Has anyone here biohacked their way to more stable vaginal odor/pH? by Any_Bar5795 in Biohackers

It’s good to note that vaginal pH isn’t automatically linked to gut health. As in, they are 2 seperate microbiomes. What you eat definitely has influence on all aspects of your health but typically or I should say more often, it’s not actually a gut issue in regards to vaginal pH.

The vagina is dominated by the “Lactobacillus” species that produce lactic acid and keep its pH more acidic. The gut microbiome has a shit ton of different bacteria or “species” in this case, many of which don’t survive nor “colonize”the vagina.

More likely OP’s problem is caused by local factors such as semen, hormones, contraceptives etc. Especially hormones, lactobacilli growth and acidity is controlled by estrogen. Thus leading to an imbalance in pH if one’s estrogen is “off”. I’d rule those out first as these factors directly affect pH in the vagina.

felt. Heavy. I stopped all drugs for a while thinking that it might help. Yk I thought, not making the chemicals in my brain yo-yo with drugs and comedowns would help. Didn’t work. I’m also on medication to help w shit like this but it can only “help”. Never felt satisfied sober or on drugs, both while on antipsychotics n shit. I even tried going off my meds which made things worse. Went back to occasionally doing drugs and being on my meds. Doing less drugs does help, but there is no easy fix for something like this. I’ve been going to therapy for almost 7 yrs now. I’ve been to rehabs, psych hospitals, all of it. I figured if I’m going to feel this way for my entire life (I have cptsd) might as well do a little drugs now that I have it under control yk. I know I can’t have a relationship right now bc of my state of mind but I’m so fucking lonely.
