lactobacillus probiotic pessaries

Hi girls,

Going for 2nd fet in Prague next month, following a chemical in early December The clinic have asked me to start taking lactobacillus pessaries about a week before my next period. . The pessaries version appear to be impossible to find here in Ireland, I have also tried several chemist's in Northern Ireland and online but their either out of stock, don't ship to Ireland or American sites that won't deliver until weeks after I need to start them! . The clinic have been crap n won't even recommend a brand so I cant narrow down the search.. I don't know what am really looking for and there no help!

Are any of you taking these and can you suggest a good brand that mayb available online for delivery

Hi, I just had a quick look and found these by Canesten, sold in Boots.ie but likely other pharmacies too? boots.ie/canesflor-probioti...

These must just be back in stock cos boots was one of the first I checked... & Boots UK wouldn't deliver..... I asked the clinic about this brand cos it specifically helped treat vaginal infections and for everything else that's wrong with me I don't have infections but they just ignored the question! Do you think it's a one for all kinda probiotic and will do what the clinic hopes as well.... They seem to want me on this stuff daily for weeks

Try Amazon they'll have some. Good luck for your FET. Sorry about your chemical. Hope you get sorted 😘💗

Thank you.. Yeah I found loads of tablet forms on amazon but no pessaries versions (loads on the American amazon site)... With brexit there are more UK companies than ever not delivering to Ireland. I sometimes feel even the smallest of things is against me - like it shouldn't be this hard to get what is essentially just vitamins!

How annoying bless you. Couldn't you just take it orally? Surely it does the same thing. X

I would have taught so as well.. And I even found a liquid form with I taught would be better as may not have been processed so much but they insist on pessaries 🙄

Hi Annie, You can use the tablets as pessaries according to my fertility nutritionist. So if you can't find any specific pessaries - just use the tablets that you can find, vaginally.

That looks like a really good product.... The websites I have found it on.. Either block me from buying it as am not a practioneer or are charging me almost €30 for delivery!! Doesn't seen to be available at stockist in Northern Ireland either where I could simply collect it.... There's a possibility I mite go insane if I google much more on this haha

Oh no!! There’s also one called Garden of Life probiotics. Might be easier. It’s a pink and white tub xx

Eventually got one that was only charging €17 delivery.. I need to start them 3wks before transfer so need them by this coming Monday.. Lol still lot less expensive than some of the injections and scans etc... I think am so use to being broke at this stage I won't know what to do with myself if I ever have money again!
