Among them, the drug Ecofemin was widely used. You will find reviews about this rescue tool, rules for its use and tips for safe use in this article.
Causes and manifestation of vaginosis
This disease is associated with a violation of the vaginal microflora, due to a number of various reasons. It can be either commonplace stresses or even intestinal dysbiosis, as well as more serious problems - “unsuccessful” sexual contact, for example. Often, vaginosis is a consequence of violations of personal hygiene rules or occurs as a result of prolonged use of antibiotics.
The disease manifests itself in a rather unpleasant form - in the form of redness, itching and burning in the genitals, sometimes sharp pains are present. Such symptoms instantly affect mood and well-being, ruin plans and simply interfere with life. They need to be treated immediately, then the chances of a quick recovery are much greater. Along with hygiene, nutrition and environment, additional measures are needed. Many women, as such, start taking Ecofemin. Reviews about him are mostly positive. With timely treatment, the result will be noticeable after two to three days.
The drug "Ecofemin" in capsules
Vaginal capsules are a fairly effective tool for normalizing the vaginal microflora. They contain special components (in particular, lactobacilli) that inhibit pathogenic microflora and create normal. It looks like standard sized gelatin capsules with white-gray powder inside. Using them is easy enough, and the procedure itself does not cause any inconvenience. They are used once a day - best before bedtime. It is at night that the effect of the drug is enhanced: special bacteria help the body to fight unpleasant symptoms on its own, restoring the normal state of the mucous membrane of the intimate zone.
Means "Ecofemin" in the form of a gel
In addition to capsules, there is also the drug "Ecofemin-gel", which acts as an emergency rescue tool to eliminate dryness and unpleasant itching in the vagina. It is transparent, odorless and completely hypoallergenic. In addition, the gel is tested for compatibility with latex products and can even be used as an intimate lubricant. Therefore, if you suddenly had to use it before a date that involves continuation, do not worry. The gel does not bother you at all, but only helps. In addition, its texture is soft and delicate, and there are no fats or hormonal substances in the composition.
Means "Ecofemin": microflora balance
These are capsules intended for oral administration. The fact is that often the cause of bacterial vaginosis is a violation of the intestinal microflora. Capsules "Ecofemin-balance" contribute to its gentle recovery. They contain special probiotic bacteria that improve immunity, normalize metabolism and digestion, eliminate dysbiosis and thereby restore the normal microflora of the vagina.
However, it is about these capsules of the drug Ecofemin that the reviews are rather contradictory. They are ideal for someone, but someone has an allergy or other unpleasant symptoms. This may be due to the individual reaction of the body to some components of the drug. If any have appeared, you should immediately stop taking and consult a doctor. In addition, it is important that you familiarize yourself with the precautions before using them.
Contraindications for taking Ecofemin
Any drug should only be used after consulting a doctor. The drug "Ecofemin" is no exception. First, it’s important to make sure you are not allergic to its components. Secondly, it is forbidden to take the drug if a woman suffers from candidiasis. Thirdly, treatment is carried out in doses strictly recommended by the doctor.
In addition, the drug Ecofemin should not be used during menstruation. But pregnancy and lactation are not an obstacle to treatment. However, you should still consult with your doctor first.
Means "Ecofemin": analogues
In the event that this tool for some reason did not suit you, it does not make sense to continue using it. But the problem needs to be solved. What can replace the Ecofemin preparation in this case? Analogues of this tool can be divided into cheaper and more expensive. In the first category are drugs "Acylact", "Biolact", "Bifidumbacterin", "Lactobacterin" and others. The second category is more expensive, but also more effective - it means "Biosparin", "Bifilis", "Lactonorm", "Probifor". However, they are not suitable for everyone. Before prescribing treatment for any of these drugs, consult your doctor.
