Looking for recommendations on a good Probiotic

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I am currently 10.5 wks pg and found out last week through a urine culture that I am + for GBS. I have had a couple of UTIs in the past year so this isn't too surprising. The dr put me on abx and I can tell it is messing with my system big time.

I have read that probiotics can help fight off the GBS, and I know it is good to take after abx. Does anyone have one they recommend? I do not have a health food store near me, so getting a refrigerated one is out of the question unless I can find someone that ships. I bought Accuflora to try for now.

I would get one with the strains that have been specifically studied for vaginal health either Jarrow Femdophilus with l. rhamnosus and l. reuteri or Pharmax Mindlinx with l. rhamnosus and l. crispatus.

Thanks for those recommendations. I think I can get it the Jarrow from Amazon with 1 day shipping. I looked on the package of Accuflora and at least it does contain the L. rhamnosus in it so I think that will help me for now.
