4. Lowered Immune System
A lowered immune system can sometimes be an accompanying symptom of having developed oral thrush, and in some cases, a compromised immune system might even contribute to what helped you to contract oral thrush in the first place. A lowered immune system can sometimes be hard to test for on its own due to the varying different disorders that can cause it, but the condition can often accompany other conditions that are known to compromise the immunity, such as cancer or HIV – sometimes vitamin or dietary deficiencies can also help to cause a lowered immune system.
When your immune system is at a lower point than usual, you will be more likely to develop infections – and you might be much more prone to develop oral thrush as a recurring condition.
Seeing your doctor is important so that the cause of the recurring condition can be found, diagnosed and adequately treated.
