You may be used to seeing your period every month, but it can still surprise you when it shows up and it’s a different colour. Bright red, dark red, brown, orange or even black… are these normal? And what do they mean?
Oh herpes. No one wants you. But with 2/3 of people under age 50 having some form of herpes, a lot of women are dealing with this unwanted guest in their lady garden. And herpes isn’t going anywhere – once you have the herpes virus, you always have the herpes virus.
Your vaginal pH is one of the most important factors contributing to the health and comfort of your lady garden. The pH of the vaginal tract is maintained by the healthy bacteria that live there – mostly Lactobacillus species. When the pH is out of balance this can lead to bacterial vaginosis (BV), yeast infections, and urinary tract infections.
While most women are given an antibiotic for UTIs – a treatment which is absolutely necessary in some cases – many women can manage their UTIs quickly and easily with a more natural and empowered approach.
BV, or Bacterial Vaginosis is the most common vaginal infection in women worldwide. With few symptoms, aside from an unpleasant odour, many women are experiencing recurrent BV infections without receiving appropriate treatment.
