We've all heard about probiotics, or microorganisms that are beneficial to our bodies. Especially for mothers who are about to become pregnant or who want to have good hormonal balance. We found that the balance of microorganisms in the body includes beneficial microorganisms. 'Probiotics' affect estrogen (Estrogen) or our female hormones that will cause balance.
