NEW: dedicated Fertility Insights with every Evvy test ??? Groundbreaking research suggests that the vaginal microbiome plays a role in fertility—impacting everything from implantation to outcomes in IVF and IUI. Yet this information has never been widely accessible in fertility care… until now. ?? Starting today, all Evvy test results will include dedicated Fertility Insights, measuring four Microbiome Markers associated with fertility: ? Protective Score– The percent of protective bacteria. Research associates higher levels with positive fertility outcomes.1 ? Microbiome Diversity Score– How many different kinds of bacteria you have — research suggests fewer?is better. ? Fertility Disruptors– Checks for five bacteria: Fannyhassae, Gardnerella, Prevotella, Sneathia, and Ureaplasma. ? STI Screening (*add-on only) – Checks for 4 STIs: chlamydia, gonorrhea, Mycoplasma genitalium, and trich. With these insights, Evvy is bridging the gap between the latest research and real-world fertility care. ??
