What are Probiotics?

Probiotics are supplements, like vitamins and minerals, taken to boost overall health. They consist of strains of bacteria that balance out “bad” pathogenic strains and may support one or more of the following:

  • Immune function
  • Weight loss
  • Acne
  • Digestion
  • Inflammation
  • Repeat chronic infections
  • Mood swings and more

Most probiotic products on the market in the form of liquid, powder, capsules, and even dairy products are not protected as they travel through the upper GI tract, meaning you are really not receiving any of the marketed benefits. The probiotic formulation we have chosen to provide in-office has a 60% probiotic survival rate past stomach acids, versus 4% of plain capsule probiotics.

How are probiotics applied to gynecologic care?

Like the gut microbiome, your vagina has its own pH and microfloral balance. Every lifestyle habit from smoking to body wash choice can affect whether a certain bacterial species will predominate. Some types of bacteria never cause problems, some only cause problems when conditions allow them to overpopulate the urogenital tract, and other invaders cause symptoms even in small concentrations.

Many species fall under the second category and “good bacteria”, or protective species, fall into the first because they prevent overgrowth of opportunistic pathogens. Taking a daily probiotic supplement, especially one formulated with strains found naturally in the urogenital tract will help ward off infection, create a healthy vaginal canal for birth, promote proper nutrient absorption, and maintain a normal pH.

Dr. Sodhi will recommend integrative medicinals and supplements, if appropriate, to help any recurrent infections in addition to standard care.
