Abstract: Incidence of vaginitis due to Candida albicans confirmed by culture was 46 of 496 (9.3%) French women taking contraceptive pills. The women had used pills for a total of 5198 cycles, in which 1991 were combined lynestrenol-mestranol, 804 were norethynodrel, 525 were ethynodiol and 473 were norethisterone combinations. The study group varied widely in age, economic class, marital status and parity, but no relationship could be found between yeast infection and age, parity, marital status, miscarriages or product used. This 9.3% incidence is about the same as that in healthy women not using pills. The authors thought that virulence was increased in these pill users, although all responded to local treatment without recurrence.
