Understanding Vaginal Health: ,Interview with Beth DuPriest PhD

The Healthy Post Natal Body Podcast

After having several chats, and getting several emails via [e-mail] asking about vaginal health this month I wanted to bring you this interview I did with Beth DuPriest PhD
Vaginal health expert Dr. Beth DuPriest, is the Chief Science Officer at Vaginal Biome Science

Dr. DuPriest is a former Professor of Biology and Division Dean and has been involved in research related to developmental origins of health and disease for over twenty years.
Her PhD in Integrated Biomedical Sciences through the Dept. of Physiology & Pharmacology and post doctoral work through the Dept. of Pathology were completed at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU). Her work has been focused on both women’s and maternal health.
She has taught courses in microbiology, eukaryotic cell biology, genetics, biochemistry and pathophysiology among many others. She brings a broad background in women’s health and biological science and strong leadership and collaborative skills to advancing the work and discovery of vaginal microbiome science.

Beth has spent over a decade researching and teaching about women’s vaginal and maternal health, now running clinical studies to test how improving the vaginal microbiome can improve a wide variety of vulvovaginal conditions

We are talking everything to do with vaginal health.
Why vaginal health matters much more than people think it does.
Whether you should use special soap or not
How taking care of your vaginal area improves your overall health, and the possible consequences of not taking care of it.
The vaginal biome.
UTI infections and how the vaginal biome ties in with this.
How much of a shame it is that women's health is soo ridiculously underfunded and the massive impact that has on women's health overall.
And much, MUCH, more
This is one of the most enjoyable, and informative, chats I've had in a long time and it'd be a shame to miss it!
