Your vagina has its own ecosystem, and no, that yeast on your test doesn't automatically mean infection. In this episode, The Cuntsultant breaks down the vaginal microbiome: why lactobacilli are your best friend, how your gut and hormones secretly run the show, and why "rebalance your pH" is basically meaningless advice. We get into recurrent BV, partner treatment, boric acid (plus the Poison Control call about oral sex timing), and why yogurt does NOT belong in your vagina. Honest, funny, shame-free.
