VAGINAL pH HOME TEST KIT

Vaginal infections are common among women of all ages. Checking the acidity level of vaginal mucus can help determine if symptoms are caused by an infection that needs medical treatment.

Lactobacilli, a type of good bacteria, break down glycogen in the vaginal lining into glucose, which is then converted into lactic acid. This process creates an acidic environment in the vagina, with a pH between 3.8 and 4.5. This natural acidity protects against infections, as most harmful bacteria cannot survive in these conditions. However, some infections linked to abnormal vaginal acidity may require medical attention.

WHO IS THIS TEST FOR?

VAGINAL pH TEST is useful for anyone who wants to check for abnormal vaginal pH values, a symptom of one or more possible ongoing infections.

Vaginal infections in particular can be very risky for pregnant women, endangering both the mother and the fetus. For this reason the symptoms and results obtained with this test should always be discussed with a doctor.
