GYNTIMA Probiotic Forte Vaginal Suppositories, also known as Probiotica Forte contains probiotics. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that help maintain a healthy balance of microorganisms in the body, including the vaginal area. Designed and made in Switzerland they support vaginal health by replenishing and promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria in the vaginal flora. By doing so, they aim to create an environment that is less favourable for the growth of harmful bacteria or yeast, thus reducing the risk of vaginal infections such as bacterial vaginosis or yeast infections. Clinical data also shows a link between vaginal probiotics and the reduction of recurrent cystitis (RC). A grade II medical device they help balance pH levels and promote healthy bacteria in the vagina. Hormonal contraceptives (the pill), sexual intercourse, antibiotics, smoking, swimming pools, hot tubs and some scented vaginal products alter the pH level of the vagina encouraging harmful bacteria to begin to grow. Vaginosis and vulvovaginal candidiasis are common types of vaginal infections caused by an imbalance in your vaginal pH levels which can result in bacterial or mycotic infections also known as fungal or yeast infection such as thrush or candidiasis.
