Canesbalance Bacterial Vaginosis Vaginal Gel is a clinically proven, over-the-counter treatment for bacterial vaginosis (BV). It works rapidly by restoring the natural pH balance in the vagina to relieve uncomfortable and distressing symptoms, such as an unpleasant fishy odour and an abnormal, greyish-white watery discharge.

Bacterial Vaginosis is a very common vaginal condition caused by an overgrowth of harmful bacteria, which upsets the natural, healthy environment of the vagina[1]. By using this targeted gel, you can effectively eliminate these frustrating symptoms and feel fresh, clean, and confident again.

Canesbalance BV Gel has a highly effective, clinically proven three-step action to help treat Bacterial Vaginosis and restore your intimate health. It targets the infection directly using two key active ingredients:

Active Ingredient / ActionHow It WorksBenefit for BV Symptoms
Lactic Acid (pH Restorer)Quickly lowers the vaginal pH, creating a healthy, acidic environment.Instantly neutralises the unpleasant fishy odour and stops harmful bacteria from spreading.
Glycogen (Nutrient Support)Provides essential food and nutrients to lactobacilli (your natural, healthy bacteria).Helps the good bacteria multiply, restoring a healthy balance to naturally clear the infection and discharge.

Although BV is a very common condition, it can cause significant discomfort, affect your confidence, and disrupt your general vaginal health. If left entirely untreated, bacterial vaginosis can also leave you more vulnerable to other intimate health complications. Canesbalance BV Gel provides a fast, simple, and effective solution, helping you feel fresh and back to normal quickly.

To get the best results, always read the enclosed leaflet before using Canesbalance Bacterial Vaginosis Vaginal Gel. This simple 7-day routine helps restore vaginal balance and relieve BV symptoms effectively.

StepApplication Instructions
1. PreparationTwist off the end tab of the pre-filled applicator. Do not remove the tab until you are ready to use it.
2. InsertionSit or lie down comfortably. Gently insert the neck of the applicator into the vagina as far as is comfortably possible.
3. ApplicationGently squeeze the bulb to release the gel. Keep the bulb squeezed while you carefully remove the tube, then dispose of it.
4. FrequencyUse one tube per day for 7 days. Apply the gel right before bedtime so it stays in place while you sleep. Use a new applicator each time.

Most people can use Canesbalance BV Gel safely without any problems. You may experience slight stinging during use if you have small tears in the vaginal tissue caused by the infection, but this is temporary. It is important to follow the instructions carefully and do not use more than recommended on the label.

Patient Profile / ConditionSafety Precaution & Advice
Symptoms persist after 7 daysIf your symptoms last longer than 7 days, speak to a doctor. You may require a prescription antibiotic treatment.
PregnancyWhile the gel is safe, BV can cause pregnancy complications. Always consult a healthcare professional if you develop an infection while pregnant.
Trying to conceiveCanesbalance lowers your vaginal pH, making the environment less suitable for sperm. Avoid using this gel if you are actively trying to get pregnant.

Stop using the gel immediately and contact your doctor if you experience any severe side effects, notice signs of an allergic reaction, or if your discharge becomes blood-stained.

What is the difference between Canesbalance Bacterial Vaginosis Vaginal Gel and a thrush treatment?

While both conditions cause intimate discomfort, they are entirely different infections. Canesbalance BV Gel treats Bacterial Vaginosis by restoring your natural pH to clear watery, greyish discharge and a fishy odour. In contrast, thrush treatments use antifungal medicine to kill yeast infections, which typically cause a thick, white discharge and severe itching.

Can I have sex while using Canesbalance BV Gel?

It is highly recommended that you avoid vaginal intercourse while you have an active BV infection and while completing this 7-day treatment. Semen is naturally alkaline and can disrupt your vaginal pH, counteracting the gel. Additionally, this gel lowers your vaginal pH, making the environment less suitable for sperm, so it should not be used if you are actively trying to conceive.

Can I use Canesbalance BV Gel during my period?

Yes, it is completely safe to use Canesbalance Bacterial Vaginosis Vaginal Gel during your period. However, because the gel needs to stay in the vagina to work effectively, you should use sanitary pads instead of tampons while completing the treatment to prevent the gel from being absorbed and removed prematurely.

Is it normal to experience leakage after applying the gel?

Yes, it is completely normal to experience some mild leakage or a slight discharge the morning after using the gel. Because the treatment is applied internally before bedtime, gravity will naturally cause some of the product to work its way out when you stand up. Wearing a breathable panty liner during the day can help protect your underwear.
