Where is yeast found in the body?

Yeast is a type of fungus that can be found in various parts of the body, including the skin, mouth, gut, and vagina. In healthy individuals, yeast is present in small amounts and does not cause any problems. However, under certain conditions such as weakened immune system, use of antibiotics, or hormonal changes, the overgrowth of yeast can lead to infections such as oral thrush, vaginal yeast infections, and systemic candidiasis.
