A healthy vagina naturally has a balance of yeast and bacteria. A yeast infection, also referred to as "monilia" or "candidiasis," occurs when that balance is disrupted and there is an overgrowth of yeast (candida). Yeast infection symptoms can include redness, itching and irritation in the vagina and vulva, pain or a burning sensation during sex and urination, and a thick discharge with a consistency similar to cottage cheese.

We always recommend speaking with your doctor before taking dietary supplements or using internal or topical treatments during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.  The vaginal health probiotic contains Inulin, which can cause gassiness, stomach cramping, diarrhea and even anaphylactic reaction (rarely) in some individuals. Discontinue use and speak with your doctor if you are experiencing bloating, stomach discomfort or diarrhea.
