😇There are a multitude of factors that influence fertility, one that is often overlooked is the vaginal microbiome. I recommend this for most women but I STRONGLY recommend it prior to embryo transfer. IVF is a significant physical, mental, emotional & financial investment & you want to ensure you are transferring your precious embryos into an optimal environment.💫
🤩The role of the vaginal microbiome is to maintain an acidic pH, maintain tissue health and integrity, fight of external infections/pathogens and protect the health of the cervix and uterus.🩸
⏳When things get out of balance, this is called vaginal dysbiosis, which put simply, most often means there is too much of the bad guys (opportunistic baterica, viruses, fungi) and not enough of the good guys - beneficial bacteria.🦠
🤰🏻A healthy vaginal microbiome supports good menstrual health and fertility.
A compromised vaginal microbiome can be associated with:
* difficulty conceiving
* Issues with embryo implantation
* Pregnancy loss/repeated pregnancy loss
* Premature labour
* Preterm birth
* UTIs
* Bacterial vaginosis
* Thrush
* PCOS
* Endometriosis
* Endometritis
* Adenomyosis
* And more
✨Luckily, there is plenty that can be done to help support returning a dysbiotic vaginal microbiome back into a more harmonious balance to support fertility as well as overall menstrual health & wellbeing.
