Summary

This study investigates the effects of postbiotic intervention on vaginal microbiota in infertile patients. Using a pre-post test design, we will enroll 15 women aged 30-45 years with at least two IVF failures. Participants will receive postbiotic intervention for 8 weeks. Vaginal secretion samples will be collected before and after treatment for 16S rRNA sequencing analysis to assess microbial composition, dominant species distribution, α-diversity index, and Lactobacillus content. Primary outcomes include changes in vaginal microbiota composition and diversity, alterations in Lactobacillus abundance, and pregnancy rates in subsequent IVF-FET cycles.

Conditions

  • Infertile Women Undergoing IVF or ICSI

Interventions

OTHER

postbiotics

Participants will self-administer postbiotic intervention via intravaginal suppositories containing purified bacteriocin peptides . The intervention consists of one suppository administered intravaginally at bedtime, once daily for 8 consecutive weeks (56 days total). Each suppository contains a standardized concentration of bacteriocins extracted from Lactobacillus strains.
