Podcasts about Bacterial vaginosis

In today's episode, I interview my beautiful client Damaris, who shares her fertility journey from experiencing two miscarriages to becoming naturally pregnant at 37 through a holistic approach to her health. Her story involves underlying issues with chronic bacterial vaginosis, compromised gut health which led to hormonal imbalances. Her story emphasizes the importance of personalized care, self-advocacy, and a comprehensive approach to fertility that goes beyond traditional medical treatments. Through patience, targeted interventions, and trusting the process, Damaris was able to overcome her fertility challenges and finally achieve a healthy natural pregnancy at 37.  Episode Highlights: Damaris, an ICU nurse, opens up about her journey through two miscarriages and now being 20 weeks pregnant. She reveals how chronic bacterial vaginosis was dismissed by doctors but deeply affected her fertility. A surprising gut health discovery changes everything; learn how she uncovered hidden issues and what helped her heal. From being clueless about cycle tracking to mastering her fertile window, Damaris shares the eye-opening lessons that transformed her understanding of her body. Facing low AMH and considering IVF, she found unexpected encouragement to explore natural fertility methods. Tune in for a heartfelt reflection on trusting intuition, personalized coaching, and the path that led to her pregnancy.

A new groundbreaking study has found that the most common vaginal infection bacterial vaginosis (BV) is actually an STI. This is huge news! Especially if you're someone who keeps getting BV again and again. In this ep, Dee chats to the two lead researchers behind the study Professor Cat Bradshaw and Dr Lenka Vodstrcil to find out everything we need to know. SHOW NOTES:Professor Cat and Dr Lenka's studyBV resources DM us your thoughts, questions, topics, or to just vent at @triplejthehookup on IG or email us: thehookup@abc.net.auThe Hook Up is an ABC podcast, produced by triple j.

We've talked before about how women's health issues are often overlooked, but new research is challenging what we thought we knew about bacterial vaginosis (BV). What if BV is actually an STI?For years, we've treated bacterial vaginosis as a frustrating yet common vaginal infection. But new research suggests BV may actually be sexually transmitted — and that changes everything.In this episode, I dive into a groundbreaking study from the New England Journal of Medicine that reveals treating a woman's partner with antibiotics may reduce BV recurrence. This finding has huge implications for how we diagnose and manage this condition, especially since BV is linked to serious complications like infertility, preterm labor, and increased risk of other infections.I also unpack why the feminine hygiene industry continues to prey on women's insecurities — selling products that often do more harm than good. While some vaginal health products may seem promising, they can upset your vaginal microbiome, potentially increasing your risk of infections like BV.Finally, I break down practical strategies for preventing and treating recurrent BV, from partner treatment to emerging solutions like boric acid suppositories and innovative medications designed to break down stubborn bacterial biofilms.If you've struggled with recurring BV or want to know how to better advocate for your vaginal health, this episode is packed with actionable insights.Highlights:New research showing BV may be sexually transmittedWhy treating male partners could reduce BV recurrenceThe dangers of feminine hygiene products that disrupt vaginal healthThe role of boric acid in breaking down stubborn biofilmsWhy vaginal health products often target women's insecurities — and what to watch out forIf this episode gave you a new perspective, please like, subscribe, and leave a review on Apple Podcasts.

For women who get bacterial vaginosis or BV, a common condition that can cause a fishy-smelling discharge, many will get it again (and again).Why some people were prone to recurrent BV was a mystery … until now. Australian researchers have shown that BV-related bugs can be sexually transmitted, and treating male partners significantly cuts recurrence rates.

Join me, Lizzie Alexander, the host of the Endo Fertility podcast, as I talk about the importance of maintaining a healthy vagina, the role of hormones like estrogen, and how conditions such as endometriosis and infections can affect vaginal health. We provide insights and actionable tips to help you take charge of your reproductive health. EPISODES HIGHLIGHT: The significance of a healthy vaginal microbiome and its role in preventing infections.

Symptoms indicating potential issues with vaginal health, such as itching, burning sensations, and unusual discharge. The relationship between hormonal changes, pregnancy, and vaginal health. RESOURCES MENTIONED: pH Testing Kits: Available at pharmacies or online, these kits help monitor your vaginal pH levels throughout your menstrual cycle. Be sure to buy a pH range of 3.5 up to 6.5+.

In this episode of the Stellar Cycles Podcast, we tackle those "itchy" and often taboo topics surrounding women's health that many shy away from discussing. We'll deconstruct the myths that these are "dirty" conditions and should be kept quiet. There is a lot of misinformation and misunderstanding around these issues, so my goal is to shed light on the differences between these conditions, their origins, and how we can heal and prevent them. As these issues affect the majority of women, it's time we stop shaming each other and start talking openly. The truth is, the vagina is a sensitive area, making women more prone to certain conditions than men. But don't worry—there's plenty to learn that can make managing these issues easier. Please note that this episode is based on my own experiences and research. Always seek the advice and treatment of your doctor for any medical conditions. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more women's health and wellness tips! Download our FREE phasic foods grocery guide here!

Rachel E. Gross is an award-winning science journalist who wrote an incredible book called Vagina Obscura which was a finalist for the 2023 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction. Go ahead and be impressed, but do not be intimidated. Rachel will enthrall you with stories of outlandish treatments for ailments that plague people with female reproductive systems, including a personal tale involving rat poison and her own vagina. She takes us back through history to when the fallopian tubes were named after an Italian Catholic priest and when Freud decided that all "women's issues" were psychological. She discusses how medical terminology can be harmful, placing blame on the woman or the body part itself. If that's not enough to draw you in, listen as we realize that both Ellie and Julia know a ton about bacterial vaginosis, and in a delightful epiphany, Ellie gives the perfect name to the wall of vagina-inspired art in Rachel's home.
