5.0 out of 5 stars Tried & Tested: Best Probiotic For Women
I have used Optibac Women, as well as Everyday and Everyday Max. They are not the cheapest but they seem to be effective, don't give tummy troubles and don't have to be stored in the fridge. Customer care from the company is great too. I've tried others but always come back to these.
5.0 out of 5 stars Bye Bye BV
Pre-warning that this will be a long review, as I want to explain how it helped me for others that might have had similar issues.First, about the probiotics themselves. I personally think the size is great as they’re quite petite (as per the picture) and the capsules go down easily with some water due to a plastic-like coating. When you open the tube there is a slight smell, but it isn’t an unpleasant. The fact that they are vegetarian/vegan is also a huge plus, as I try not to consume too much animal product.I began taking these to hopefully stop my reoccuring BV, as I’d had multiple courses of antibiotics and also used gels such as Canesbalance - the latter just seemed to stop symptoms for a few days before coming on again.I first got BV in October 2017 and got prescribed a short course of antibiotics. I was then all clear until December 2017 when it came back after a period. I had another course of antibiotics, which killed the infection, but then my BV came back every month following/during each period and I had to avoid baths and perfumed products after treatment as that also bought it on. After a while, the nurse suggested trying things like Canesbalance instead of antibiotics, which I tried with no improvement. However, I was not treated with antibiotics this time so I purely did the 7 day gel treatment (which should treat the problem) and then once a week afterwards. However, it would only last a few days so it would make me paranoid and cause me to take them frequently so the cost of was racking up. Maybe had I also had antibiotics, these would have prevented reoccurrence - but I generally found the gels a bit messy and I didn’t feel comfortable to use them when staying at my partner’s house.I read a few articles online where people had said probiotics in conjunction with other tablets helped, so I thought I would try probiotics alone to begin with. I opted for Optibac as the price on here seemed reasonable compared to some other brands and it also had some good reviews. I purchased the 30 capsule option to begin with (thank god it was available then, as it isn’t now and I think I would have gone for another type rather than 14 or 90). I started off with one a day, and two weeks after taking them my period started with the usual signs of the infection (tmi - very watery with an unusual smell) so I doubled up on the capsules which it says you can do. On the second day of my period things started to look more regular (thicker). After my time of the month had finished, I asked the nurse for antibiotics to hopefully get rid of the infection. I then continued to take two a day until my next period, which appeared normal. The infection was normally evident no later than 2 days following my period when it reoccurred. This time around I was still fine. I kept taking two a day until a week after the end of the first period that followed the antibiotics course, just to be sure, and then cut down to one a day. The day before my next period I started taking two again, until the end of my period (just to be cautious) before going back to one and it has still been clear. So far I am 3 months clear of it, and I have doubled up again for my current period. However, if I remain clear this time I may try just taking one pill every day (including on my period) as then that means I won’t go through them as quickly. Now that I know they work for me I have gone for the 90 capsule option as I am happy to make that investment. The only downside now is that i’m worried it will come back if I ever stop taking them! But I think I will at least continue with these for another few months before trying to go without and will possibly still take them during my period as that is what seems to bring it on.So overall, this has helped keep the BV away meaning I no longer feel self conscious when doing things like my martial arts or being intimate with my partner. To me that makes it 100% worth the money.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good product
I took my time to find this product and went with it based on the great reviews.I can say that it definitely did work after just a few days. I was smelling fresh again down there and very happy with the results, however for me it didn't last, the thrush symptoms would still come and go. I took Optibac for 1 month, kept mine refrigerated and had 2 capsules each morning. I just think it wasn't the right product for me, I have since switched to another with a higher count of live cultures, hoping it will work consistently this time.
5.0 out of 5 stars Trusted make and effective
I was recommended to it by a gynaecologist BEFORE they were even fully available in the UK. I now have them on Bolo subscription. I know they're a bonafide brand and I find they are very effective. Their customer service is super helpful too and always email back if you have questions about any of their products.

These pills keep everything balanced. Definitely recommend.
3.0 out of 5 stars Mixed response
I have found that my symptoms have improved however I have mild lower abdomen cramp this whole week of taking them. It may be unrelated (as a lot of the negative symptoms experienced by people may be). These are histamine safe probiotic strains so it should not increase histamine and having histamine intolerance myself this does not appear to have increased histamine for me (and I notice an increase quite quickly). So difficult to tell if the slight cramp is related. I will stop taking them and start again to see if it is!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product
I've used this before and so thought I'd order through Bolo.Brilliant service, arrived the next day
Love how tiny the capsules are
These are super tiny and easy to get down. I didn't notice a difference in my vaginal health after taking the whole bottle, but no negative side effects either. I think these are good for maintenance. However, if you're struggling with imbalances, these may not be potent enough to give you results.
Could rave about these forever!
These are the very best probiotics I have ever ever used for female vaginal health! I am so grateful, thankful, and happy I found this company. Recently, I was having issues getting them on Bolo because of stocking issues and the company is based out of the UK. However, I am able to get them again and nothing compares trust me! These are THE VERY BEST and you will see a difference after a few weeks of consistent daily use. Thank you!
Funciona
Buena combinación de prebioticos. Soy hombre y me ha ido muy bien, buscaba esa combinación.
Blasenentzündung wird endlich besser
Über 1 1/2 Jahre leide ich unter einer chronischen Blasenentzündung. Ich hatte mehrere Spiegelungen und sämtliche Medikamente probiert. Seit ich diese Bakterien nehme, ist es merklich besser geworden. Da ich vieles probiert habe, kann nicht sagen, dass es alleine an den Bakterienkulturen lag. Ich würde sie auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen und werde sie auch weiterhin nehmen.
Not for everyone
Very effective against BV but came with a load of side effects for me (pimples, stomach ache). Probiotics do not agree with me in general.
