In one observational study, women whose flora was Lactobacillus-dominant at the time of embryo transfer reached clinical-pregnancy rates around 53% and implantation rates around 70%, compared with 25% and 42% in women whose microbiome was disrupted. Bacterial vaginosis, the most common form of dysbiosis, has been associated with roughly a 2.4× higher risk of early pregnancy loss after IVF and a 2–3× higher risk of preterm birth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMany ordinary lubricants and washes are not made for trying to conceive.\u003c\/strong\u003e A 2024 systematic review found that conventional lubricants containing glycerin or parabens — including some of the best-selling brands on the pharmacy shelf — can reduce sperm motility and damage chromatin integrity within minutes of contact.
