Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) and Gardnerella Vaginalis is an incredibly common condition that is caused by an imbalance of bacteria in the vagina, which affects natural pH levels. The vagina has quite a low pH level which means it’s somewhat acidic, and this helps to keep infection at bay. If the pH levels change it can lead to dryness, discomfort, odour and unusual discharge or in other words, Bacterial Vaginosis or BV. Balance Activ BV Gel contains lactic acid to increase the acidity and lower the pH levels of the vagina to normal levels. It comes in one-use disposable applicators that allow you to easily apply the correct dosage of the gel inside your body without mess.
It is recommended you use Balance Activ BV Gel once daily for a week to eliminate BV, but if you are prone to the condition you can use it more regularly to keep the condition at bay.
Balance Activ Gel is a product designed to help with bacterial vaginosis (BV), which is a common vaginal infection caused by an imbalance of bacteria in the vagina. BV is characterized by symptoms like unusual vaginal discharge, a fishy odour, and itching or irritation. Balance Activ Gel works by restoring the natural pH balance of the vagina. The vagina has an acidic pH level, which helps to maintain a healthy balance of bacteria, particularly lactobacilli. These "good" bacteria help keep harmful bacteria in check and prevent infections.
Here's how Balance Activ Gel works:
Restoring pH balance: The gel contains lactic acid, which is naturally produced by lactobacilli. Lactic acid helps to lower the pH level of the vagina, making it more acidic. By doing so, it creates an unfavorable environment for harmful bacteria to thrive, while promoting the growth of beneficial lactobacilli.
Neutralizing odour: The acidic environment created by the lactic acid helps to neutralize the foul odor associated with BV. This can provide relief from the unpleasant fishy smell that often accompanies the infection.
Alleviating symptoms: By restoring the natural balance of the vaginal environment, Balance Activ Gel can help alleviate symptoms like abnormal discharge, itching, and irritation. The gel's soothing properties can help to relieve discomfort.
Usage of Balance Activ Gel typically involves inserting the gel into the vagina using a pre-filled applicator. It is usually recommended to use the gel once daily for 7 days or as directed by a healthcare professional. It's essential to follow the product's instructions carefully and complete the full course of treatment, even if symptoms improve, to ensure that the infection is fully resolved.
