Product Information

Importantly, probiotics offer benefits specifically for women, such as supporting urinary tract and vaginal bacterial balance and protecting against bacterial infection. Jørgensen MR, et al. (2020). Lactobacillus rhamnosus strains of oral and vaginal origin show strong antifungal activity in vitro. During your reproductive years, from ages 15 to 49, your vaginal pH will typically be at or below 4.5. Before menstruation and after menopause, a healthy pH will be higher than 4.5. Your vagina naturally is home to different types of healthy, acid-producing bacteria. To prevent dryness and maintain a chemical balance, your vagina also regularly produces fluid. That fluid contains acids. For your gut health, you should be looking for Lactobacillus casei or Lactobacillus acidophilus which can help with constipation and bloating as it should restore your gut flora.

Vagina owners may benefit from prebiotics if they have BV or a yeast infection, thanks to the introduction of lactobacilli. But there isn’t a ton of concrete data that supports this. Studies have found that yeast and lactobacilli can coexist in the vagina, but also that lactobacilli can kill yeast. Recurrent vaginal candidiasis is not uncommon [ 73]. Although the medical treatment of vaginal candidiasis can relieve symptoms, the infection usually relapses after therapeutic drugs are terminated. Temporary and local suppression of cell-mediated immunity can lead to recurrent vaginitis [ 74]. Lymphocytes from many women with this disease have shown a reduced in vitro proliferative response to Candida albicans. It seems that the inhibitory effect is due to the increased production of prostaglandin E 2 in the patient’s macrophages [ 75], thereby inhibiting the production of interleukin 2, which prevents the proliferation of lymphocytes. W Has a low potential for abuse relative to those in schedule 4. Has a currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States. Abuse may lead to limited physical dependence or psychological dependence relative to those in schedule 4. M. A. Polewski, C. G.Krueger, J. D. Reed, and G. Leyer, “Ability of cranberry proanthocyanidins in combination with a probiotic formulation to inhibit in vitro invasion of gut epithelial cells by extra-intestinal pathogenic E. coli,” J. Funct. Foods, vol. 25, pp. 123-134,August 2016. Aside from helping balance out vaginal pH levels, pH balance pills will help maintain the best levels of unhealthy and healthy bacteria.Healthy gut bacteria feed on fiber and some other prebiotic foods, so experts recommend that people eat a diet rich in high-fiber foods such as fruits and vegetables. Companies may advertise that they have designed the probiotics for a specific purpose, such as digestive or vaginal health. However, probiotics have not been determined as universally safe or effective. It is much more important for an individual to support their overall health by focusing on diet and lifestyle as a whole rather than on taking one specific supplement. Wear the right clothing. Tight clothing can reduce air flow to your vagina and lead to vaginitis. Wear cotton underwear, looser-fitting pants, and tights with a cotton patch around your vaginal area.

Probiotics and vitamins for vaginal health may not be an effective solution for all, and you should consider taking such supplements only if you monitor your pH balance regularly and notice any imbalance. If you suspect your pH balance is not optimal, you can use vaginal pH test strips, such as the Vaginox pH test, for confirmation.PH is a measurement of how acidic or alkaline (”aka basic“) something is. The scale runs from 0 to 14. The pH balance of your vagina can help determine whether or not it’s healthy. A healthy vaginal pH level is between 3.8 and 4.5. However, a healthy pH level will vary based on your age. There are around 100 trillion probiotics in the human body (also known as good bacteria) going around our intestines and stomachs.
