Clinically proven, best used at bedtime. Seven applicators = one full course.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow pH treatment works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBV isn't thrush — it's the vagina's pH drifting alkaline, letting odour-causing bacteria outgrow the protective lactobacilli. Lactic acid restores the acidic environment; glycogen feeds the good bacteria back to dominance. That's why pH gels both treat BV and cut recurrence — and why antibiotics aren't the only answer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne applicator inserted at bedtime for seven nights — lying down keeps the gel where it works. Use through the full course even if the odour goes early (it usually does).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFishy odour with thin grey discharge = BV; itching with thick white discharge = thrush — treat the right one (Canestest can tell you). First episodes, pregnancy or frequent recurrence deserve a GP conversation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Balance Activ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57730122219907,"sku":"3362209","price":6.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1006\/9282\/0355\/files\/612BUBNJWiL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1786541172","url":"https:\/\/www.stockmymedicine.co.uk\/products\/balance-activ-bv-gel","provider":"StockMyMedicine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
