Your vaginal microbiome is a delicate ecosystem. When it’s in balance and thriving, it protects you from infection and supports your overall health. But when that careful balance is disrupted, it can’t function the way it’s supposed to, leading to a whole host of challenges.
When it comes to vaginal health, there’s no shortage of advice online — some of it helpful, but much of it’s misleading or just plain wrong. With endless information at our fingertips, it can be tough to tell what's accurate and what's just another myth. Let’s break down some of the most common misconceptions about vaginal health and separate the facts from fiction.
Antibiotics are the go-to treatment for vaginal infections like bacterial vaginosis (BV) but they’re far from the perfect solution. Many women find themselves stuck in a frustrating cycle of temporary relief, annoying side effects and recurring infections.
At UVISA, we are a channel and an ecosystem for knowledge-sharing, bringing curiosity into how the intimate health of women can be perceived, communicated and improved.
Inclusivity matters to us. While we sometimes use 'her' when discussing vaginal health for simplicity, we recognize that not everyone with a vagina identifies as a woman. No matter your gender identity, you're welcome here—our work is for you.
