Vaginal Microbiota Clinical Trial
Official title:
Examining the Impact of Tampon Use on the Vaginal Microbiota
The vaginal microbiota is the community of bacteria in the vagina. The composition of the vaginal microbiota (which bacteria are present and how many of each are present) is known to affect vaginal health and contribute to the development of bacterial vaginosis (the largest cause of vaginal discharge and malodor, and the most common vaginal disorder). It is also known that the composition of the vaginal microbiota changes across a menstrual cycle with the largest changes happening during a woman's period. However, it is not know how tampon use affects vaginal microbiota composition. This study is being done to learn what effect tampon use has on vaginal microbiota composition during a woman's period and between periods.
