During a yeast infection, discharge may become thicker and whiter because the vagina is shedding more epithelial and Candida cells.

在酵母菌感染期间，由于阴道脱落更多的上皮和念珠菌，泌物可会稠。

And when the balance within the vagina is disrupted— like the pH increases or there are fewer microbes to compete with— Candida albicans may assume their disease-causing forms.

当阴道内的平衡被破坏时— — 比如 pH 值升高或与之竞争的微生物减少— —色念珠菌可会呈现出它们的致病形式。
