Question 1

Accepted Answer

Candidiasis: Yes, this can be a manifestation of immune deficiency and if difficult to treat and eradicate even more so. If you think you may have been infected with HIV go and get tested ASAP for that and other STDs.

Question 2

what are the symptoms of candida in men? can it be sexually transmitted ?

Accepted Answer

Superficial: Men may, but seldom do, develop mucocutaneous candidiasis, with red, itchy, painful rash with satellite lesions outside the irregularly shaped red areas.  Sexual transmission is unusual, but can occur.

Question 3

i think i was exposed to candida auris, how long would it take for symptoms of an infection to show up?

Accepted Answer

: Exposed in what manner? How do you know? If you have a normal immune system -- that is, if you are outwardly healthy with no serious health problems -- there is almost no chance you'll have a problem with C. auris. Serious infections are almost entirely limited to people with serious underlying health problems or immune deficiency.

Question 4

how do i get tested for candida overgrowth? i have symptoms, but it is not visible.

Accepted Answer

Why ever?: The idea of candida overgrowth is a myth. The yeast is a common occupant of the intestines and is as much as 5% of the dry weight of your poo.I have seen some mega labs, one specifically, that advertises their test of submitted stools samples for their "normals" and advises folks to seek treatment.They always suggest you repeat the test $$$ to be sure you are better.

Question 5

what is candida ab igg and how is it contracted? what are the symptoms of candida ab igg? and how do you treat it? what is the prognosis?

Accepted Answer

Candida spp.: Candida is a yeast-like fungus. The antibody (Ab) to this is formed by elements of your immune system and the particular antibody to which you are referring is an immunoglobulin G (IgG). This is not a disease and these results alone don't need treatment. Discuss this with the doctor who ordered the test. Best wishes.
