Luvya Lab · Advertisement · A note from our founder
I was allergic to
the only thing that
was supposed to fix it.
So I stopped buying four things for my UTIs and made one.
Flush. Restore. Maintain.
I’m going to tell you this the way I'd tell a friend, because that's the only way I know how to tell it.
I'm allergic to antibiotics.
Which is a strange thing to be when your body keeps handing you the exact problem antibiotics are for.
- The UTI starts. You know before the test knows.
- Antibiotics. Fine for about a week.
- Then the yeast. Or the BV. Sometimes both.
- Something for that.
- Then your period shows up and resets the whole thing.
- Back to number one. Minus a month.
Nobody in that list is lying to you.
Your doctor treated the UTI in front of them and treated it right.
It’s the bit in between the appointments that nobody’s in charge of.
The cranberry juice
The pills that were mostly filler
The one your friend swore by
The suppositories with the timing rules
Someone telling you to drink more water, when they’ve never once been scared to sit down
Here’s where I’d
have stopped reading
If you've been at this a while, you've got a drawer.
And every single thing in that drawer was, at the time, going to be the one.
So when a founder tells you she made a better one, the honest reaction is: sure you did

So let me show you my drawer instead
Four products. Three different schedules.
One of them dosed fifteen days a month, then stopped, then started again.
That drawer was someone else's inventory plan, and I was the one funding it.
Everything on the left is a thing I bought on purpose, believing it was the missing piece.

What's
actually
in the
glass
Probiotics are freeze-dried, so they stay asleep until you wake them up in water.
D-Mannose
2 g
L. crispatus
2.5 billion CFU
L. rhamnosus + L. reuteri
3 billion CFU
2.5 billion CFU
L. gasseri
2 billion CFU
B. breve
10 billion CFU
GOS
1 g
Vitamin C + D3
60 mg
25 mcg
D-Mannose
2 g
The dose used in clinical research, in a single serving, working alongside the five strains rather than on its own. D-Mannose helps reduce the ability of unwanted bacteria to stick to bladder walls, supporting normal urinary tract function.
L. crispatus
2.5 billion CFU
The species that dominates the vaginal microbiota in many healthy women. Harder to keep alive than the others. I put it in anyway.
L. rhamnosus + L. reuteri
3 billion CFU
2.5 billion CFU
The pair most often studied together in women's health research. Supports healthy vaginal pH.
L. gasseri
2 billion CFU
One of the predominant Lactobacillus species found in a healthy vaginal microbiome. Supports healthy vaginal pH.
B. breve
10 billion CFU
The gut-side member of the squad. Supports overall microbiome diversity and supports immune health.
GOS
1 g
Food for the lactobacilli, in the same scoop as the strains, so they go in with their food already packed.
Vitamin C + D3
60 mg
25 mcg
Supports immune health.
The reason it's a drink is duller than the science. You remember a drink you look forward to. I make it the way I make coffee, and that's the only reason I'm still taking it on day 40.
Thirty days to decide. If you don’t love it, we refund it.
What to expect, honestly
Nobody's microbiome turns around in a week.
Anyone promising that is selling you a fantasy.
Day 1 to 2
D-Mannose reaches your urinary tract within about an hour of drinking it and clears within the day. The probiotics start their transit. Will you notice anything? No. You're drinking a pink drink. That's the point of a ritual: easy enough that day 40 looks exactly like day 1.
Days 3 to 10
Two servings a day. More going in while your system is being recolonised. Some women notice changes in discharge or scent. That's your microbiome adjusting. It isn't a verdict on whether this is working.
Weeks 2 to 4
In research on oral lactobacilli, this is the window where the strains make the trip and begin establishing. Changes in discharge, consistency or pH often even out around here. Some women notice nothing at all, and that's normal too.
Weeks 4 to 8
The window where studies of oral lactobacilli measured the most colonisation and the clearest shift in vaginal parameters. Vitamin D moves on a slower clock than everything else in the canister, over months instead of weeks. This is the honest checkpoint.
Two servings in a day is the ceiling. Individual experiences vary. Talk to your healthcare provider about any symptoms or concerns.
Here's the part most brands leave out.
This only works if you’re consistently taking it. Colonisation isn't permanent, which is why the answer is a daily habit instead of a course you finish.
It's also why we offer a 30-day guarantee, to ensure you love the results. I'd rather be generous than clever about that.
Thirty days to make sure you love it

It works while you take it, so it’s meant to sit next to the coffee for as long as you want it there. You can pause it, skip a month, or stop, from your account.
Look at the table above. Every strain and every dose is on it. Hold it up against whatever didn’t work for you, and if that label only gives you one big total number, well. There you go.
Some women notice changes in discharge or scent in the first week or two while the microbiome adjusts, which is why the timeline above tells you to expect it before you buy rather than after. If it’s not for you, finish the canister, let us know, and we refund it.
Talk to your healthcare provider. We don’t know what else you’re taking, and I’m not going to pretend otherwise.

One more thing
I built this because I wanted it when I was at my most desperate state, and it didn’t exist.
That’s the whole origin story. There’s no lab coat behind it.
If that drawer full of “fixes” hasn’t worked for you, taking this once a day is worth trying risk-free for thirty days.
Yours,
Brooke
P.S. If you get to week three and start wondering whether anything is happening, go back and read the timeline. That’s exactly where I’d have quit on myself.
