#55: Vagina Bugs and the Essential Role They Play
Listen now
Description
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.
