Jarro-Dophilus Women features the patented Astarte strains, 4 unique probiotic strains that represent the predominant vaginal Lactobacillus species found in healthy women.
Astarte’s strains were demonstrated in clinical studies to be effective in the restoration and maintenance of protective vaginal lactobacilli levels. The Astarte strains were also shown to lower vaginal pH and support vaginal microbial ecosystem balance via oral supplementation.*

A True Women's Probiotic
It takes more than just calling a probiotic formula “for women” to be true probiotic for women. Many women’s formula products do not contain any documented strains for this use or even label their product using recognized strain designations. Jarro-Dophilus® Women is the only women’s probiotic containing the four predominant vaginal strains isolated from the vaginal tract of healthy women.*
Clinical Validation of the Astarte® Blend
Vaginal microflora is a complex and dynamic organization that supports a layered defense system and is dominated by only several Lactobacilli in approximately 70% of women. Jarro-Dophilus® Women is an important development in women’s health because it uniquely contains the four patented and clinically documented Astarte strains, which are the actual predominant species found in the vaginal tract of healthy women. Multiple, high-quality clinical studies have demonstrated that the strains in Astarte® are an effective choice for vaginal health.
