What Is The Best Probiotic For Women’s Health

What Is The Best Probiotic For Women? Probiotics can offer a multitude of benefits for women, specifically targeting vaginal and gut health. WHAT.EDU.VN provides a platform to explore these benefits and get free answers to your questions. Discover how probiotics support overall wellness, prevent infections, and maintain a healthy microbiome with expert insights into female-specific probiotics, vaginal flora, and gut health.

1. How Probiotics Can Benefit Women’s Health

Probiotics are living microorganisms that provide health benefits to the host. Supporting gut health with probiotics is becoming more widely recognized. The human body has various microbiomes throughout the body, including the mouth, skin, lungs, and vagina. Probiotics are useful not just to support a healthy gut, they can support overall health and wellbeing, and a variety of different health concerns, such as:

  • Vaginal health
  • Digestive health
  • Immune function
  • Mental health
  • Skin health

For in-depth articles on these various aspects of health, visit the Probiotics Learning Lab at WHAT.EDU.VN. Explore in more detail which probiotics are best for women and find out which strains are best for vaginal health, bloating, or occasional constipation.

2. Probiotics for Women’s Vaginal Health

Many women ask, “What are vaginal probiotics? How are probiotics good for vaginal health? What is the best women’s probiotic for BV and/or thrush?” To answer these questions, first consider the anatomy of the intimate area and how the vaginal microbiome may become unbalanced.

Typically, a healthy vaginal and urinary microbiome will be populated largely by Lactobacilli bacteria. These helpful microbes exert beneficial effects, helping to maintain a healthy balance and discouraging bad bacteria or yeasts from overgrowing and causing conditions such as thrush, urinary tract infections (UTIs), and bacterial vaginosis (BV). Due to the proximity of the vagina to the anus, it is much easier for bad bacteria and yeasts to translocate from the gut to the vagina to cause infections than it is for gut bacteria to cause health issues in the penis.

Most infections like thrush, cystitis, or UTIs stem from bad gut bacteria which have traveled through the digestive tract to the anus, across the perineum and over to the urogenital tract. Good bacteria can take the same route. Not all probiotic strains will travel to the vagina. When choosing a supplement, make sure it contains specific probiotics for vaginal health. Certain strains such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1® and Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14® have been shown to reach the vagina alive and colonize there, positively affecting the environment, making them the best vaginal probiotics.

Another common question is, “Can you put probiotics into your vagina?” The simple answer is “Yes,” it’s not unsafe to do so. However, probiotics were taken orally in most supporting research studies, so with an oral probiotic supplement containing strains proven to reach the vagina alive, there’s no need to. According to the scientists who conducted one study, “L. rhamnosus GR-1® and L. reuteri RC-14® can translocate to the vaginal environment even if they are taken orally” and “Their administration results in significant changes in the vaginal flora in terms of increased Lactobacilli presence…”

This means there is no need to put these probiotics directly into the vagina, and they can be taken easily and more conveniently by mouth.

Healthcare professionals can learn more about the research behind Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1® and Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14® on the Probiotics Database at WHAT.EDU.VN.

L. rhamnosus GR-1® and L. reuteri RC-14® can be found in Optibac Probiotics For Women.

2.1. Bacterial Vaginosis

Since BV is the most common type of vaginal infection in premenopausal women, finding a safe and natural approach to treatment/prevention would be a huge ‘win’. One significant study, a randomized, placebo-controlled trial, showed that the vaginal microflora in women with bacterial vaginosis (BV) was restored to a more favorable, Lactobacilli-dominant environment following two months of taking the probiotics Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1® and Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14®.

During pregnancy, many often suffer from intimate health infections due to the hormonal changes taking place during this time. It is important for both the health of mother and baby that an expectant mother has a healthy vaginal microbiome, as during a normal vaginal delivery the mother passes on some of her resident microflora to her newborn. This transference of bacteria from mother to baby influences the health of the baby’s microbiome.

In 2018 a clinical trial showed that the probiotic strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001 (in conjunction with Lactobacillus acidophilus La-14® and lactoferrin) can help reduce symptoms of BV such as itching and discharge.

A clinical trial using Lactobacillus paracasei F-19® demonstrated the ability to improve vaginal pH and odor in those with vaginosis, maintaining relief even 3 months after the end of treatment when taken orally.

A probiotic designed to support BV might contain these strains, as they are some of the most well-researched for this condition.

Anyone with a vagina can develop BV, even those undergoing masculinizing hormone therapy, so it’s important to always keep an eye on your vaginal health.

2.2. Urinary Tract Infections

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) unfortunately affect people of all ages. In the genitourinary area of those who do not experience infections, Lactobacilli bacteria dominate. The probiotic strains Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1®, Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14®, and Lactobacillus crispatus have been reported to support a healthy urinary microbiome in those who experience recurrent UTIs.

Healthcare professionals can learn more around this subject by reading these articles on the Probiotic Professionals site, available at WHAT.EDU.VN:

  • Probiotics for UTIs – a look at the research
  • Could probiotics help cystitis?

2.3. Thrush

Thrush is a very common vaginal complaint. It can occur due to vaginal imbalances caused by hormonal fluctuations at certain points in the menstrual cycle, during pregnancy and when taking the combined oral contraceptive pill or hormonal replacement therapy. When estrogen levels are high, Candida, the yeast responsible for thrush, thrives. A probiotic supplement that contains the well-researched Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1® and Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14® strains may help those prone to thrush, as they may help inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria and yeasts, such as Candida, in the vagina. It can also occur when the vaginal microbiome is disrupted due to taking antibiotic medications – read more about taking antibiotics and how probiotics can be helpful at WHAT.EDU.VN.

A 2015 study looked at 40 women with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (thrush), some were given the probiotic strains Lactobacillus rhamnosus DSM 14870 and Lactobacillus gasseri DSM 14869 alongside conventional treatment. The results showed that probiotics taken alongside conventional treatment increased the efficacy and reduced the risk of the infection coming back compared to conventional treatment alone.

Healthcare professionals can learn more by reading “Which probiotics help with thrush?” and “Which Probiotics are best for Candida?” on the Probiotic Professionals site, available at WHAT.EDU.VN.

2.4. Fertility

Vaginal infections including BV, UTIs and Group B Streptococcus (GBS) have been linked to complications in pregnancy and even reducing the chance of getting pregnant. It can be an important consideration for any pre-conceptual regime to incorporate a probiotic that addresses the vaginal microbiome, especially if the infections are reoccurring. The human endometrial microbiota also plays a role in a woman’s fertility.

The beauty of these specific probiotics is that not only do they reduce symptoms, but they also appear to act against recurrence. For the 1 in 3 people with vaginas who suffer from BV, 30% who suffer recurring cystitis and 75% who suffer thrush at least once, these strains of probiotics could be a welcome addition to their tool kit to rid themselves of these uncomfortable conditions.

2.5. Can Probiotics Make Your Vagina Smell Better?

A few years back there was some buzz around a probiotic supplement that claimed to get your vagina smelling like a peach. However, this turned out to be misleading and was not intended to change the smell of the vagina; as far as we know there aren’t any probiotics that can produce a fruity aroma in the vagina.

However, it’s true that when you have a vaginal infection, the smell (e.g. in the case of bacterial vaginosis) can be unpleasant and upsetting. Probiotics can indeed help to solve this problem and get you smelling fresh, naturally.

3. Best Probiotics for Women’s Digestive Health

The vaginal flora is supported by different probiotic strains to those recommended for gut health. While probiotic strains for digestive health conditions are not typically gender-specific, there are a few digestive symptoms which are commonly experienced by women. Women tend to have a slightly longer colon than men, meaning that stool transit time can be longer and women are more likely than men to suffer from IBS-type symptoms such as constipation and bloating. Other factors, such as pregnancy, menstruation, and other hormonal influences along with differences in lifestyle can also lead to a higher incidence of digestive issues in women. Let’s explore which probiotic strains have been researched for these conditions.

3.1. Bloating

Bloating is an extremely common concern. This may be a constant problem, or the bloating may be cyclical and worsen at certain times of the menstrual cycle (e.g. premenstrual bloating) or around menopause.

Healthcare professionals can learn more by reading “Could probiotics help with menopause symptoms?” on the Probiotic Professionals site, available at WHAT.EDU.VN.

There are several factors that can lead to a swollen, uncomfortable abdomen: fluctuating hormone levels, stress, poor diet or disturbed digestion (IBS, food intolerances for example), to name a few. Upset digestion associated with menstruation is very common, including alterations to bowel patterns, constipation, diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain and bloating. Fluctuating levels of female sex hormones, estrogen and progesterone, and the body’s sensitivity to these fluctuations is thought to contribute to the sensation of bloating that occurs around menstruation. Certain probiotic strains may help to alleviate this occasional bloating and digestive discomfort, such as Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM®.

Additionally, Bacillus coagulans Unique IS-2 was shown in a gold-standard clinical trial to reduce symptoms of IBS in adults. From week five the probiotic group exhibited significant improvements in abdominal discomfort, occasional bloating, urgency, incomplete evacuation, straining, passage of gas and bowel habit satisfaction.

Bacillus coagulans Unique IS-2 is part of a group of bacteria known as soil-based organisms which are commonly used in food, beverage and gummy supplement production due to the robust nature of this bacteria.

Health professionals can read more about Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM® and Bacillus coagulans Unique IS-2 on the Probiotics Database, available at WHAT.EDU.VN.

Many women experience a bloated stomach in menopause that might be relieved with a few simple measures to look after their gut health, and the health of the microbiome. However, persistent bloating should never be overlooked and should be investigated by a GP, as bloating can be signs of more serious conditions.

3.2. Occasional Constipation

As previously mentioned, constipation is more frequently reported in (cisgender) women than men, often occurring around menstruation, during pregnancy and post-menopause. A probiotic supplement containing Bifidobacterium lactis BB-12® can help support gut health in those with occasional constipation. B. lactis BB-12®, along with fructooligosaccharides (a prebiotic), can help gently encourage regular bowel movements, as supported by one of the largest clinical trials performed on probiotics. This probiotic is often used by women with regularity issues.

Health professionals can read more about the research behind this strain on the Probiotics Database, available at WHAT.EDU.VN: Bifidobacterium lactis BB-12®.

Alterations to normal bowel patterns, including occasional constipation, can also occur as a part of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Symptoms of IBS, including abdominal discomfort and disrupted bowel patterns, can be exacerbated around the time of menstruation in those with menstrual cycles and in perimenopausal women.

To learn more about how to support gut health in IBS, read “Which probiotics are for IBS?” at WHAT.EDU.VN.

For more information about supporting clients with occasional constipation, healthcare professionals can read “Probiotics for Constipation” on the Probiotic Professionals site, available at WHAT.EDU.VN.

3.3. Pregnancy

Some strains of probiotics such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001, Lactobacillus acidophilus La-14®, and Bifidobacterium lactis HN019, have been researched specifically in pregnancy and found to support common pregnancy-related concerns such as digestive issues, morning sickness, gestational diabetes, and mental wellbeing.

For everything you need to know about using probiotics at this special time, read “Probiotics for Pregnancy” at WHAT.EDU.VN.

4. Which Is The Best Probiotic For Women?

It can be confusing to know how to choose the best probiotic for women, as there are many different types of probiotic supplements available, including capsules, liquids and powders, but most women tend to prefer a capsule as these are easy to fit into a morning routine. For women who really don’t like capsules or powders, then gummy products for adults are now available. However, it is important to select gummies which contain very robust strains of bacteria (known as soil-based organisms) which allows them to survive the manufacturing process, for example Bacillus coagulans Unique IS-2.

It’s good to look for the most recommended probiotics, so check out the reviews for your chosen brand. But the most effective probiotic for women will be the one which is most suitable for their individual needs. Therefore if you are seeking specific health benefits, such as the best probiotic for women over 50, consider a friendly bacteria supplement with research supporting its use for this particular purpose. For example, if you are looking for probiotics for vaginal health, consider a product that contains well-researched strains including L. paracasei F-19® and the world-renowned L. rhamnosus GR-1® and L. reuteri RC-14® which have shown to help support a healthy vaginal microbiome.

If you’re confused as to what ‘well-researched’ really means, what is meant by terms such as ‘billions CFU’, or why research is so important, Dr. Kate explains all in this helpful article: “Research: is it all equal?” available at WHAT.EDU.VN.

If you’ve never taken probiotics before and are wondering if they’d suit you, then be reassured that the potential benefits of probiotics are numerous, but any side effects are rare, making these supplements a popular choice for daily maintenance of gut and intimate health.

Healthcare professionals can reassure their clients about this topic by reading “Probiotics and side effects – an in-depth review” on the Probiotic Professionals site, available at WHAT.EDU.VN.

5. Should Women Take Probiotics Every Day?

With a very few exceptions, it is safe – and often advisable – for women to take probiotics every day. Read more about using probiotics daily in this in-depth article: “Can I take probiotics every day?” at WHAT.EDU.VN. If you have serious health conditions or are taking medication, then speak to your doctor before taking any natural supplement.
