Abstract

Diet plays an important role for equilibrium the values between acidic and basic levels in the human body which expressed as ion's hydrogen concentration. In this study fifty volunteer mature females initially participated. The female's age ranged from 18 to 36 year old. 23 females from 50 were virgins; while other 27 females were married. The pH of the vagina was assessed by the women themselves "invasively" by introduction of a special indicator paper (pH-strips). Conditions of examination: pH-strips were applied at morning before pissing for pH vaginal milieu assay. In day fourteen and for three succeeding days after of menstrual pH, diet, hormone and vagina (ecosystem) were assayed. Methods A. chemical examinations: pH vaginal milieu assay. acidifying food reaction, alkalizing food reaction. Sex hormone gonadotrophin (hCG) in urine chromatography assay and KOH test for fishy odor; B. Physical examinations: Vaginal canal temperature (VCT) Cº as indication of both vaginal infection and oxygen expenditure and specific gravity (SG) for urine; C. Hematological tests: Serum enzyme Tests as alanine aminotransferase (AST) aspartate aminotransferase (ALT) and bilirubin enzyme. D .Statistical analysis: as mean ±SD was carried out. This study results confirmed by previous investigations illustrated that diet could be affecting on pH value for vaginal milieu and could correct the vaginal discharge pH. Moreover diet could correct systemic diseases as vaginal infection.
