Who are likely candidates to have thrush?
Since thrush is found in the bowel, women who regularly wear tight pants or jeans can be more susceptible to vaginal thrush infections. A baby who has oral thrush can also transfer the yeast to the mother’s breast by breastfeeding. Pregnant women and women who use vaginal deodorants that cause irritation are more susceptible to thrush.
