Vaginal Microbiome Test

Vaginal Microbiome Test at Holistic Gynaecology Clinic London

A comprehensive DNA-based assessment of the vaginal microbiome designed to evaluate the balance of beneficial and harmful microorganisms within the vaginal environment. This advanced test may help identify underlying causes of recurrent BV, thrush, discharge, irritation, urinary symptoms, and ongoing vaginal health concerns.

The test is performed using a simple vaginal swab and provides detailed insights to support personalised and evidence-based treatment recommendations.

 We offer a dedicated 30-minute in-person consultation for your Vaginal Microbiome Test at our Oval, South London location. This consultation provides a comfortable, private setting where you’ll be guided through every step of the process by our experienced healthcare provider.

Consultation Details:

  • Duration: 30 minutes, including an in-depth discussion and the test procedure.
  • Fee: £550.
  • Methodology: Shotgun sequencing (more accurately called shotgun metagenomic sequencing) is an advanced laboratory method used to analyse all the genetic material present in a sample — for example, a vaginal microbiome swab.

    Unlike simpler microbiome tests that only look for selected bacteria, shotgun sequencing sequences all DNA fragments in the sample simultaneously.

    In vaginal microbiome testing, this means it can identify:

    • bacteria
    • fungi/yeasts
    • viruses
    • microbial diversity
    • relative abundance of organisms
    • sometimes antibiotic resistance genes
  • Results: Your results will be sent directly to you in 7 days, ensuring a quick turnaround for peace of mind.
