminate yeast and bacterial overgrowth:
