About Canesbalance Vaginal Pessaries

Canesbalance Vaginal Pessaries contain lactic acid and glycogen, acting as both a prebiotic and postbiotic to relieve the symptoms of bacterial vaginosis (BV). It is designed to treat BV symptoms such as unusual greyish-white discharge, a noticeable fishy smell, and intimate discomfort. Canesbalance Vaginal Pessaries regulate the pH level in the vagina, restrict the growth of bad bacteria, and actively support the growth of good bacteria.

Canesbalance Vaginal Pessaries are suitable for women and are available in one pack size:

• Canesbalance Vaginal Pessaries – 7 pessaries

What Are Canesbalance Vaginal Pessaries Used For?

Canesbalance Vaginal Pessaries are used to relieve symptoms of bacterial vaginosis, including thin greyish-white discharge, a noticeable fishy odour, and vaginal discomfort or irritation. It works by restoring the natural pH balance of the vagina, which restricts the growth of bad bacteria while promoting the growth of healthy protective bacteria (lactobacilli).

• Experience persistent symptoms, worsened symptoms, or vaginal bleeding
