Friendly bacteria for women

The UK's No 1 friendly bacteria supplement for the vagina*

For Women contains friendly bacteria strains especially found in the vaginal & urinary tracts, scientifically proven to reach the intimate area to complement the vaginal flora and to support normal pH levels.


It is suitable for women of all ages and is backed by over 30 years of research.


Lots of women with UTIs have taken For Women alongside other supplements like cranberry, natural anti-bacterials and anti-fungals.

Liz Earle and Dr Kate talk about the vaginal microbiome

A healthy vagina typically contains Lactobacilli bacteria which produce lactic acid and hydrogen peroxide. These substances help to keep the all-important pH balance in the vagina at an optimum pH of 4.5 (slightly acidic). 


Several strains, such as Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14® and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1®, and Lactobacillus paracasei F-19®, survive to reach the vaginal flora and prefer to colonise there. 


Women's friendly bacteria supplements are for anyone who feels they can benefit.
