If you're trying to conceive and have experienced recurrent miscarriage, unexplained infertility, or you're just desperate for answers your GP hasn’t given you, this episode is essential listening.
In this eye-opening mini-series edition of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, Bex and Laura welcome back fertility nutritionist Alison Hall to break down one of the most overlooked — but critical — factors in pregnancy outcomes: the vaginal microbiome.
💥 Did you know that up to 60% of second trimester miscarriages are linked to infection?
🧬 Or that many women with bacterial vaginosis (BV) have no symptoms at all, yet it can impact implantation and early pregnancy?
From Lactobacillus dominance to uterine microbiome testing, we deep dive into:
Alison also shares her personal journey with baby loss, how it led her into the world of functional fertility medicine, and why “just eat well” advice barely scratches the surface.
🔬 Whether you're undergoing IVF, have experienced chemical pregnancies, or simply want to understand your body better, this episode is packed with science-backed insights, empathy, and our usual dose of “we say what others won’t” real talk.
