Hello & Welcome To The Podcast!

Today, I'm joined by Eleanor & Jess from PelvicRelief where we'll be discussing all things microbiome and pelvic health, in conditions like fertility, UTIs, and menopausal health. We also explored the role of diet, probiotics, and specific Lactobacillus strains in maintaining vaginal health, and the challenges of prescribing beneficial supplements, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis and treatment.

We discussed the challenges and distressing nature of recurrent UTIs and other vulvovaginal infections, emphasizing the need for effective & multi-modal solutions to manage these conditions

We talked about the vaginal microbiome, emphasizing the importance of Lactobacillus dominance for maintaining an acidic environment, and explored common imbalances like bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections, and their potential impact on fertility and overall health.

The conversation highlights the role of estrogen in maintaining vaginal health, particularly during peri-menopause and post-menopause. Jess and Eleanor stressed the importance of accurate diagnosis and treatment, cautioning against overuse of over-the-counter medications. The discussion also touches on the relationship between the bladder and vaginal microbiomes, and the impact of cancer treatments on vaginal health, and much more!
