Noticiable improvement
Having experienced thrush I tried other treatments which had no lasting effect. After trying the Fem Biotic I had a noticeable improvement. Would definitely recommend!

Solved my bloating
Having been misdiagnosed with IBS I’ve tried a lot of supplements in search of something that helps with my abdominal bloating. The Fem Biotic is the best I’ve tried so far, great product!

Much more comfortable
I suffered with what I now know was a UTI after constant urges to pee and uncomfortable feeling while peeing. This product has all but removed the urges and discomfort.

Highly recommend!
My hot flushes have been extremely embarrassing since going through the change and always come at the worst time! The Fem Biotic reduced them almost completely so I will definitely be continuing with it, great purchase.

Great for cramps
I had chronic stomach bloating, cramps and bowel issues which started in my mid 40s. I’ve used the Fem Biotic for 2 months now and have noticed an amazing improvement, notably with my swelling.

It has changed my life!
What attracted me to fem biotic was the urinary tract support. I'd been suffering from recurring UTIs, with no apparent cause to me, for well over 6 months. Antibiotics seemed the only solution; Something I really wanted to avoid, as I was working on my gut health. Since starting Fem Biotic in March, almost 5 months now, I have not had any UTI  issues. I am not exaggerating when I say it has changed my life. No more emergency GP appointments or days off work. It's really helped. I'm so grateful to Fem Biotic. Thank you.

Fem-biotic - Probiotic Supplement, Developed by Doctors

Fem-Biotic gut-flora supplement
live cultures complex
YES icon
What's inside?
Our probiotic for women was designed with perimenopause and menopause in mind. It includes two live culture strains that target vaginal and gut health, with 5bn CFUs of each strain.
Inulin
inulin
Observational studies suggest this prebiotic fibre could help reduce hot flushes when taken alongside supplements containing isoflavones. It also boosts the efficacy of probiotics when taken together.
Lactobacillus
Lactobacillus Acidophilus
A heavily researched live culture that is found in the mouth, intestine and vagina, this prebiotic has been shown to help prevent bacterial vaginosis and candidal vaginitis (thrush). This is among many other broader benefits such as reducing cardiovascular disease, improving immune function and reducing bloating.
lactobacillus reuteri
Lactobacillus Reuteri
This strain has also been shown to help rebalance your vaginal microbiome to support women’s health. It colonises the vagina and encourages other beneficial bacteria to flourish. This can reduce the risk of thrush, bacterial vaginosis and even UTIs.
menopause supplement shell
Slow Release Capsule Shell
Slow-release capsule shells and acid-resistant probiotic strains protect the efficacy of our women’s probiotic. This helps you get the most benefit out of the 10bn CFUs in every serving.

FAQ's

Can you take probiotics with HRT?
Not only can you take probiotic supplements while taking prescription HRT, research suggests they could help boost its effectiveness. The  L.Acidophilus in our supplement will help improve your gut health, vaginal health and even urinary tract health which in turn can even reduce your symptoms. Both of the probiotic bacteria strains we use are also shown to support the microbiome of your vagina as well as your digestive health. They will help keep you comfortable through your symptoms and reduce your chances of adding to your struggle with infections.
What probiotic strain is best for menopause?
Studies show that Lactobacillus bacteria are the most beneficial probiotics for menopausal women. This is because they don’t just support gut health, helping to reduce bloating, menopause weight gain and reduce inflammation, they also help with vaginal health by balancing the vaginal microbiome. In particular, L.Acidiphilius is found in both the digestive tract and the vagina, so supplementing it can help address several menopausal symptoms and concerns.
Do probiotics help balance your hormones?
Not only do your hormones affect your gut microbiome, but research has also shown that gut bacteria can also affect your hormone levels. This is because it increases the speed of your digestive system, ensuring you don’t reabsorb too much oestrogen and end up with an imbalance.During menopause, probiotics perform a much broader and equally important function. Improving your body’s ability to absorb nutrients can reduce deficiencies, inflammation and symptoms such as hot flushes. This is as well as protecting against yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis and UTIs.
