Thrush is a yeast infection, so it's not for certain but likely that she is dealing with a yeast infection. It's a bit of a controversial issue, but people can be 'comprehensively' infected with yeast resulting in disorders of various manifestations. One solution is diflucan which is a pill that will pretty effectively 'clean' your system of yeast.
The problem is that it is very easy to become infected again. For instance, it is very common for men who have sex with women susceptible to yeast, to become carriers who will re-infect their partners after a course of medication clears it up. So sometimes it is necessary for you both to be treated. It's very important to change your bed sheets often and wash your underwear in hot water. Not to wear pantyhose or nylon panties (only cotton).
The fungus that causes yeast infections is very common in the body, but for some of us (including me) our bodies either have a low tolerance or we have been compromised in some way. Sometimes due to a course of antibiotics or a weakened immune system.
