We explored how probiotics affect ear infections in a study using twenty-four male Wistar rats. The rats were divided into groups to receive probiotics at different times related to induced ear effusion.
The results showed that the healing rate of ear effusions improved significantly with probiotics. Particularly, those that received probiotics both before and after the effusion showed a 100% healing rate. This suggests that probiotics may help reduce inflammation and support recovery in cases of otitis media with effusion.
Therefore, probiotics could serve as a helpful complementary treatment for individuals at risk of these ear infections.

We evaluated the effectiveness of the probiotic strain PS7 in preventing repeat ear infections, known as recurrent acute otitis media (rAOM), in children. In a trial involving 61 children, those who took the probiotic daily experienced a significant reduction in AOM episodes—an 84% decrease compared to the previous six months.
Our findings suggest that PS7 not only helps restore the middle ear microbiota but is also safe and effective in reducing ear infection frequency in young children.

We explored whether probiotics could reduce ear infections in children prone to acute otitis media. In a robust study involving 309 children aged 10 months to 6 years, participants either took a daily probiotic or a placebo for 24 weeks.
Unfortunately, the results showed that probiotics did not significantly lower the rates of ear infections or the time they lasted. While there was a hint of fewer respiratory infections in the probiotic group, this needs more research to validate.
Overall, probiotics didn't deliver the hoped-for benefits regarding ear infections in these children.

Immediate relief

I had a stubborn yeast infection for almost four months and tried numerous treatments without success. My doctor suggested long-term antifungal treatment, but I opted for probiotics instead. I discovered Femdophilus, which effectively rebalanced my vaginal flora. The relief was nearly immediate, and my condition significantly improved. I plan to continue taking these for the foreseeable future, for both balance and immunity.

Works!!!! Anyone with BV!!!!!!. If you have BV, please try this! After years of dealing with it following the birth of my son, receiving various treatments with no success, I did my research and gave this a go. Within two days, it was gone! I take one pill daily now, and I’ve been BV-free since. It’s unbelievable, and I wish I had discovered this years ago. Ladies, just give it a try!

Finally!!! I’ve suffered from BV since I was 17, and countless doctor visits yielded no clear answers. Frustrated, I decided to try this product based on excellent reviews. I had my doubts, but after taking two pills the very first evening, my symptoms were gone by morning. I now take two daily around my period or intercourse, and I will never stop using them!

We aimed to explore how lactobacillus, a common probiotic, might help treat chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM), a significant cause of hearing loss. Through a series of laboratory procedures including RNA sequencing and cellular tests, we looked at how lactobacillus could modulate inflammation in the ear.
While our findings indicated that lactobacillus has the potential to reduce inflammatory markers linked to CSOM, it’s important to note that the direct benefits on ear infection symptoms were not overwhelmingly significant.
Overall, we uncovered some insights into the mechanisms at play, hinting at a possible adjunct role of probiotics in ear health.

This study evaluated how Lactobacillus acidophilus could impact bacteria causing ear infections. By examining its antibacterial activity alongside ciprofloxacin, we found interesting results.
Lactobacillus demonstrated a strong ability to combat certain pathogens, especially when combined with the antibiotic, although some combinations produced negative effects.
Overall, Lactobacillus acidophilus appears to have potential as a complementary treatment for managing ear infections, thanks to its antibacterial properties and ability to inhibit biofilm formation.

We explored how a combination of immune-boosting supplements might help children with otitis media with effusion (OME). In a well-structured study involving 198 children, different groups received various treatment regimens over three months.
While results indicated these oral supplements improved middle ear conditions and enhanced immune responses, it’s important to note that the improvements were supportive, rather than a standalone solution. Our findings suggest these supplements could be a helpful addition to traditional treatment methods for recurrent ear infections in children.

Twenty years of cyclical infections are gone. I have suffered from recurring infections since my teens. I discovered this product and decided to try it. It works remarkably well, so much that I can honestly say it has changed my life and my marriage. I've spent vast amounts on treatments that failed. I have been using Femdophilus for over a year now, taking it only when I feel discomfort. In the beginning, I took it twice daily for six months.

Infection resolved

I endured a year-long yeast infection from candida glabrata, resistant to most treatments. I tried everything to no avail until I started using these probiotics. I found that by combining them with Boric acid and careful maintenance, my infection finally cleared. It’s been two weeks without symptoms after diligent care, making this product a miracle for my ongoing struggle.

This product has truly transformed my life! I was battling a severe yeast infection that flucanzole couldn't remedy. After taking just two doses over two days, I felt completely restored. It's remarkable how effective this has been in treating my condition.

This product is a gift for those combatting recurrent candida infections. After six months of struggle, I tried this probiotic, which has small, easy-to-swallow capsules. After a month of use, my symptoms improved, and I've had no recurrences since. It's crucial to consult a doctor during treatment.

Prevented infection recurrence

I've been taking these probiotics for nearly a year and have repurchased them multiple times. Initially, I took 2-3 capsules daily. Now, I add cranberries and have not experienced any infections since. Patience is key as it works with your body over time.

Persistent relief

This is the only women’s probiotic I purchase. Long before probiotics were widely accepted, Jarrow Formulas created Fem-Dophilus. I've used it for 10 years and have not faced bacterial vaginosis since. It effectively tackles stubborn yeast infections if taken on an empty stomach, about 20 minutes prior to meals.

Instant odor relief

Orimono worked wonders overnight. Previously, I was self-conscious about odour in my intimate area, but it vanished by morning after taking it. The itching resembling a yeast infection also disappeared. After enduring unpleasant odours for decades, I'm finally free. It's a lifesaver for women!

I was initially sceptical about the effectiveness of this product as I'd tried expensive, refrigerated probiotics before. However, this product stopped my secretions and itching almost immediately. Its rapid impact for vaginal infections was surprising, even outpacing antibiotics in efficacy!
