Great reset following a course of antibiotics. Does sting initially but it does warn you on the packaging.

Does what it's supposed to be doing, moisturizer and gives relief, easy to use, no smell, good to use in premenopause

Brilliant product

Found these pessaries easy and convient to use. As someone who's had to use daily pessaries throughout pregnancies opening the small packets and inserting was simple and straight forward. Cleared my symptoms by day 2 but decided to continue to use to finish the course as usually recommended. However by day 4 I had the telltale signs of a yeast infection in its place. Came back to the reviews on product and saw this has happened to a few women so be wary of this!

I had BV for a year and half I didn’t go to doctor and left it First I had a small amount of yellow discharge then green yellow then grey Finally started to having a brown colour I tried this but it was very painful so I had to take it out and I had antibiotics from online doctor. And after a week of antibiotics I finally got rid of it. The antibiotics name is Metronidazole But 3 months later it came back It said BV likely coming back So I bought this pessaries. I tried as soon as I got it I used only 2 days and cleared it out! I had burning sensation down there when I put it inside But I think it was because I had information inside. I think it will work if use it early stage.

I've suffered with what I think has been BV since as long as I can remember, I've never been to the Dr's about it I've always just got on with it. After research I tried these. Easy to use. After the 1st one, the next day I had no smell, and no discharge. I was honestly amazed! I haven't had dry knickers for absolute years (maybe 10-13 years)I normally go through knickers a few times a day or I wear a liner ALL the time, as for smell I've always thought I've had a smell alon side the discharge. On the 2nd day, again same as the 1st. Amazing! But on the 3rd and 4th day I'm 99% sure I now have a pretty nasty case of thrush (I've had thrush before so I remember the symptoms well), I'm really itchy, swollen, and the discharge is back along with a smell. I decided to stop taking them after the 4th day, I'm gonna wait till it clears up, and in a few weeks I'll just take 2 days worth again, as the 2 days worked amazingly. So for me, I wouldn't take 7 days worth, I will buy another pack and just take the odd 1 or 2, rather than a full course, whenever I'm a bit off again. So yeah, amazing stuff they do work. Maybe I just got thrush coincidentally whilst taking this course, it is possible. But I'm not chancing it again in future, just 1 or 2 will do me fine. P.S the pill is shaped like a bullet and it looks like its a soap kind of texture. The packaging the pill was in was difficult to remove without the pill flying out of it lol, so be careful on opening! Good luck those trying, I hope you get results and feel amazing!

Just finished using these. I have been suffering from what I believe is BV for a couple of weeks. I had itchiness, coupled with a bad smell and light discharge. I am not keen on the plastic tubes of liquid that you squirt inside. I noticed these pessaries and they looked just the job. On arrival, I found the box easy to open, but packet of pessaries themselves were quite difficult to get into. The foil packaging is quite annoying to peel apart to release the pessary. I found the pessaries themselves very easy and mess free to insert at night. Sounds weird but they are quite small, smooth, and are the texture of a bar of soap. They seemed a lot less messy than the tubes you can buy, however I did feel a warming sensation as they dissolved through the night. Nothing uncomfortable for me. I do wish they came with applicators (like canestan) but I’m aware this would probably be seen as a waste of plastic. I just washed my hands and used my fingertips to insert it as high as it would go. 7 days on…while it stopped the smell and discharge a bit, and I didn’t suffer any irritation when using like some others, I am still suffering from a bit of a smell and itchiness. So I am going to go to the doctor and wouldn’t rate these as that effective. Two stars off for lack of effectiveness and difficult to open packaging.

Sceptical but amazing. I was using normal soap and it knocked the PH levels off . Used two of these and it worked amazingly well.

I haven't noticed any improvement.
