the strains

four strains.
named on the label.

no proprietary blends. each strain is dosed at the level used in the research it is cited from — the trials we read before we wrote the formula.

lactobacillus crispatus

L. crispatus CTV-05
2 billion CFU

The dominant species in a healthy vaginal microbiome and the strain most consistently associated with low-pH protective environments. Studied in randomised trials as the lead organism in microbiome restoration.

job: restore the dominant lactobacillus species hormonal change depletes.
studies: Hemmerling 2010, Stapleton 2011, Cohen 2020.

lactobacillus rhamnosus

L. rhamnosus GR-1
2 billion CFU

One of the most-studied probiotic strains for combined intimate and gut health. The GR-1 variant has decades of clinical data supporting its persistence and beneficial activity through the gut-vaginal axis.

job: cross-axis support: gut and vaginal flora reinforce each other.
studies: Reid 2003, Anukam 2006, Vujic 2013.

lactobacillus reuteri

L. reuteri RC-14
1 billion CFU

Pairs with rhamnosus GR-1 in the most replicated probiotic-blend literature for women’s intimate health. Produces reuterin, a natural compound that supports a balanced microbial environment.

job: reinforces colonisation and helps sustain the flora long-term.
studies: Reid 2003, Anukam 2006.

lactobacillus acidophilus

L. acidophilus La-14
1 billion CFU

Selected for its lactic-acid production. Lactic acid is what creates and maintains the protective low-pH environment a healthy vaginal microbiome depends on, particularly when oestrogen drops in perimenopause.

job: drives the lactic-acid production a healthy pH depends on.
studies: Andreu 1995, Shalev 1996.
what is not in here

a short list,
on purpose.

we left a lot of common women’s-health stalwarts out of floraguard on purpose. here is the reasoning.

not included

bacillus coagulans

Marketed widely, but not part of the resident vaginal flora — its inclusion in vaginal-health products is largely transferred from gut-health research.

not included

cranberry extract

Different mechanism (antimicrobial, urinary-tract focused). We chose not to dilute the formula away from its core probiotic role.

not included

boric acid

An effective short-term intervention prescribed by clinicians in specific situations — not a daily-supplement ingredient. We respect the line.
