Canesflor replacement needed

I am due to start my next round of ivf in the new year and as part of my protocol (following emma, alice and era test) I am to take metronidazole while on my period followed by canesflor vaginal probiotics.

The problem is this is now no longer being sold and a lot of the other recommendations have also been discontinued.

I am waiting to hear back fromo my clinic but in the meantime i was wondering what you ladies have been using instead if you had to use vaginal probiotics.

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

All of their products are clinically validated and super high quality. I think it might only be available in the US right now so I'll dm you some other info xx

Floragyn. It's Italian, got it on ebay. Very best of luck with your transfer! The one when I used vaginal probiotics was my lucky one.

look at the Femme V capsules you pop up there, (ideally at nighttime) by Invivo - I would also take oral probiotics as vaginal health is a reflection often of gut health.

Hi are these the ones you are on aboutinvivohealthcare.com/produc...

I have read on another forum previously where someone was recommended to use them vaginally but it says to take it orally so just double checking

Hi hun, after my Emma test my clinic recommended Optibac for women. I’m also taking Psyllium Husk (from Zita West) which is a prebiotic which should help the good bacteria grow.

Thank you! Im already taking optibac but in my head i feel like i need one to insert vaginally too. My clinic are unhelpful and said any probiotic will work but i feel like if that was the case then igenomix wouldnt have a specific list to use.

As recommended by my consultant when I specifically asked about vaginal probiotics, I’m now using BioCare Intrafresh Plus

Hi - if you're struggling with the other options there's another route as you can make your own reasonably simply: justfortummies.co.uk/probio... made from cocoa butter, coconut oil and a probiotic :) xx
