Product Information
The genito-urinary tract contains its own microbiome, which requires a health balance of bacteria to support health in this area of the body.
The genito-urinary tract comprises both the urinary tract and the vaginal tract and both contain a microbiome (bacteria) in the same way as the gastrointestinal tract. Lactobacillus is the primary bacteria species found in the vagina of healthy women and the growth of too many other strains can lead to an imbalance in the natural bacteria of the vagina.
This bacterial balance may be affected by a number of factors, including hormonal changes (particularly menopause), menstruation, childbirth, gut bacteria, sexual activity, contraceptives, and antibiotics.
Multi-strain live bacteria, including three Lactobacillus strains
ProVen For Women contains three Lactobacillus strains – two Lactobacillus acidophilus strains and Lactobacillus gasseri, which is a key part of the vaginal flora.
Each one-a-day capsule contains 17.5 billion live bacteria, combining the Lab4 consortium of bacteria with Lactobacillus gasseri. Each capsule also contains cranberry extract and vitamin B6, which contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity.
