Aerobic Vaginitis - New Condition, Same Solution?

In a previous newsletter, we asked the question: Can LadyBalance vaginal tablets also help with the newly recognized condition aerobic vaginitis? We now have the answer – and it's positive.

Several users have shared their experiences, and a large proportion of those with symptoms of aerobic vaginitis report significant improvement when using LadyBalance intimate tablets.

Why Were We in Doubt?

For bacterial vaginosis and Candida, we know that harmful microorganisms cannot feed on lactose. However, the bacteria associated with aerobic vaginitis – such as E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus - are capable of metabolizing lactose. That’s why we were originally unsure whether LadyBalance would be effective.

User Survey - Clear Improvements

In a 2020 user survey, 57 women reported symptoms consistent with aerobic vaginitis. The results are promising:

  • 85% experienced less discharge with rotten odor
  • 72% saw improvement in inflammation, burning, and itching
  • 84% had less yellow or green discharge
  • 76% reported improvement in thick, sticky discharge
  • 52% experienced fewer problems during intercourse
  • Only 28% noticed no change, and 21% answered “don’t know”

Self-diagnosis isn’t always reliable. That’s why responses from 10 women with confirmed AV diagnosis were analyzed separately - and their results matched the full group. None of them reported worsening symptoms.

How Does It Work?

Although some bacteria can utilize lactose, experience shows that a healthy microflora dominated by lactobacilli forms a strong barrier:

  • The surface is covered with good bacteria
  • These bacteria produce acid and maintain a low pH
  • The immune system is activated
  • Some strains produce bacteriocins that inhibit harmful bacteria

In other words: LadyBalance works - even against aerobic vaginitis.
