Information On Yeast Infections
I am trying to find information about internal yeast infection as related to pancreas,thyroid,etc.?
My doctor tells me I have yeast growing on my pancreas,and internal organs. I don’t understand. Also says my thyroid is affected. Please tell me where to go on the internet for more information.
I have heard people getting yeast infection after the pancreas surgery, but not the other way around?! Are you sure what your Dr. refers to is vaginal yeast infection caused by Candida Albicans and NOT other fungal?
With regard to Thyroid, also I have heard that hypothyroidism can cause yeast infection. Check following URL for info in this regard:
Candida Yeast Infections May Be Involved in Many Conditions

I suggest you get a second opinion, and from a physician who cares enough to spend some time and explain your case in laymen language, as it appears your current physician has not done so.
Some general info on Yeast Infection:
Yeast infection usually is cause by over population of Candida Albicans in the vagina, rectum, and mouth. While it is known to be a women health issue, men also can contract a yeast infection, if they have unprotected sexual activity with a partner who has a yeast infection (NOTE: Yeast infection IS NOT a STD).
A yeast infection will not cause the women to miss her period. Actually the period should clear up any mild yeast infection, since fungal causing the infection (Candida Albicans) don’t like the PH created by menstrual bleeding.
Factors that may contribute to development of yeast infection are as follow:
•Antibiotic treatments (it is recommended while taking antibiotic to eat plain yogurt having “active Yeast” as one of its ingredients)
•Oral contraceptives
•Hot weather or non-ventilating clothing, which increase moisture and warmth, fostering fungal growth
•Repeated intercourse over a short period of time
•Stress
•Suppressed immune system (including HIV)
•High carbohydrate intake, especially refined sugars and alcohol
•Pregnancy
•Diabetes
•In cases, it has been observed that certain types of soaps, powders, new detergents, certain type of condoms, latex, and other products which cause irritation.
While there are many over counter medication to treat Yeast Infection, it is always advised to see a physician to ensure the symptoms are only yeast infection and nothing else. Note that there are other health problems, including a few STDs which have similar symptoms, thus they should be ruled out ASAP.
While yeast infections can cause severe discomfort and rarely cause serious health problems, recurring yeast infections may be difficult to prevent or cure, due to other underlying problems.
