Pregnancy
An increased estrogen level in the body of a pregnant woman can affect the average balance of yeast and bacteria in the vagina. Hence, this may lead to the overgrowth of yeast. According to the American Family Physician [3], around three out of every four women may have a minimum of one yeast infection in their lifetime, which could be due to pregnancy.
Generally, pregnancy affects all the parts of the body system. Apart from its effect on the immune system, pregnancy could influence the kidneys’ functioning by making them produce more urine. Some pregnant women may experience Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) as well.
