Understanding Group B Strep with Moira Bradfield

from FX Medicine Podcast Central

Perinatal infection with group B streptococcus (GBS) is a global health issue occurring in approximately 1-4/1000 live births. There is a high mortality for neonates who acquire a group B strep infection following delivery, thus screening is now a standard feature of natal care. So what role can complementary medicine play in the co-management or prevention of GBS? Today we are joined by vaginal health expert, and founder of Intimate Ecology, Moira Bradfield, who shares her own clinical experience in supporting women who have been diagnosed with a GBS infection.
