Kourtney Kardashian Gets Doctor To Defend Her New Vaginal Gummies As Fans Call It 'Harmful And 'Fake'

Reality TV star Kourtney Kardashian has fired back at critics who claimed her Lemme products do not work by sharing a video of a medical practitioner talking about it.

After releasing the supplements, Kourtney came under fire from fans and medical professionals. Some claimed that the products, especially her Lemme Purr gummies, didn't work, and others labeled them "harmful."

The reality star recently sparked concerns online after posting a photo on Instagram showing a lump on her arm. As a result, fans started a social media debate about what the lump might be.

Read on for more details.

The "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star adopted the same energy of followers and other medical professionals who said her vitamin supplements, specifically Lemme Purr, don't work.

Kourtney, 43, shared a video in which a medical doctor went all in to explain how the vagina works and the advantages the probiotics boast of.

"The vagina is self-cleansing and generally takes care of itself," Dr. Kathleen Valenton, a board-certified OB-GYN and M.D. at Rodeo Drive Women's Health Center, said in the TikTok video.

She continued, "But there are few things that can throw off the vaginal flora. Things like stress, sex, excessive vaginal bleeding, douching, and antibiotics."

The physician contended that a probiotic like Kourtney's Lemme Purr, which contains the unique lactic-acid-producing coagulant known as SNZ-1969, helps buffer the effects of these setbacks on the vagina.

The Lemme founder came under fire from fans and followers after she debuted the vaginal gummies, which many shared were "harmful" and "pushing a myth."

One follower wrote, "Another example of marketing unnecessary projects to women to make them feel insecure enough to buy it."

"So you're concerned that vaginal health isn't talked about enough, and your solution is to market an unnecessary product that preys on women's insecurities?" another fan penned, adding, "Imagine if you did something meaningful instead, like helping fund a health campaign or clinic visits for low-income women."

One puzzled person asked, "It's 2023, and we're still trying to capitalize off of a woman's insecurities? The Kardashians really do a great job at doing exactly that, and now this?!"

"Weaponizing the patriarchy for profit is misogyny. Promoting misinformation regarding women's health is just a vile thing to do - be a better human Kardashian," another fan wrote.

"This is just dumb! How are people buying into this?" a peeved fan asked. "This specific body part is literally self-cleaning and doesn't need no gummies to make it 'healthy'... Your body will literally tell you if something's up. Anything to make money, fgs."

The mother of three recently shared photos of herself on Instagram, showing off a new blonde hairstyle, but something else seemed to detract from her good looks.

After sharing the photo, some individual became concerned upon spotting a mysterious "lump" on her arm and didn't shy away from pointing it out.

"Doesn't she know to check before posting? What's that on her arm?" a fan pointed out.

Another wrote, "What is that on your arm? You should really get that checked; it could be serious."

Fans of the business mogul were quick to point out that there was nothing abnormal about the lump, with someone calling it a "boob spillage."

"It's literally just skin pushed up from a tight top. All these comments are why they all edit everything so much," another fan noted.

Fans pointed out that the reality TV star's sense of style has changed since she wed Travis Barker. They questioned her decision to bleach her son's hair in a recent Instagram post.

"WTH happened to you, Kourtney? You've lost yourself. It's sad really," a fan highlighted.

Another fan said, "I used to think she was the classiest of all the Kardashians' daughters, but she has turned out to be yuck yuck yucky."

"I miss how classy and gorgeous she used to look," one fan penned.

Kourtney certainly does not let the negative comments get to her and tends to call them out when necessary. A fan critiqued her style, stating, "She used to be so classy! Wonder what her family thinks of her new style?" to which Kardashian replied, "Ooooh inquiring minds would like to know this is so fascinating."
