Treat, balance: Any vaginal symptoms? You should have a pelvic exam with samples collected to check for bacterial and/ or yeast overgrowth, as well as sexually transmitted infections, if you are at risk. If positive, appropriate treatment can be offered. Taking a probiotic with acidophilus helps restore/ balance healthy bacteria levels. Natural cotton underwear preferred over synthetic polyester.
