We have Candida all over and in our bodies, including in our mouths. Only when there's an overgrowth of the Candida population that it becomes an issue. An imbalance in the immune system, an immature immune system, and/or a disruption in the balance of the bacteria populations are the most common causes of the development of thrush

In most cases, you can treat mild to moderate thrush infections at home. You should see an improvement in nipple /breast pain within 5-7 days of starting the natural remedies.
