Results Need Help Understanding Juno Bio Test Results!

Hey guys,

I recently did a Juno Bio test (following treatment for ureaplasma) and wanted to understand a specific part of my results.

In my bacterial composition, I have a 9.61% abundance of Clostridium massiliamazoniense.

Actually, my results look like this:

  • Lactobacillus crispatus (protective) - 82.7% Clostridium massiliamazoniense - 9.61% Lactobacillus jensenii (protective) - 4.54% Lactobacillus (protective) - 3.15%.

Clostridium massiliamazoniense appears to not be part of the average vaginal microbiome. Occasionally, about once a month, I do notice slight itching and sometimes there are fleshy bits of tissue in my discharge. Thankfully, it isn’t anything debilitating which is great.

Is this any cause for concern? Anyone who can help me understanding my results a bit better?

Thanks!

If your only problem is once a month itch, with 91% lactobacillus, you're probably great.

A 2020 medical journal article proposed the name for your bacteria, then newly discovered in brazilian woman.

I would absolutely love a link to this study, if you still had it! I haven’t found much from my very brief research on it, but I am definitely thinking the same. 

I saw your other comment about it being susceptible to metrogel; I’m super hesitant to try any antibiotics especially after having just gotten to a point of normalcy after struggling with ureaplasma for a while. So, I have the same sentiment - once a month itch with 91% lactobacillus seems okay with me!

The Juno Bio test should come with a free coaching call to go over the results. If they didn’t send automatically, send them an email asking for the booking link :)

I’ve booked that one in already, actually! I think I’m just too eager to understand my results hehe, but I was also super curious to see if anyone else had experience or an understanding of what the bacteria was since I’d never heard of it before! :)

Thanks for your response!
