    Unfortunately us ladies all suffer from this from time to time especially if you've used a dodgy soap or shower gel with too much perfume. Anyway these little gems return your natural flora back to what it should be - and overnight too. Great and easy to use.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Treating period triggered bv, seems to work, tubes are a bit difficult to use

    H. · 23 November 2019

    I'm one of those unfortunates who now gets bv every month, probably triggered by the period, and getting older (40 now). Mine occurs 10-14 days after the end of the period. I've also had an episode of bv continuously for a month, then none for 3. Docs (both female) couldn't be bothered to pinpoint the exact cause, so I thought I might aswell take things into my own hands. It's my body after all.The tubes aren't sealed individually, which made me a little apprehensive. As someone whose never used tampons (I just don't like the idea of putting something 'unnatural' inside), insertion was completely pain free and easy. But when you squeeze the tube there seems to be air pockets, so the old vjj was a bit, well, farty! Not painful, just a bit uncomfortable. When I release to adjust my hand to squeeze the rest out, the tube has a tendency to suck the gel back up again. What I do now is after the first squeeze, I take it out, adjust my hand and squeeze the tube so the gel is just coming out, then put it back in and empty as much of what's left. I like getting my moneys worth :pSomeone else mentioned a syringe type thingy instead of the tubes and, as a designer myself, I totally agree, it would make it a lot easier to get the full dose without the air pockets! This needs a better design. A few people have also had reactions to the gel itself, but thankfully I felt nothing, completely fine.Does it work? My bv doesn't have a strong odour, the main thing is the discharge. Note: I tried the gel as I got symptoms. After 2 days I still had discharge, after the 4th I didn't. I then stopped the treatment to see if the discharge would return, it didn't. I have 3 tubes left and I'm still discharge free a week later.That said, my bv is somewhat unpredictable, it can last the entire time between periods, or a week, or even through my period. It's different each month, so I'll try the treatment again at different stages of my cycle. Will update this review...BTW I also started taking probiotics recommended for BV, Lactobacillus Rueteri, and Rhamnosus (Bio-Cultures brand) a day before my period. Not sure if it's done anything, will see next cycle.

    5.0 out of 5 stars It Works

    s. · 15 November 2024

    There are times when I start to itch or feel like something is happening down there but I'm not sure why or what. This stuff always fixes it. For those saying it burns, what I have found is that the closer your PH is to what it should be down there, the less it burns. There are times when I feel a little off and I use one tube and it barely causes any sensation. Then the problem is resolved and I don;t need all 7 tubes.Other times it burns like fire after applying a tube, and I know my PH was way off. Then it gets better each day I use a tube until it normalises. Evidently a normal vagina is a little acidic but an alkaline vagina allows nonspecific bacteria to grow and that is what this product is for.The burning is due to the acidic gel coming in contact with the overly alkaline vaginal bacteria. If your Vag is PH balanced, those bacteria can't grow and the gel feels neutral because its acidic PH is matching your acidic vaginal PH.For those who get a yeast infection from this product, that is because your problem wasn't being overly alkaline. Instead you were already too acidic and yeast grows in overly acidic vaginas. There is a fine balance and sometimes someone will swing back and forth over that line for a while and have to treat with this product, then next time a yeast product.I find that applying lavender essential oil to my privates each day prevents me having to use either type of product for the most part. But sometimes I still need to use this gel.

    Easy to use and the effectiveness was quick in terms to resolving issues concerning my PH levels .If you follow the instructions then you don't have any stinging effects. I made sure I inserted this when I layed on my back and squeezed the tube further internally,this helped to prevent any stinging effects.The product does leak slightly the next day but nothing that will be noticeable.One use and any issues were resolved fast and effective.

    I'll buy again

    I was opposed to trying gels because of the water content, but I saw that it was specifically formulated to be a 3.8 pH level and after using it twice and testing my pH with a strip, I have found that to be correct. I have tried their “pessary“/suppository, and have noticed that it has the same effect of completely neutralizing all odor. The gel is a bit more “hydrating” and cleansing and while the suppository is definitely moisturizing and did lower my pH a bit, the suppository was more effective at that. The pH strip was lighter after one use compared to the color it is when I use the suppository. The first time I used it I thought the length of the applicator was a bit short and the tip is a bit pointy but the overall feel of the packaging is very smooth and sleek. The second time i used it, because I was so moisturized and lubricated from using it the previous night, I had absolutely no problem with insertion. This is good for virgins. With the first use, as it leaked out while I was in bed, I noticed the slightest burning sensation. It was more of a tingle, but it went away really quickly and after I stopped leaking and it was all out, nothing felt odd. I lightly cleaned myself and everything felt normal. The second time I use this, I made sure to not only insert it deeper, but I folded the base of the product in half while it was still inside so I can make sure I got everything in there while sliding my fingers from the base of it to my body like it was a sauce packet. I also made sure to use it right before I fell asleep to get the most from this product by making sure the solution is in contact and inside my body for as long as possible. When I woke up and checked my pH level, it was slightly lighter than the first time I used it. Also, because I kept it in for so long without any premature leakage it actually acted like a cleanser even more than before since I really feel like it was able to sink a bit further in and while i was on the toilet it slowly grabbed everything along my walls and carried it out. it’s literally a pH lowering cleanser. I’m going to stock up on this. I’ll use it right after my period (since it is more viscous than the solid suppositories I use) as a more effective way to cleanse the vagina faster than discharge does when my cycle ends (the pH of blood is too high). Then I’ll use vitamin C and probiotic suppositories 1-3 times a week. I have only had BV once, months ago, and I don’t want to get it again. Since then I’ve been checking my pH regularly and this has definitely helped at lowering it, keeping it low, and completely neutralizing odors. It’s like boric acid but healthier for you and your pH. You can smell the gel after it leaves you body and it will smell like water. You will literally have no smell right after using this. I hope this product becomes more popular in America.I first bought it from the seller “The Station Approach UK” and the packaging was intact and clean. I bought 3 more from a different seller and the packaging as shown in later photos is either crushed or dirty. None were completely open though. The product from The Station Approach UK was newer as it had an expiration date that was a month later than what I received from the other seller.

    PLEASE READ! 22yrs old BYE Bacterial Vaginosis

    S. · 31 December 2018

    After suffering every month, at 22 years old, after my period with 2 weeks of fish smell each month that I could smell through my clothes (I had no other Bv symptoms such as itch, just a HORRIBLE smell) for a year now, I have finally found something that takes it away after just 2 days. BV sufferers, we know we are clean. I have spend DAYS researching why I have fish smell feeling depressed and having to explain to my boyfriend of 7 years that I could not figure out why I am all of the sudden suffering from this. I stopped wanting to have sex because both of us noticed and also because the metrogel and antibiotics I was being prescribed MONTHLY for diagnosed Bacterial Vaginosis made me feel sick and only was temporary relief as it always would come back. Things that have changed my life: using this gel towards the end of my period and now will be using one or two a week if I have sex to balance out my vagina; only washing with warm water and PH balanced vagina wash(I recommend good clean love ph wash); NEVER douching; taking a specific daily probiotic for what your body is lacking; eating a cleaner diet with less sugar/processed foods and more water. I have already tried just about every other home therapy option with no success. The medicine I was, and thousands of other women, regularly doctor prescribed kills the bad bacteria AND the good. This Balace Activ gel lowers your ph and allows your vaginia to have an environment where the good bacteria can begin to thrive again and outnumber the bad. I don’t know why my body has changed to where I need this extra help, my guess would be fluctuations in hormones before and after my period after I got off hormonal birth control last year after using it since 15 years old. I wish more research was done about BV, but until then from what I have found for the little studies there are, antibiotics and metrogel are temporary fixes and most women have it reoccur....and a real solution is daily probiotics with strands matching those in the Vag biome (ex. Lactobactillios rhamnosus, look at azo brand’s feminine probiotic ingredients) , lower vaginal PH with lactic acid gels, and focusing on what your body needs to maintain healthy vaginal Ph so that good Bacteria remains dominant, all for long term care. I PRAY this makes it to the US. So many of us need it here and need to know about this. Spread the word! I ordered so many boxes to always have it on hand, I didn’t even care about the cost (which is not bad and is so much cheaper than the doctor every month). If you are not diagnosed BY A DOCTOR for BV, please do so first to ensure that it is not something else first that could need prescribed medication. If you have BV, i hope this works for you like it does for me! Peace, love, & goodbye vaginal imbalance and odor!

    GRAPHIC REVIEW-Please, please do your research first. On second thought, to be honest, even if I were to have read the reviews, I was so desperate on trying an "alternative" that I would have still taken the chance, as I have been eyeing this gel for quite some time now. I am a woman who suffers from this every other cycle, so I got so tired of taking Metronidazole, that I decided to try the BV Activ Gel. It was very simple to use, but BOY OH BOY let me tell you. After almost two days, I started breaking out down there; swollen, red, it just did not look normal. All of this over the gel? I even scratched so much that my labia on both sides hardened and could hardly walk NORMAL.. :) I would even try sitz baths with Organic Apple Cider.. i had to stay home and literally place ice cubes down there; I cried because I just wanted to take a brush and scrub down there; so much itching, irritation, etc... I have never in my life of 41 years have such a bad reaction. It INDUCED a yeast infection; I have had them in the past before dont get me wrong, but it has been over 5-7 years and it usually goes away on its own anyways.. Not this one.. I have just gotten back from the ER and was given fluconazole; i take it every day for 3 days...She even gave me a refill which I probably will not use because I will never ever ever ever use this stuff again and as I said earlier, It is very seldom that I get yeast infections anyways. I read in one of the reviews this very same thing happened to another woman... I could hardly walk yesterday; I purchase AZO yeast pills and no relief for me, then 4 hours later I got the Monistat 1 Day kit with the cooling wipes and also the itching cream...It calmed down for a little while, but the next day I just wanted to buy a whole new vajay-jay! :( I was later told by the doctor in the ER that I should have used the 5 or 7 day Monistat as it is more effective than the 1 day complete kit? I spent over $40 for yeast infection meds and I am finally feeling better as this is day 1 of the fluconazole thanks to the prescription from the ER... This is not to put down the product, but this is my experience, and never again.. NOWAY!

    You don’t have to suffer! BV is treatable!

    I don’t normally write reviews, but feel I must if it can possibly help someone that’s suffering like I was. I had chronic recurring bv for a year before I finally found something that worked for me. For the first few months, I used colloidal silver flushes (douche) for a few days, which would make the symptoms go away, but they would come back after my next period. This went on for months before the douches just quit working. I went to the GYN and tried two different prescriptions, suppository metronidazole and oral clindamycin, and within days of completing the meds my symptoms returned. Steroid cream helped to keep me comfortable (took away the itch), but it obviously wasn’t solving the problem. I took to scouring the internet, with the hypothesis that my ph was off so I needed a prebiotic. Through much research and reading many reviews, I stubbled upon this product. I tried one 7 day round, and while it worked, soon after my infection was back. Again I read more reviews and one gal mentioned using this product for 7 days, then using vitamin c (C-1000 caps by twinlab) as a suppository, one cap each night for 7 days. The initial treatment with Balance Activ cleared up the infection, I started my period directly at the end of the 7 days, mad then did the vitamin c treatment for 7 days after my cycle ended. What I discovered was that while the vitamin c worked, 7 days of using it too irritating to my v. So now I use one vitamin c cap as a suppository as needed. One after intercourse, maybe the following evening, and one at the end of my cycle. And so far that’s worked. If I start to feel any sort of irritation down there that could indicate a bv coming on, I use the vitamin c again, just one or two doses, and it clears it up almost instantly. I keep a 7 day supply of Balance Activ on hand, in case I get another bad infection, but so far the second treatment and subsequent vitamin c has worked. I believe it works by adding healthy acid to the v to balance everything out. I’m finally free of the misery of bv and if you’re suffering I hope that you can find some relief too, either with the therapy I described or something else that works for you. Bv is miserable, keep trying to find something that works for you, you don’t have to suffer!
