The 5 things that throw it off

Your period
Blood is less acidic than your vaginal environment.

Antibiotics
They can’t tell bacteria apart, so they take out the good ones too.
-
Moisture
A wet swimsuit or sweaty gym leggings.
-
Stress and short nights
When your body’s in survival mode, your microbiome feels it too.
-
Your hormones
Pregnancy, postpartum, menopause: every stage shifts your balance.
3 mistakes you didn’t know were messing with your pH
-
Scented soap
The same scented body wash you use everywhere else is too harsh for your most delicate skin.
-
Scented panty liners
They trap moisture and add fragrance right where your skin is most delicate.
-
Tight or damp clothes
Gym leggings all day or sitting around in a wet swimsuit means nothing down there gets to breathe.
