Summary
This project aims to investigate if the contraceptive method, Phexxi, causes changes to the
composition of the vaginal microbiome. The investigators hypothesize that regular use of
Phexxi will cause increased colonization of lactic acid-producing lactobacilli, which could
have positive effects in the way of preventing recurrent episodes of BV and candida
infections.
