Thrush

I am 80+. Many years ago I was prescribed Folic Acid by my Doctor. I moved address and my new Doctor was unsure if I still needed it. I recently stopped taking folic but I developed thrush. Was wondering if this could be linked. Any ideas please.

I don't know about Folic acid but I do know that if you have been on antibiotics recently this can definitely encourage the growth of Thrush..but ask your Dr about the folic acid.
