Note that both male and female are been affected by candidiasis because the causation organism, which is a fungus is found on the skin,mouth, etc., of both men and women. Making it affect every individual regardless of ones sex. The reason why its so prevalent in women or females is that it is found in their vagina. This candida albicans in the vagina helps to maintain the natural microbial flora in the vagina, they do so with the help of a bacterial called lactobacillus acidophillus(these bacterial keeps the candida in check)

Causes
1. When you stress yourself your body releases cortisol (a hormone that depresses your immune system and raises your blood sugar level). Because the candida albicans are yeast they are able to ferment the sugar to produce alcohol and acids. This end product creates a hormonal imbalance creating a pathway for the individual in question to be baptized with candidiasis.
2.Using of soap around and inside the vagina.The vagina has pH within the range 4-4.5 which is an acidic environment. Soaps are made from potash and other components like sodium chloride, sodium palm kernel etc., making it alkaline in nature. This alkaline nature of soap changes the acidic environment of the vagina and also kills some of the natural bacterial in the vagina which keeps the candida yeast and the micro flora in there in check
3. Eating a lot of sugary foods. The sugar serves as a food for the yeast to feed on and overgrow.
4. Pregnancy
5. Antibiotics
6. Weak immune system and other cause candida albicans to baptize you with candidiasis. Any thing that compromise your immune system create an imbalance state.
How to prevent candidiasis

NOTE the blood that come out when menstruating cleans the place and do away with any bacterial or any organism that might cause a disease.)
- When you visit the toilet wipe your anus from the back because the rectal area is full of yeast which can get into your vagina to infect the unharmed ones to cause candidiasis.
