Finally, a science-driven probiotic pessary that gets to the v-spot
Scientifically designed to support a healthy vaginal microbiome
Designed for Vaginal Health
-
Orally consumed probiotics have to go through the gastric system, where the good bacteria can die from the harsh, acidic environment.
-
We have developed Australia's only vaginally-inserted pessary, allowing for targeted and direct delivery of good bacteria (1).

Our Ingredients
Scientifically designed for targeted vaginal action
Collapsible content
Lactobacillus crispatus
- Lactobacillus crispatus 2 billion CFU – the most dominant species of a healthy vaginal microbiome.
- L. crispatus is present in vaginas of 65% of women universally.
- It has a high level of lactic acid production. Healthy vagina has a pH value of 3.8-4.5.
- It has good vaginal wall adhesion and creates stable colonies.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus
- Lactobacillus rhamnosus, GR-1™ 1.25 billion CFU together with its partner L. reuteri, RC-14™ have been studied in over 30 clinical trials over the last 20 years. GR-1 and RC-14 are trademarks of Chr. Hansen A/S.
Lactobacillus reuteri
- Lactobacillus reuteri, RC-14™ 1.25 billion CFU together with its partner L. rhamnosus, GR-1™ are the most researched strains to support vaginal health. GR-1 and RC-14 are trademarks of Chr. Hansen A/S.
Lactobacillus gasseri
- Lactobacillus gasseri 2 billion CFU – important supporting bacteria of a healthy vaginal microbiome, present in vaginas in more than 40% of women universally, creates a stable vaginal community.
Supporting ingredients
- Packed with healthy supporting ingredients that will preserve viability of probiotic bugs, support their targeted action, and are gentle on vaginal wall tissue.
- Skim milk (which contains lactose) is an excellent food source for probiotics and provide much needed support for the growth of probiotic live organisms when they need it the most. Skim milk was shown to have a highly protective effect on probiotic species in preserving them over shelf-life at room temperature.
The protection
- Plant based hardshell capsule
- Superior aluminium blister pack – offers maximum light and moisture protection, keeping probiotic bugs alive during the whole shelf-life period, and is fully recyclable

(1) Probiotics delivered in a pessary form (a capsule inserted locally into the vagina) may work more quickly than those taken orally as oral probiotics need to pass through the gastrointestinal tract first before reaching the urogenital tract (Borges et al., The role of lactobacilli and probiotics in maintaining vaginal health.
