Probiotics

Women's Health

Chr. Hansen offers the first oral probiotic capsule for restoring and maintaining a healthy vaginal flora.

Probiotics balances the natural flora

Imbalance in the urogenital area can cause several unpleasant conditions such as Bacterial Vaginosis (BV). Recurrent BV may lead to symptoms such as foul/fishy odor, vaginal discharge and bacterial infections.

Good news for women

Chr. Hansen's probiotic strains effectively restore and maintain the natural flora of the vagina. This fact is supported by numerous clinical studies (in humans).

And the good news for women is that the product comes as a simple capsule taken orally once a day!

Well-documented products

The concept was developed in collaboration between Chr. Hansen A/S and the Canadian biotech company, UREX Biotech Inc, in the 1990s. The latter was founded by the two well-known scientists, microbiologist Dr. Gregor Reid and urologist Dr. Andrew Bruce, who have documented the health effects of the probiotic strains used in the product since 1973.
