This yeast normally lives in your body quite happily without doing you any harm. But when the natural pH balance of your vagina is upset - which can easily happen - Candida can multiply. And that's when you may start to itch and develop thrush.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho gets thrush?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDon't worry or be embarrassed about having thrush, as thrush is much more common than you might think - 3 out of 4 women have it at some point in their lives, especially if they are under the age of 20 or pregnant, and it is commonly suffered around the time of a period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMen are not immune. They can get thrush too, though only a few develop the rash and itchiness. Most male sufferers act as carriers, without actually having the symptoms.
