Women are turning to at-home vaginal microbiome tests to address persistent issues like infections and odors, often overlooked by doctors. Farrah, a dancer from Ohio, found relief from two years of pelvic pain after a $150 test diagnosed aerobic vaginitis. Bryan Johnsons endorsement of TinyHealth sparked a boom in sales. Companies like Juno Bio, Evvy, and Daye are experiencing growth as women test for bacterial vaginosis or fertility boosts. Online communities are thriving with women sharing results and discussing protective versus harmful bacteria ratios.
