Vaginal Balance

The vaginal microbiome refers to the delicate balance of bacteria and other microorganisms that naturally live in the vagina. A healthy vaginal microbiome is predominantly composed of Lactobacillus bacteria, which help maintain an acidic environment, protecting against infections and promoting overall vaginal health. Disruptions in this balance, caused by factors like stress, antibiotics, or hormonal changes, can lead to conditions such as yeast infections or bacterial vaginosis.
