Potential causes of Thrush

Thrush is often caused by factors that disrupt the natural balance of microorganisms in the body, such as taking antibiotics, having a weakened immune system, or having certain medical conditions like diabetes. Other risk factors for thrush include poor oral hygiene, wearing dentures, smoking, and undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy. 

Additionally, infants can develop thrush if they pass through the birth canal of a mother with a yeast infection. Understanding the potential causes of thrush is important for taking preventive measures to reduce the risk of developing the condition.
