Lakcid Intima is in the form of vaginal capsules that contain freeze-dried live lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus gasseri DSM 14869 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus DSM 14870). These bacteria have strong adhesive properties to the vaginal epithelium, which allows them to colonize and survive in the vagina.
Both strains produce lactic acid, and the Lactobacillus gasseri DSM 14869 strain additionally produces hydrogen peroxide, thus creating an unfavorable environment for the growth of pathogenic bacteria and yeasts (most often Candida albicans).
Thanks to their properties, they influence the microbiological balance by limiting the development of pathogenic microorganisms, because by maintaining the appropriate acidic vaginal pH they can reduce symptoms such as itching, burning, vaginal discharge and unpleasant odor.
Risk factors affecting the microbiological balance in the vagina:
use of antibiotics or contraceptives,
improper hygiene during menstruation and travel,
using tampons,
pregnancy, postpartum period,
menopause,
stress,
frequent use of swimming pools, saunas,
intense sexual contact,
poor hygiene habits, such as frequent use of vaginal douches.
The consequences of disturbances in the vaginal bacterial flora may be recurrent bacterial, fungal and mixed (bacterial and fungal) vaginal inflammations.
