Today on patreon, we discussed Bacterial Vaginosis, Or vaginitis. The first thing we would have to understand is what BV is. BV is an overgrowth of bacteria in the vagina, and while we're supposed to have a normal amount, we may produce more than needed.

affects our body's ability to produce the correct amount of mucous. As we all know, our vagina naturally produces a discharge to again, clean and rid of excess bacteria. A high fat & and high refined diet is likely the source of the problem.

When the body is loaded with fat, it stimulates the fat cells we already have to produce more more estrogen, a pseudo-estrogen. This and a lack of fiber foster the growth of intestinal bacteria, clostrida varieties, that are able to convert bile aides into estrogen-like hormones.

Normally to correct this imbalance, the diet must be changed to lower fat and cholesterol & increased fiber. The reason for this is fat cells produce estrogen, which disrupts the estrogen balance within the body.

Estrogens are eliminated through feces. the more efficient the bowel movement is, the greater the estrogen reduction from the body, (hence why adding fiber and leafy greens to your diet helps).

These herbs are great for helping with BV:
goldenseal (Yellowroot), 
red raspberry, 
echinacea, 
slippery elm

BV, or vagina related problems a denote the lack of capacity to give yourself to another person, recent questions in regards to what is your femininity is to you, communication problems and even sexual frustration.

If BV keeps reoccurring, you’d want to explore those areas of your life to see where repeat circumstances are happening. Join us on Patreon to learn more: http://Patreon.com/ancestralherbiary
