Vaginal diagnostics

Vaginal microbiome

A deep analysis of your vaginal flora at species level: which lactobacilli protect you — and which dysbiosis organisms upset the balance? You take the sample at home with the innovative Evalyn Brush.

Sample typeVaginal swab (Evalyn Brush)
MethodMolecular genetic sequencing
Turnaround7–21 days from sample arrival
AnalysisPartner laboratory in Germany
Evaluation usually takes 7–21 days from the arrival of your sample at the laboratory, not from the order date. We let you know as soon as your results are in.
  • Analysis at species level Not just “good” or “bad”, but exactly which Lactobacillus species are present
  • Evalyn Brush A rotating self-sampling brush for a large, even sample
  • Sample collection at home You take it yourself, no doctor's visit needed
  • Results consultation included Evaluation by the expert team

Principle

Measure first, then decide

Without measured values, any treatment is guesswork. We turn the order around: first the lab report, then the decision.

Consultation to put the measured values in context
  1. 01
    Measure Vaginal bacterial flora at species level from one swab, analysed at the partner laboratory in Germany.
    Vaginales Mikrobiom · vaginal swab (Evalyn Brush) · 7–21 days from sample arrival
  2. 02
    See where you stand Every value appears in the lab report with the laboratory's reference range. You can see which values fall inside it and which do not.
    Lab report including a results consultation
  3. 03
    Targeted instead of general Instead of a standard package you take what your values point to — agreed with a practitioner.
    Initial consultation 10 minutes, free
  4. 04
    Measure again after a few months The same analysis a second time shows how the values have changed.
    Earliest sensible interval: 3 months

Ory experts are there for you

All along the way, doctors and Heilpraktiker from the Ory team are there for you — with your lab report and everything after it.

Initial consultation

What a value means, and whether a supplement is right for you, is something to discuss with a practitioner. This page makes no recommendation and is no substitute for medical assessment.

Details

What this analysis covers

What is measured

The vaginal bacterial flora at species level — which lactobacilli protect it, which dysbiosis organisms disturb it.

V712 Lactobacillus species L. crispatus, L. iners, L. jensenii and other protective organisms
V712 Dysbiosis organisms Gardnerella, Prevotella, Mobiluncus and others
V712 pH value An additional marker for the vaginal balance

The biomarker reference explains what lies behind the numbers: how values interact, which cofactors are involved and which biochemical processes take place in the body — for all values and areas, not only this analysis.

To the biomarker reference

For whom

The test suits you with recurring complaints, a disturbed vaginal balance or persistent infections whose microbiological cause you want clarified at species level.

What a single value means in your situation is something to discuss with a practitioner. It does not replace medical assessment.

How it works

Four steps from order to lab report.

  1. 01 Kit arrives Ships the next working day, postage paid to your door.
  2. 02 Take the sample You take it yourself at home with the Evalyn Brush.
  3. 03 Send it in Send it in the postage-paid envelope.
  4. 04 Get your lab report 7–21 days after the sample arrives.

Instructions

The essentials first:

  • Insert the Evalyn Brush as described in the instructions and take the sample with a rotating movement.
  • Put the brush back into the transport tube and close it firmly.
  • Send it in the postage-paid envelope, as soon as possible after taking the sample.

Please read the instructions carefully. Correct preparation matters: it is what allows your sample – stool, urine, saliva or blood – to be evaluated cleanly and meaningfully.

Family and partner diagnostics

Testing together shows connections that a single analysis does not reveal. We need three things for that.

Clear details per person For each person tested we need a name and date of birth, so the laboratory can match everything correctly.
An email address of their own Each person needs an individual email address for secure digital access. If that is not possible, we send the results as a PDF to a shared address.
Clear labelling Samples and forms must each be assigned to exactly the right person.

From three tests of the same analysis for the family you get 10 % off. Write to us and you will receive your own discount code.

Reimbursement by private insurance

For possible reimbursement by your private insurer, this is how it works with us:

01 A short online conversation with one of our therapists We go through your symptoms and take a brief medical history.
02 A referral for the matching lab tests After the conversation you receive a referral that you can submit to your private insurer.

Many private insurers cover the cost in full or in part – some not at all. That depends entirely on your policy. We support you through the process as best we can.
