Myth: Every vagina has the same pH, and hence requires the same amount of care. This is absolutely UNTRUE. Vaginal pH varies from person to person and even day to day, depending on your cycle, your diet and many other external factors.
pH refers to the vagina’s acidity level. Vaginas naturally contain a balance of different bacteria (lactobacilli - these are the good guys!) that protect the vagina from external bacteria and fungus. They provide natural disinfectants and help maintain for most women an average vaginal pH of 3.5-4.5. A vaginal pH in this range indicates that there is a perfect amount of good bacteria, and no overgrowth of the bad bacteria that can cause odor, irritation and sometimes infection.
Signs and symptoms of an unbalanced vaginal pH
A high pH level that leads to BV or another infection may cause symptoms like these:
· A foul or fishy smell
· Unusual white, gray, or green discharge
· Vaginal itching
· Burning when you urinate

What causes an unbalanced vaginal pH?
Any of the following situations can change your vaginal pH level:
· Unprotected sex. Semen is alkaline, which can encourage growth of certain bacteria.

· Antibiotics. These drugs kill not only the bad bacteria that cause disease, but also the good bacteria you need to maintain a healthy, more acidic, vaginal pH level.
· Douching. Although it isn’t advised, about 20 percent of women regularly wash out their yoni with a mixture of water and vinegar, baking soda, or iodine. Douching not only increases the yoni pH level, but also encourages the growth of harmful bacterial overall.

· Menstrual periods. Menstrual blood is a little bit basic and raises the pH in the vagina. When that blood flows through the vagina and is absorbed into a tampon or pad and sits in place, it can raise the pH level of the vagina.

Just as every person is different, every vagina is different, and requires different amount of care! EmpressBody has put together a few tips to help balance your yoni pH.
EmpressBody’s Tips:
1. Switch to an Alkaline Diet
Most women have a diet that consists of hidden ingredients that can cause more harm than we know. Swiching to an alkaline diet can help balance the body from unavoidable and unknowable ingredients, this can be done over the course of a month or for more permanent benefits even longer. Alkaline water is the first step, some like to use Moringa or kaffir lime juice in their water to help create this effect. EmpressBody stock two different forms of Moringa:

Our EmpressBody™ Moringa tea works as a good detox. The various parts of this plant are rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, potassium, iron and protein. Moringa leaf is best known as an excellent source of nutrition and natural energy booster. This energy boost is not based on sugar, and so it is sustained. Most importantly for helping with yoni pH, Moringa is also soothing. It helps lower blood pressure and is a sleep aid. Its detoxifying effect may come from Moringa's ability to purify water.
