About the episode

What’s the best care for down-there? When it’s not an STI, can feminine hygiene wash solve the problem? And will yoga pants give me thrush? These are just some of the questions host Dr Sne Wadhwani puts to Dr Ros Foster, a sexual health physician with over 20 years under her belt. Together, they explore the ins and outs of maintaining a happy and healthy vagina, from understanding the delicate balance of your vaginal microbiome to deciphering whether it's thrush or bacterial vaginosis causing trouble. And if you don’t know where or what to turn to when things seem a fishy, Dr Sne and Dr Ros have the answers.   CREDITS Host: Sneha Wadhwani  Producer: Kelsey MenziesExecutive Producer: Todd StevensSound Design: Kelli Foulstone  Find more great podcasts like this at www.listnr.com/   SOURCES https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8058480/ https://www.nature.com/articles/s41564-022-01083-2 https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/bacterial-vaginosis-vs-yeast-infection  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
