The Balance Activ BV Treatment Gel is designed for individuals experiencing the common symptoms of Bacterial Vaginosis (BV), such as vaginal odor, abnormal discharge, and discomfort. Its primary benefit is effectively relieving these symptoms by restoring and preserving the natural pH balance within the vagina. While highly effective for symptom management and prevention of recurrence, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for persistent or recurrent issues to rule out other underlying causes.
Dual-Action Formula: Works by both restoring and preserving the vagina's natural pH balance.
Effective Symptom Relief: Directly targets and alleviates vaginal odor, abnormal discharge, and discomfort associated with BV.

Prevents Recurrence: Can be used to maintain healthy pH levels and reduce the likelihood of BV symptoms returning.
Convenient Single-Use Tubes: Packaged in seven individual tubes for hygienic and easy application.
Targets pH Imbalance: Addresses a key factor contributing to BV symptoms.
Fast-Acting Relief: Designed to provide effective relief from discomfort, odor, and discharge.

Requires Consistent Use: For prevention, consistent application as directed is necessary, which might be a commitment for some users.
Info needed: Not a diagnostic tool: Does not confirm a BV diagnosis; self-diagnosis should be approached with caution.

Balance Activ BV Treatment Gel works by providing lactic acid to gently adjust the vaginal pH back to its natural acidic level. This acidic environment inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria that thrive in an elevated pH, while encouraging the growth of beneficial lactobacilli, which are crucial for vaginal health.
Typical Usage Scenarios:
Active BV Symptoms: For individuals experiencing new or recurring vaginal odor, unusual discharge, or discomfort, the gel helps to quickly alleviate these symptoms.
After Menstruation: Some individuals find BV symptoms flare up after their period due to pH changes; using the gel post-menstruation can help restore balance.
Post-Intimacy: Changes in vaginal pH can sometimes occur after sexual activity; the gel can be used to re-establish a healthy environment.
Proactive Maintenance: For those prone to recurrent BV, regular use (e.g., a few applications per week or after specific triggers) can help maintain a healthy vaginal flora and prevent symptoms from returning.
