IINH (The International Institute of Nutrition & Health, formerly The Irish Institute of Nutrition & Health) was established in 2002 by Richard Burton, a qualified nutritionist with decades of experience in clinical work and education. Our purpose at IINH has always been to empower students with practical nutrition knowledge and skills to achieve sound health – and then train them to help others on the same path. IINH was the first college in Ireland with accredited diplomas in both Nutritional Therapy and Nutrition & Health Coaching. The college also offers a range of short courses that are packed with practical information, instruction and insights. Courses are online, allowing you to study from convenience of your own home!

The vaginal ecosystem is a dynamic and highly regulated environment shaped by hormonal signalling, microbial communities, and mucosal immunity. Across the lifespan — from puberty through reproductive years and into menopause — fluctuations in oestrogen and progesterone profoundly influence microbial composition, epithelial integrity, pH balance, and host defence mechanisms. Disruption to this delicate interplay can contribute to vaginal dysbiosis, recurrent infections, and wider urogenital or systemic symptoms.

This webinar explores the functional relationships between hormones, microbes, and mucosal tissues, providing a clinically relevant framework for understanding vaginal health and dysfunction. Drawing on current research, participants will gain clarity on how to recognise imbalance and apply practical reasoning to real-world case scenarios.
