"There are so many substances and synthetics that can disrupt the natural ecosystem and pH balance of the vagina - laundry detergent, poor diet or lots of sugar, chronic illness, the fabric of your underwear, your period, the menstrual products you use, soaps and body wash, antibiotics and medications, lubricant and condoms, your partner's semen (if you're someone who sleeps with men or people with penises), saliva...the list is endless, which is why it's so important to do routine check-ups, get a second opinion and do your research if you're intuition is telling you something is wrong," she continued.
