FAQs

What are vaginal health probiotics? 
Probiotics are living microorganisms that, when ingested, benefit your health. They help maintain balance in your microbiome—the community of microbes that is present in your gut and throughout your body from birth. The term “probiotics” usually refers to beneficial bacteria, the most common of which belong to groups called Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. Certain types of yeasts, such as Saccharomyces boulardii, can also function as probiotics.
Research is showing that certain probiotic strains may provide health benefits that extend beyond the gut to the vaginal microbiome. These strains, which primarily include Lactobacillus species, play a crucial role in maintaining the delicate balance of microorganisms in the vaginal microbiome and are found in the best probiotics for vaginal health. These targeted probiotic strains help supportbalanced vaginal pH and yeast balance.*

What is the best probiotic for vaginal health?

How should I take probiotics for vaginal health?

In general, it's important to follow the instructions provided on the product label or consult with a healthcare professional for personalized guidance. Typically, probiotics are taken orally as capsules or tablets, with dosages ranging from once daily to multiple times a day, depending on the product formulation and your individual needs.

Often, the best time to take probiotics for vaginal health is just before a meal or as you begin eating. And if you’re just taking probiotics once per day, before breakfast is ideal. This is the time of day when your stomach environment is generally optimal for ensuring that you get the most out of all those beneficial bacteria. (And for many of us, adding a supplement into our morning routine is the best way to ensure that we’ll actually remember to take it!)

There’s one notable exception to the rule about taking probiotics before or with a meal. If your probiotic comes in delayed-release capsules, the exact timing of when you take it is less important. That’s because these capsules are designed to protect the beneficial bacteria inside, so they survive exposure to stomach acid and reach your gut alive. All Renew Life Women’s Care Probiotic capsules are made with delayed-release technology for this very reason. (If you don’t like taking capsules, try our probiotic gummies for an easy, tasty way to fit probiotics in to your daily routine.)

Probiotics have been shown to be safe for long-term daily use, and you can take them for as long as you feel they are benefiting your health.

Does gut health affect vaginal health?

Yes, gut health can significantly affect vaginal health. The gut and vagina are interconnected through the body's microbiome. The gut microbiome tends to get the most attention—keeping it balanced is fundamental to digestive, immune and overall wellness, after all—but your vagina has its own unique microbiome, and probiotics can play a role in keeping it balanced as well.*

These strains are commonly found in the best probiotics for vaginal health.*

What makes probiotics specifically beneficial for women's health? 

Women’s bodies—and our microbiomes—are unique and complex, and there are several ways that probiotics can benefit women’s health. Women suffer disproportionately when it comes to gut health—issues like occasional constipation and tummy troubles are more common among women than men. Maintaining urinary tract health is also more challenging for women, due simply to our anatomy. The good news? These are areas where women’s probiotics can really help maintain balance.*

There’s another area where probiotics really shine for women—vaginal health. Certain probiotic strains have been clinically shown to help maintain vaginal pH and yeast balance. Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1® and Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14® are two types of bacteria found in the vaginas (and urinary tracts) of healthy women.

It’s a good idea to talk to your healthcare practitioner before starting a probiotic supplement for guidance in selecting the best strains, dose and duration for your health goals.*
