Could a probiotic boost yeast infection treatment?
NCT ID NCT07603895
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether adding a probiotic supplement (Bioithas WOMAN®) to standard antifungal medicine helps relieve symptoms of vaginal yeast infections faster. About 60 women with suspected yeast infections will take either antifungal treatment alone or with the probiotic for 4 weeks. Researchers will compare symptom relief and lab results between the two groups.
