Abstract
Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is one of the most common vaginal infections, representing 40% to 50% of all cases of infectious vulvovaginitis. Between 70-75% of sexually active women experience at least one episode of VVC in their lifetime, and 8-10% of adult women have recurrent VVC. The treatment of VVC remains as one of the most pressing challenges of gynecology. The share of recurrent disease event rates remains high, despite the modern medicines used to treat various forms of VVC.
