Study Background
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the probiotic supplementation on the maintenance of healthy vaginal microbiota and pH over a 12-week period.
Previous studies have found that the probiotic supplementation showed a positive effect on changes in the human vaginal microbiota, by increasing Lactobacillus species.
