peer agreement (net): +1イースト感染症, カンジダ（性）膣炎 Explanation: "yeast infection" is not "イースト伝染", but "イースト感染症". It is the infection, in particular, in the vagina. It is also called "candidiasis", which is a more formal name, and you may translate it as "カンジダ（性）膣炎". In fact, "カンジダ（性）膣炎" is a more general term for this disease.

| yeast infection カンジダ膣炎（カンジダ症）/イースト菌感染症 Explanation: I'm a bit hesitant to explain this. "Yeast infection" usually refer to "カンジダ膣炎/カンジダ症" (Candida albicans vaginitis/Candidiasis), which is one of sexually transmitted diseases caused by Yeast infection. http://www.city.naze.kagoshima.jp/HouseCall/encyc/123/63/94_... http://www.geocities.co.jp/HeartLand-Yurinoki/7368/std.htm The link below is a case explaining yeast infection as sexually transmitted disease: http://www.healthac.org/shortguides/shortguide_japanese.pdf Also, I didn't know about this, but it seems that it is refererd to other disease as explained in the link below (I don't think it's common, though): http://www.geocities.co.jp/Beautycare/2812/diet/familydiet1.... I don't know whether you mean the first one or second one (I have a slight doubt about the second meaning.), but I think you can tell from context. |
