What You Don't Know About Your Intimate Flora
DID YOU KNOW...
You are probably neglecting your vaginal health - exposing yourself to a vast array of infections! Lots of us are guilty of neglecting their intimate well-being and paying little to no attention to their intimate flora. Many women suffer from repeated infections of thrush and cystitis. This is because they're unknowingly neglecting to take care of their intimate health! There are plenty of medications available to treat the symptoms of these painful conditions. Creams, antibiotics and pessaries can help, but how much do you know about more natural solutions?
Why do women get these conditions?
Thrush is caused by the yeast candida albicans which normally lives harmlessly on your skin, mouth, gut and vagina. When this yeast becomes overgrown, thrush occurs. The onset of bacterial vaginosis is caused by a similar process which involves a change in the vaginal flora coupled with a more alkaline pH. Painful cystitis is caused by bacterial infections. All of these irritating conditions can occur in any woman, but are most common in menopausal women due to hormone levels dropping.
Prevent thrush with natural remedies
By taking care of your intimate well-being naturally, you can ensure that you don’t suffer from these conditions. It's definitely possible to drastically minimise your chances of getting these conditions if you know how. It’s all about the GOOD BACTERIA! Ever heard that your vagina is ‘self-cleaning’? Well this is true and it’s down to your vaginal flora! Your vaginal flora helps to protect you from infections and keeps your vagina clean and healthy. When the friendly, beneficial bacteria (lactobacilli) in the vagina is concentrated candida can flourish, creating all of the unpleasant symptoms you know and dread. From irritating itching to a burning sensation, discoloured discharge and stinging. This can happen due to ill health, medications, antibiotics, soap, swimming or hormonal changes.
Conventional treatments do successfully kill off the candida, but they can have a negative effect on your vaginal flora which can make repeat infections likely.
Multi-Gyn FloraPlus is a safe, natural and effective treatment for thrush. It's different to your usual treatments because it works in harmony with your body’s natural flora. FloraPlus contains 40% 2QR which regulates your pH balance, making the vagina more acidic and creating a protective blockade against harmful microbes and bacteria.
FloraPlus also contains selective prebiotics. These prebiotics help nourish the good bacteria. These good bacteria LOVE this and release lactic acid, which naturally maintains the slightly acidic pH of a healthy vagina. This will help to ensure that thrush doesn’t get out of control.
By using a natural treatment such as FloraPlus on a regular basis you'll be creating an optimum vaginal environment. Keeping your intimate flora balanced, healthy and happy!
