Naturally increasing Lactobacillus crispatus helps maintain a healthy vaginal microbiome and also helps prevent bacterial vaginosis and urinary tract infections. Here are some ways to increase Lactobacillus crispatus levels:
1. Eat foods rich in probiotics
Regular consumption of fermented dairy products (such as yogurt, kefir, etc.) and fermented vegetables (such as sauerkraut, kimchi, etc.) are rich in probiotics and are very helpful for the body to naturally increase Lactobacillus crispatus.
Regularly taking probiotic supplements, such as strains such as Lactobacillus crispatus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, or Lactobacillus reuteri, is also very helpful.
2. Prebiotic foods
Prebiotics provide nutrition for beneficial bacteria, such as foods such as garlic, onions, leeks, asparagus, bananas, oats, and resistant starch (cool potatoes, green bananas).
3. Actively avoid factors that disrupt the vaginal microbiome, such as the use of restricted antibiotics and vaginal douching.
Use mild, unscented soap to maintain private hygiene, and choose breathable cotton underwear to reduce moisture.
4. Maintain a healthy pH (3.8–4.5)
Reduce sugar intake, as high sugar levels promote the growth and proliferation of harmful bacteria, and stay hydrated to support mucosal health.
5. Lifestyle factors
Control stress, get enough sleep, and practice safe sex.
6. Use vaginal probiotics
Some women benefit from suppositories containing L. crispatus strains (e.g., LACTIN-V in clinical trials).

Lactobacillus Crispatus Powder
Lactobacillus crispatus HH-LC23 is a common, rod-shaped species of genus Lactobacillus and is a hydrogen peroxide producing beneficial microbiota species located in both the vagina, through vaginal discharge, and the vertebrate gastrointestinal tract. The strain can be used by premenopausal and postmenopausal women that experience recurrent urinary tract infections. It is being evaluated specifically for the prevention and treatment of bacterial vaginosis, which is characterized by the absence of lactobacillus flora necessary to protect the host.
