Vaginal probiotic- pessary

Hi. I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for a vaginal probiotic that is in pessary form rather than oral. My consultant has asked me to take a pessary version as it is more targeted and direct and none of the bacteria is killed along the way in the gut. I can find loads of oral ones online and in drugstores but not a pessary version. Many thanks.

Thanks RunnerGirl2021 I did look at this but it doesn’t have a lactobacillus strain like the Canesflor does. Though with the dearth of easily available other options I may just get this and supplement with an oral vaginal probiotic with the healthy bacteria strains, like Optibac.

Yes I did both and took an oral probiotic too. It’s unfortunate they don’t make Canesflor no more.

Hi lovely, Seed just came out with this one: seed.com/vaginal-synbiotic

I haven’t tried it myself yet as it’s just launched recently, but I’ve taken their normal probiotic for years. All of their products are clinically validated xx

Thanks! Eloquentia how long did you use them for? I also found them on this site which seems cheaper than eBay carefromnature.co.uk/florag...

I did two courses back-to-back, so 10 days. My transfer after using them worked. Very best of luck!
