Pathogens, such as yeast, viruses or bacteria can cause vaginal infections.

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most common vaginal infection, followed by vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), which is a yeast infection in the vagina.

Both of these infections occur when there is an overgrowth of predominantly anaerobic and pathogenic microbes, in the vagina, leading to a reduction in healthy lactobacilli populations.

High lactobacilli is the mark of a healthy vaginal microbiota. Friendly bacteria (lactobacilli) produce help maintain an optimal pH and a healthy balance of beneficial microorganisms in the vagina by excluding harmful bacteria and other pathogens.

Clinical research has found that the use of specific lactobacilli strains restore and maintain a healthy vaginal microbiota by building up the good bacteria and preventing an overgrowth of bad bacteria, ultimately preventing BV and VVC.
