1. Since it is only Floragen that was used as the "drug used". Is there a comparable probiotic that can be identified with it? How much lactobacillus, etc in it?
2. Sample size is small, in the next two years, is the sample population going to be increased?
3. I would like to be updated of the result of the upcoming study. Do you have like a twitter or instagram account that we can follow?

I would not disagree, except with your use of "doctor". This practice that I am studying came out of the midwifery community. Many midwifes such as myself, do recommend prenatal probiotics. I have published a number of articles on the benefits for pregnant and non pregnant women. For example, there are many studies that show that prenatal probiotic ingestion can reduce atopic allergies (e.g. eczema) in children by 50%! A barrier to more wide spread use is the lack of knowledge about how to chose a high quality probiotic supplement. Opinions abound and are sometimes influenced by people who have a vested interest in a particular company. Another barrier is cost. Probiotics are an over the counter nonprescription supplement that some women cannot afford. Thank you

I located a prenatal with a probiotic in it by rainbow light called prenatal one, in case you’re interested. As someone who has been told I am heavily colonized with GBS I am very interested in your study. I have done a lot of research too and have found that vitamin D and C help with keeping the infection low for GBS and I personally would be taking probiotics, antibiotics from beginning of pregnancy until the end of pregnancy and the baby would take it the first 3 months per the high risk doctors, with my infectious disease doctor, and pet research my fertility doctor did, and I would be using keifer and kombucha as well as have a diet rich in leafy greens to help flush the digestive track. I lost 2 babies (separate pregnancies) in utero due to GBS in the second trimesters.
