vH essentials Prebiotic pH Balanced Vaginal Suppositories, 15 Count | Prebiotic vaginal suppositories naturally restore pH balance and protect against feminine odor. 15 count box.

A few months ago I stopped taking the probiotics because the ones I had been using (rephresh pro b) were expensive at $20 for a 1 month supply. But upon stopping it I began a cycle of BV. It would be releived by antibiotics and come back. I did not want to do the antibiotics again. That stuff is so nasty for your body. This product was a last resort for me. I have used all the prescriptions, all the OTC meds, and several homeopathic remedies. Nothing has been a solution. I would only get a few days relief (after a long try) and the smell would come back, usually worse than ever. I decided to combine this product with the use of probiotics(different brand which is around $12 for a 2 month supply -fem flora by Swanson ultra). The femflora has the same CFU bacterial count at 2.4billion (2.5 in the rephresh) plus other beneficial bacteria which may also help you repopulate the bacteria you've killed with your rounds of antibiotics. I was skeptical of this product at first because it doesnt actually contain any of the beneficial bacteria, it would simply facilitate the bacterial growth I want. Which seems better than artificially planting the bacteria there (which can be expensive at $50 for a highly rated one on amazon). So after just two days use, the probiotic and prebiotic combo seems to be working. There is no smell or discharge, and I feel clean again. I will continue a full course of 15 suppositories and will update 1 week after finishing them. (approx 7/27/14). I will also continue the use of the probiotics in order to keep a supply of good bacteria going. How to use: I found this product easy to use despite no real instructions. I simply cut open the packaging and stuck the suppository on the applicator and inserted it. The applicator is not all that great. If you have leftover applicators from a monistat suppository treatment I would use those instead. I would use this at night. Once it is inserted it will melt, laying down will help the product stay in. Another user suggested using a tampon so that it does not leak out. I used this the first night but I felt as if allowing the oxygen to get in would help the process because the bacteria which cause BV such as Gardenella are anaerobic (non oxygen loving). So do not wear your favorite underwear with this. A note about yeast. I believe that having this product would also help those with chronic yeast because it has been shown that a balance of good bacteria helps establish a good balance of yeast as well. So this may also be worth giving a shot for that issue. Overall I am very please at the moment with this product. And I was very encourage to read reviews about women who have used it for several years with great success. ** A note on the price, I purchased these for 8.99 for each box. HOwever it is on another website for 6.99 with free shipping and a subscribe ans save discount of 20%. Not sure if I can post the name of that site on here. However, just do a search and it would be easy to find. I will be ordering it in the future from that vendor because Amazon cannot price match other website due to supplier costs. But amazon is great if you need an emergency supply right now. ** UPDATE ** I ended up giving up on this for a while because it seems to get worse rather than better. But I decided to give it another try. It does seem to get worse before it gets better without any other methods. So I decided to do a peroxide douche (1/4 Hydrogen Peroxide 3/4 distilled water) for 5 days 2x a day while doing this simultaneously. It seemed to get rid of the big infection so that the prebiotics could work on building up the good bacteria. I continued using the prebiotics afterwards and the difference is apparent. THere is no smell or discharge and I feel normal again. I ended up finding that using half of the suppository works just as well and is not as messy. I just cut it in half with clean scissors and it goes into the applicator just fine.

a convenient and effective option for women looking to support healthy vaginal pH and maintain freshness. The fragrance-free formula combines prebiotics, probiotics, lactic acid, vitamin E, and hyaluronic acid to help promote a balanced vaginal environment while providing soothing moisture and comfort. Many users appreciate that the suppositories are easy to use and help reduce odor and dryness without causing irritation. The addition of hyaluronic acid and vitamin E leaves tissues feeling hydrated, making them especially beneficial during times of hormonal changes or after antibiotic use. As with any intimate care product, results can vary from person to person, and those with persistent symptoms should consult a healthcare provider. Overall, these suppositories are a gentle, well-formulated product that many users find effective for maintaining vaginal health and confidence.

Ok this is my 2nd time ordering! This product works! Let me explain.... Obviously if you are reading these reviews on amazon you are either a). a frustrated female who needs help, b.) is desperate for a clean feeling Vah-jayjay OR c). you are the man/husband of the female who needs this product and your trying to help her or yourself cuz this can seriously destroy her ability to be comfortable and secure with you in your private moments. LOL Let's cover what it does: 1. removes any and all odor. 2. Keeps the Vah-jayjay fresh and clean feeling and smelling even after washing. 3. Helps with discharge. (If ur unsure c a doctor) 4. Considerably helps with bacteria infections and works to maintain a 'healthy', 'balanced' environment as it relates to our girly parts. Best way to use: 1. after your evening shower (or just before you go to bed) insert 'up and into' your vah-jayjay. Push it waaaaay up in there. You want that good bacteria to get waaaaaay up in there so as to fully do it's work. Comes with an applicator but i got tired of washing the applicator after each use so i preferred to use my fingers and push it up in there, way up there ladies. Can't put enough emphasis on the 'waaaaaay' part! laugh ....seriously! 2. put a thin panty liner on and go to bed OR lay down for a long time. 3. You want the good bacteria to stay in there and do it's work while you sleep. yes it may leak out but only a little but who cares right. i make sure to turn on all sides except i'm not a back sleeper, so as to coat all sides fully during the night. 4. The liquid that comes out is like water, clear, non-smelling. The liner absorbs the liquid and by the morning time with your first pee of the day it's pretty much all out. You can remove the panty liner and go on about your day or replace it for a few hours if your want to feel safe. My experience: I will forever and always use this product. I get so annoyed and frustrated just thinking about how women are NEVER told about good bacteria and the need for it. The dr, nor gynecologist...etc. EVER discussed this with me. I had no clue to ask either. Good bacteria for our lady parts is SO IMPORTANT, infact .....required!!!! My struggle started when i was in my 20's with the dr telling me to wash better, REALLY!? how dumb is that ......obviously i'm coming to you for help because i already did that repeatedly!!! ....now what doc!? after many years of being annoyed and frustrated...... and giving up on every finding the solution. Fast forward to today, FINALLY!!!!!!! ........with this product i now have a fresh, ph balanced, healthy vahjayay!!! It's awesome too, my husband will agree! I stumbled upon this product, like you, reading reviews because i needed help for a bacteria infection i developed. Before reading these reviews i went online to get info/research on the issue and was horrified and depressed to read about the desperate women who suffer from constant problems with our girly parts, for years, mind you. So i knew i had to BE SMART and find the SOLUTION because i wasn't willing to suffer from a bacteria infection again. (My husband also was so sensitive in helping me so he looked in medical books about bacteria infections...etc. He's so sweet! .......Not in 'manly feminine' way - it was more of a....... 'manly .....let me help YOU, help ME honey!' kind of way cuz it affected him too!) Laugh! How I personally use this product: while i was using monostat to get rid of my hot as FIRE, ITCHY, vah-jayjay symptoms! ...not kiddin' (i can laugh about it now but it wasn't funny then). I inserted one every night for a week. A reviewer posted some good tips on using it at night which i readily applied and will speak to below. Within that time ( a week) not only did the infection go away but the smell was gone. What!? noooooohhhh.......WHAT!!!!???? ....are you kidding me, ....wow! i was floored. and i mean the smell was gone for days after i stopped using the product. So with my main goal accomplished - which was to get rid of the bacteria in-balance, which cleared up the infection. I was ecstatic and empowered to perform some tests with the product. My 2nd goal was to test this out more thoroughly. So!..... i knew that if i stopped using the product my vagina and all it's parts would quickly get out of balance and an over growth of some type of bacteria would return. That's just natural fact and i get that! But i wanted to know for how long could i go without taking the product before i started to smell again. With the help of my husbands feedback in conjunction with my tests i found - that for me personally i can use the product, as indicated above, every 3 days and stay clean and fresh smelling. a perfect functioning V. That is, one application for every 3 days (ofcourse i probably used it daily for 2 weeks straight prior to my tests) ....Not bad, i'll take that. I am 'inlove' with this product, it is my secret weapon and i feel so empowered and confident knowing and..... FEELLING super clean when i get out of the shower, that i can go my entire day 24hrs and be fresh and clean, even for days after discontinued use. At almost 50yrs old i was finally able to have a moment with myself where i said, 'Now this is how my V is supposed to be!' Only a female can truly appreciate that. For the price of this product AND if you are having any difficulty with your plumbing downstairs i strongly suggest you just try this product and see how quickly your body just soaks it up, responds to it, and loves this product. It is a SHAME that i had to wait what.....30 some years before i could finally achieve a healthy V, REALLY!? ...Now that's just sad,....... that women are not helped more by dr's and those in the medical field. To have no uncomfortable moments, with your husband, and to have confidence and to feel good about my body and V while with or without my man is priceless! i'm sorry..........i didn't emphasize that enough!.......PRICELESS! That would be a great commercial to play during super bowl! 'Pre-biotics for your Vah-jayjay! for that not so fresh feeling.' .....laugh..... i would seriously love to write the material for that baby.....would be a hoot! sorry back to the subject........ Now what have i tried over the years (since my 20's); to remove the odor even after washing, which did help some what but never as fully and completely as this product? Here is my list: Various supplements including super expensive probiotics by mouth (never helped even a tiny bit, infact! that can often alter my smell and not in a positive way) apple cider vinegar (after washing pour in hand and rub it all over and let it dry, no rinsing no dilution) Colloidal Sliver Spray (after washing spray all over vagina) this was more helpful than the above 2 listed items. 3% sulfur soap (before washing lather your girly parts up and let sit while in the shower washing other body parts, then finish with rinsing and washing V again with regular soap. And YES this burns, uuuummmmm .......yeah that's all i'll say about that one! LOL ) This was even better then the above but i liked to use in conjunction with the silver spray. I used the last two items for YEARS because it helped me manage the issue; but i still suffered in silence and shear confusion until i did research on good bacteria and tried this product. I am happy to say i do NOT NEED any of those items any longer. I just ordered another box today as i will be using my last one tonight. i am not able to find them in stores but i am happy to order online. I will use good bacteria on and in my girly parts until the day i die people!!! I'm not kidding, this is serious business for a woman. The beauty of this is it's SO SIMPLE, it makes sense, it works very effectively! Be patient and watch the changes over the course of a week. I'm not a dr, nor am i telling anyone what to do, this is my experience, this is fact, of which i can absolutely speak too because i am a WOMAN, and two i have suffered with and tried to manage..... for years..... female issues, and I know what it feels like to endure infections. I am happy to also say that i feel very confident that i will not be getting any type of infection again, as it relates to my bacteria being out of whack. I am finally, after 49 years, at peace with my V!!! LOL, ....now i just have to keep managing my menopause symptoms Which is a whole 'nother story!!! (which i do quite nicely after research and trial and error) ....i need to live a long and happy, healthy life as i turn 60, 70, 80 and beyond. Thanks for spending time with me, i enjoyed it! ....AND if you are anything like me ......when you can't sleep because of any of these issues and was up at 2 in the morning, in bed, reading amazon reviews, in the dark....... with the dim light on your cell phone......with my readers on.....LOL....... then i hope i was of some help!! I am happy to answer questions about the product and my use of it but am not a dr so if you want medical advice call your dr please. :D Be patient but never give up, there are answers out there, there is hope, we as women do NOT have to suffer or put up with a problem for years on end. it's not fair, it's not right, so never give up in finding 'your' answers, that are right for 'your' body!!!! You are worth it and you deserve it!!! Peace and Love! xox UPDATE: 5/2/2019 Still goin' strong! don't have to use as frequently throughout the week. Infact i haven't used this for a couple months now. Seems like the longer you use this product the more good it does in keeping you ph balanced. Still lovin' this product, a must for female health!! And keep this product on hand always. UPDATE: 10\23\2025 Stopped using this product 4awhile. Cleaned out my linen closet recently, found it and started back using this. I bought the tablet version that is inserted. Interesting!.... But just as effective! Yes it still requires a thin pad. I only use it once every 7-14 days Iwill 4ever use this product. Oh n this time i bought the wipes and the wash in the squeeze bottle. These 3 are the absolute best, hands down!! Iswear u dont need any thing else. Idid try a product off of tiktok, it was pink, didnt do a thing! Who doesnt want a vanilla, coconut or strawberry vahjayjay! Duh! Laff. I Will never stray again! Very grateful 4this product becuz it consistently works.

***UPDATE 12/02/17*** Im still going strong with these pills. While my habits as a child may have started the BV my periods are what’s throwing my pH out of whack and keeping the BV around. I put one in the last night of my cycle and one in the night after that and I’m great for the whole month. Im sure our true issue lie behind our heavy diet of unnatural and over processed foods, but these supposotories have made me feel normal and that’s something I haven’t been able to feel for nearly 20 years (I’m 27). These are great and for as long as they sell them and I need them, I will buy them. I don’t even take the other supplements/vitamins I mentioned in previous updates anymore. None of those are needed. Just these. This is NOT a one and done type of deal though. If that was the case it would come in packs of one. My suggestion would be to go to the doctor, get one more round of meds to clear everything out. On the last day of your meds, insert one of these and do that for 5-7 nights. If your cycle is your trigger, do what I do and insert one on the last day and one the day after. It actually helps pull any “leftovers” down instead of letting them linger around in there for hours (or days for some) before it all trickles down. It’s worth it. I only need them directly after my cycle, so until I figure out how to change the pH in my menstrual discharge or find a way to make my pump I’m less sensitive. I’m happy with this low maintenance remedy! Good luck to all! ***UPDATE 09/25/2017*** So far so good! I got the feeling that the BV was trying to flare back up after my cycle. By then I'd run out of Femdophilus (taking two a day) and I while I waited for a new order I just plopped in a BV Essentials suppository from the last day of my cycle (mostly spotting) til a few days after the end of it. Apparently my cycle IS my trigger, so I'll be using the suppositories for 2-3 after each cycle but it feels GREAT to be back to normal down there without having to run back to the doctor! I haven't even opened the other Femdophilus bottle, it's sitting in my fridge. I found that Zinc works just as well and it's cheaper, too! So I don't take the BV Essentials cranberry vitamins or the Femdophilus anymore, but I still take the Now Acidophilus and Zinc pills daily (one or two of each everyday). I haven't been entirely consistent with taking the supplements considering I often miss a couple days or more a week, but it hasn't made a difference because I'm still BV FREE! (08/14/17) I've had BV since I was about 6-7 years old, but I didn't know what it was until I was about 14. It's not directly my fathers fault, but I was raised by him as an only child and he never taught me that I needed to wipe front to back, so I was wiping back to front (because it was easier for me) until I had my first period on my 12th birthday while I was at my moms house. I remember her saying, "Don't forget to ALWAYS wipe front to back," Thanks mom, for deciding to teach me that 12 years into my life. Freaking Awesome. I'm 26 now and I only had treatment for it when I was 16 and it came back, but I just did things to hide the smell until I was 18 and could go to the doctor without a parent because I didn't want my mom or my dad thinking any less of me by taking me to a doctor for vaginal odor (I know it may sound silly, but I was a child, so I thought like one). I've tried every natural remedy and prescribed medication that I could find and nothing has kept BV at bay for long. If I did get rid of it, it would come back right after my period. I've gone to a vegetarian diet and that decresed the amount of discharge, but didn't rid me of the infection. So, I've come to the conclusion that I need extensive therapy with a mix of remedies over a decent period of time to keep it away and I've heard a lot of good things about Jarrow Formulas femdophilus, so hopefully it will work for me. I had a prescription for metronidazole to take three times a day for 10 days. I know it kills all the bacteria, so I came up with a plan. I just so happened to finish the last of my medication the day before my period l, so the next day (day 1 of cycle) I took two femdophilus pills and I will continue to take two every single day for about 6 months to keep the good bacteria in place. As soon as my cycle is over I'm going to start my VH Essentials Prebiotic Vaginal Suppositories (I got the 15 pack), along with the VH Essentials Probiotics with Prebiotics & Cranberry pills once a day and the Now Acidophilus 2Billion pill once a day. A week after I run out of the suppositories I will start inserting a boric acid capsule once or twice a week (whichever I feel is needed), but DEFINITELY directly after my period, as I feel it could be throwing my pH out of whack. Boric Acid is something that I've tried before with great results, but I was trying it while I had an active infection. I doubt it will kill an active infection, so I assume it's best used as a preventative rather than as a cure. I know it sounds like a lot, but I've had this issue for about 20 years, so I'm willing to do whatever it is I need to do to feel normal. I will update my progress here and under the other products I have purchased through Amazon to keep any ladies in my position updated. Wish me luck! P.S. I do keep the bottle refrigerated because that's what the bottle says and I've heard over the years that products that require refrigeration work the best. UPDATE:: 9/11/17 This has definitely kept me regular after my period. I just got off my period again and I'm going to insert another tonight. So far so good! It's not a hassle and my husband understands that his semen could be throwing me off just as much as my period, so maybe 30mins after we've had sex (we are TTC) I wash off and insert one of these or a boric acid pill and go to sleep. I have to be diligent in making sure that I whatever MIGHT throw my pH out of whack will need to be followed up with an insert as precaution. Prevention is the best medicine.

One use and it was already working better than anything else I’ve tried. I use lume soap, used boric acid suppositories, medicated wipes, pre and probiotics. Nothing worked faster than this product. My ph is thrown off so easily so when my husband and I have sex it instantly brings on “the smell”. I’ve been prescribed UTI meds and BV meds. Prescription meds temporarily work but nothing is fighting the smell aspect and it comes with a whole other set of problems/symptoms. I’ve only used it 3 times but I’m really hopeful. No smell, no burning. I usually wear a liner the next day since I insert it in the mornings. I’ll update my review if things change but so far so good.

This stuff is great! WARNING: Long review ahead. This stuff is great! I was officially diagnosed with BV two days after Valentines Day this year, but I suspected I had it since January. I believe it was a combination of a new boyfriend and an overdose of taking a bath with a bath bomb, bubble bath, and scented bath salts and sitting in it for 2 hours. I know now that was a big mistake, and will never happen again. Noone had ever told me that was unhealthy for the vagina. Anyway, I took clindamycin pills, but they did not work. I don't like taking medicine, so I tried lots of home remedies such as apple cider vinegar and peroxide baths/douches. None of that cured it, and sex made it worse. Although peroxide did help with temporary relief and minimized the smell. I changed soaps from Summer's Eve to Dr. Bronners Peppermint soap. The peppermint soap helped reduce swelling and itching but did nothing for the discharge. As soon as the discharge touched the outside of my vulva, I would start itching again and would have to take another bath or keep washing. I would take about two-three showers daily while washing myself in between. I tried vitamin c pills, well one tablet, and it burned so badly I could barely walk straight. As I searched for another remedy, as I believe all natural things can be cured by naturally, I came across this product. I was searching for soaps with a lower PH to help balance my vagina when this product came recommended. After reading reviews, I felt this would rid my BV. I could not wait until bedtime after I received the item in the mail Sunday morning. I douched with 3% peroxide to clean out all the bacteria whether good or bad. I mean I was about to load myself up with good bacteria anyway. Using gloves, I opened a PRObiotic capsule and wet it a bit to form a paste. I rolled the PREbiotic bullet suppository in it and placed it in the applicator. I pushed it as far as it would go. A couple of hours later my underwear was soaked, but it didn't have a smell, and it was clear like water. When I went to the bathroom to pee, I wiped and noticed I did not have any thick yellow smelly discharge. It took about 12 hours for the suppository to come out. The next morning, when I had to pee, I noticed some yellow discharge but the smell was very faint. After I came back home from the gym and running errands, I had stains of thick white discharge in my underwear. However, the discharge was not as much as it was before the suppository. BV would leave my underwear soaked. After I showered, I forgot to wear a liner as I always do because of the heavy leakage BV would leave. After hours of running around, I checked my underwear and no discharge. By that night, I had a dime size amount which is normal. I inserted the suppository again, but this time during bedtime. This morning I woke up and my underwear and shorts were soaked, but I did not mind. I am writing this review at work, and currently, I am not experiencing any itching or discomfort. Before I started this treatment, I could not sit down for thirty minutes without itching. I would go through all the castile soap wipes in my job's first aid kit to stop the itching. I have not had any sexual contact since starting this treatment. I did experience some itching when the suppository leaked out But if I can deal with months of itching from BV, an itch now and then from the suppository is no problem. BV disrupted vacations, family time, my job, and my workouts. I feel like I have my life back.

It really works well for vag balance...but I gave it a lower review because it is true it's incredibly sharp and painful. I even started cutting it in half with scissors and it still hurts. Not every single time you insert it but occasionally there's a sharp pain because these have a very sharp point? Get it together. You think after all this time the company would change it. Literally not necessary or for any function they could easily mold it to a rounded point.

Great suppositories! I have used them myself, then ordered some for my mom, who has been struggling with some dryness that comes with age, and now my sister got them as well. I recommend this product to all my lady friends. Something to keep in mind, when you use it, it will leak out at night time, so make sure to wear an extra long pad(size 5 works best)

Since I have hormonal imbalance, sometimes my vulva feels itchy and dry. These vaginal suppositories help to normalise the flora, but you might have to use it for 3 to 4 days. Insert it like a tampon but higher and preferably wear a liner because the suppository melts and leaks out. Having said that, do speak to your doctor before using it.

I was looking for something gentle, effective, and not messy, and these probiotic vaginal suppositories turned out to be exactly what I needed. They’re easy to insert, dissolve smoothly, and don’t cause any irritation. I noticed a difference in overall freshness and balance within a couple of days, especially with pH and odor. They also feel much more natural compared to some harsher treatments. I really like that they use probiotics instead of strong chemicals, and the formula feels clean and safe. Perfect for maintaining balance after antibiotics, during hormonal changes, or just for regular support. Definitely a great option if you want something simple, effective, and comfortable.

Work way easier and quicker than the mouth probiotics!

Los pedí por segunda vez, son buenísimos, me han ayudado con la inflamación, tengo miomas y todavía no me operan por unas vacterias, pero estos me han ayudado al desinflamar me ha bajado el dolor y hasta el sangrado qué llevo casi un año se me a quitado, por eso los pedí de nuevo por que siento mucho alivio usarlos, y los seguiré pidiendo.

Awesome product helps with persistant BV
