Could a simple swab after C-Section prevent childhood allergies?
NCT ID NCT03567707
Summary
This study is testing whether transferring vaginal bacteria to babies born by C-section can help prevent allergies and asthma. Researchers are comparing C-section babies who receive this transfer with those who don't, and with babies born vaginally. The goal is to see if this early exposure to beneficial bacteria helps train the immune system to be less allergic.
