Why is strengthening the vaginal microbiome important when trying to conceive?
The vagina consists of living microorganisms like the gut - mainly the 'good' Lactobacillus bacteria to keep the environment healthy.
Recent studies suggest that these microorganisms could influence the outcome of assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF. The type of microorganisms present in the uterus at embryo transfer may also affect the pregnancy outcome.
While we don't fully understand yet, the impact of the diet is less clear at this stage. There are many ways to help optimise your vaginal microbiome⤵️.
✔️Reducing the intake of unhealthy fats
✔️Eat more probiotic- and prebiotic-rich foods
✔️Switch to low GI food choices
✔️Increase antioxidants foods such as vitamin E, C and A
✔️Maintaining optimum vitamin D level
