Today we are talking all about the vagina and the bugs that live there. Did you know that the type of bacteria that inhabit your vagina can impact whether you get pregnant, have a miscarriage, or deliver a baby early? Those bugs are collectively known as the microbiome, and the vaginal and female reproductive tract microbiome is what we are discussing. We chat about what it is, how it impacts our fertility, pregnancy, birth, and babies, what are signs that it may be imbalanced, and how to shift it back into balance. Let's dive right in.
