Did you know the pH of the Vagina is 3.8-4.5?
Maintaining a healthy pH is vital for good vaginal health. The vaginal pH is slightly acidic which is crucial to:
1. Support Good Bacteria: The acidic environment helps promote the growth of Lactobacilli, a type of “good” bacteria, protecting against infections.
2. Prevent Infections: The acidic pH inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria and yeast. When the pH rises (becomes more alkaline), it can create an environment where harmful microorganisms thrive, leading to infection.
3. Maintain Overall Vaginal Health: A balanced pH helps prevent irritation, discomfort and odour, which can result from an imbalance. Maintaining this balance is essential for the normal function and comfort of the vaginal tissues.
Sylk helps to keep this pH balanced. We use plant based ingredients that are kind and gentle to sensitive tissues. With a pH that mirrors the vaginal environment (4.5) , Sylk helps keep your vagina hydrated, healthy and in balance!
