Vaginal & Urinary EcologiX™ Bundle

Description

Crafted with your well-being in mind, this multi-microbiome testing bundle offers our most comprehensive assessment of your interconnected Vaginal and Urinary microbiomes.

Even though each microbiome is unique, the different microbiome sites of the human body are in constant communication with each other. They are also in constant communication with our body cells, influencing the health of every system within you. It can be beneficial to cultivate a curiosity about your own microbiomes and delve into their intricacies, gaining a deeper understanding of our symbiotic relationship with them, as well as how any disruption in host-to-microbiome communication can impact our overall health.

Our Vaginal & Urinary EcologiX Bundle provides an opportunity to delve into your vaginal, and urinary microbiomes, shedding light on how they interrelate with each other and with your overall health. This exploration is done in collaboration with your chosen healthcare provider, enabling you to prioritize, streamline, and incorporate personalized dietary, lifestyle, and supplement choices aligned with your wellness goals.

Many women suffer from chronic or recurrent urinary and vaginal health issues, including different types of infection, often bacterial, fungal, mycoplasma, and/or protozoan in origin. Not only can ongoing genitourinary issues cause significant physical distress, but they can also have other health implications, including on our reproductive and emotional well-being.

Thanks to the advanced qPCR DNA testing technology which we use to assess the composition of the vaginal and urinary microbiome, these tests provide in-depth insight into a broad range of microbes which may be overgrown and contributing to symptoms and health issues, within the context of assessment of the all-important commensal bacteria in these microbiome sites. Assessment of pH and inflammation in the Vaginal EcologiX allows the healthcare provider to have a deeper understanding of the host-microbiome interaction in the vagina and its clinical significance for the health of the individual. Not only can this information help to support vaginal and urinary wellness, but it can also have wider wellness benefits given the impact of vaginal health on reproductive health, for example.

There are many reasons to select this testing bundle. Regardless of your reasons for embarking on this well-being exploration, enhancing your understanding of your vaginal, and urinary microbiomes and their potential influence on your health can assist both you and your chosen healthcare provider in making well-informed decisions regarding your dietary, lifestyle, and supplement choices.
