Why buy a probiotic tampon from an online pharmacy?

Inserting a tampon for the first time can be a frightening and intimidating experience. But it's easier than you might think: you just need to know how. By wearing a tampon, you'll be able to swim, run and do anything else without the discomfort of a sanitary towel. If you put it on correctly, your tampon won't hurt, and you probably won't even feel it.

Vaginal infections are often linked to a destabilized vaginal flora. Probiotics are living micro-organisms naturally present in our bodies. They preserve the physiological bacterial ecosystem and thus strengthen our defenses. Probiotic sanitary tampons are effective in preventing infections. At the time of menstruation, women use these tampons to restore vaginal flora. In the event of pain or itching, tampons can be used as an adjunct to treatment.

How long can I keep a probiotic tampon?

It's advisable to replace intimate protection products every 4 to 6 hours. The exact duration depends on the amount of blood flowing and the absorbency of the tampon. If blood starts to flow before 4 or 6 hours have passed, it's advisable to remove and replace it as soon as possible.
Some specialists believe that you can safely keep a tampon in overnight or for up to 8 hours. All you have to do is try to do what feels right for you, and set up a routine that works for you.

If you keep it in too long, there's a small risk of developing Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS), a rare but dangerous infection. If you suddenly experience fever, diarrhea, vomiting or severe dizziness while using a tampon, go to the doctor or hospital emergency room immediately.
To reduce the risk of TSS, use tampons that are not too absorbent, such as low- or medium-loss models. This will mean changing them more often.

If you forget toremove your tampon, it may get squashed against the wall at the top of your vagina. Don't worry. Simply pull the string to remove it. If it's easier, you can even reach in with your fingers to pull it out. If you still can't remove it, visit your doctor or a gynecology clinic immediately.

How do probiotic tampons work?

Probiotic tampons work by gradually releasing lactobacilli or other beneficial bacteria into the vagina during use. These micro-organisms :

Restore or maintain a healthy vaginal pH: usually around 4.5, which prevents the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria.
Reinforce the vagina's natural barrier: By increasing the concentration of lactobacilli, probiotic tampons support the body's natural defense mechanisms.
Reduce discomfort associated with vaginal imbalances: itching, irritation, unpleasant odours or unusual discharge.

What are the benefits of probiotic tampons?

Double action: menstrual protection and vaginal well-being: as well as absorbing menstrual flow, these tampons actively support vaginal flora, making them a unique solution for women prone to imbalances.
Prevention of vaginal infections: By maintaining a healthy pH and increasing the number of good bacteria, probiotic tampons help prevent bacterial vaginosis and mycosis, particularly common during menstruation.
Discreet, practical alternative: Probiotic tampons are as easy to use as conventional tampons. They offer a discreet way to care for your vaginal flora without changing your menstrual routine.
Natural solution: the lactobacilli used are generally derived from natural sources and are harmless to health. They respect the intimate balance without introducing chemical or irritant substances.

How do I use a probiotic tampon?

Directions for use :

Wash your hands thoroughly before insertion.
Insert the tampon in the same way as a conventional tampon.
Change the tampon every 4 to 8 hours, depending on your flow.
Use only during the menstrual period, unless otherwise indicated.

For optimum effect on vaginal flora, probiotic tampons should be used throughout the menstrual period, or over several consecutive cycles in the event of recurrent vaginal imbalance.

Probiotic tampons are suitable for all skin types, even sensitive. They can be used as a complement to treatment for mycosis or vaginosis, but do not replace medical treatment in the event of active infection.

Who are probiotic tampons designed for?

Probiotic tampons are particularly suitable for..:

Women prone to recurrent vaginal infections (mycosis, vaginosis).
Women whose vaginal flora is sensitive or weakened by factors such as stress, hormonal changes or medication (antibiotics).
Women wishing to take preventive care of their vaginal flora during their periods.

Unlike conventional tampons, probiotic tampons don't just absorb menstrual flow. They also act on the vaginal balance by providing beneficial micro-organisms. What's more, probiotic tampons are often formulated without potentially irritating substances, such as chlorine or fragrances, making them gentler on the intimate zone.
