Can I have sex while using pH-D suppositories? Oral sex?
Yes, you can have sex (including oral sex) while using pH-D suppositories, but it’s important to wait until the suppository has fully dissolved. This takes between 4 and 12 hours depending on the woman. Engaging in sex too soon after insertion may cause mild irritation for both you and your partner. To avoid discomfort, we recommend allowing enough time for the product to dissolve completely. As the #1 Doctor Recommended Boric Acid Suppository, pH-D is designed to fit seamlessly into your routine while ensuring comfort for you and your partner.
When and how often should I insert the pH-D suppository?
We recommend using one suppository every night until odor free. For some women, this will be 2-3 days, for others it may take longer. For more intense odor, you can use one every 12 hours. When odor is reoccuring, you can insert a suppository 2-4 times a week or after certain known triggers like intercourse or menstruation. Since the suppository is the #1 Doctor Recommended Boric Acid Suppository, we ensure it’s safe and effective even for frequent use. We recommend wearing a panty liner during the day, as there may be some watery leakage.
How long should you use pH-D Boric Acid Suppositories?
Use the suppositories until you are odor-free. If you're prone to recurrent vaginal odor, using 2-4 suppositories per week is safe and effective. As the #1 Doctor Recommended Boric Acid Suppository, pH-D is designed for regular use as part of your vaginal care routine.
Can I switch between the Moisturizing and Original Boric Acid Suppository formulas depending on my needs?
Yes, you can switch between the Moisturizing and Original pH-D Boric Acid Vaginal Suppositories based on your needs. For instance, you might use the Moisturizing version during periods of dryness and the Original version when dryness is not an issue. Both formulas are designed to provide the same level of vaginal odor control.
Is it safe to continue using pH-D Boric Acid Suppositories if I’m experiencing bleeding or cramping?
A small percentage of women may experience spotting or mild bleeding while using boric acid suppositories. It is generally safe to continue using the suppositories if the bleeding is slight and you feel comfortable doing so. However, if the bleeding or cramping becomes more pronounced or uncomfortable, we recommend discontinuing use and consulting with a healthcare provider. Your well-being is our priority, and we want to ensure you feel confident and safe while using our products.
I swallowed a pH-D Boric Acid Suppository by mistake. What should I do?
First, don’t worry—this happens more often than you might think, and you’re definitely not alone. While a single swallowed suppository is unlikely to cause significant harm, it’s important to follow safety protocols to be sure. We recommend contacting the Poison Control Center immediately at 1-800-222-1222. They’re there to provide expert guidance and will let you know if any further action is necessary. Your safety is our top priority, and we want to make sure you have peace of mind.
Will the Moisturizing pH-D Boric Acid Vaginal Suppository cause any extra leakage?
While both the Moisturizing and Original pH-D Boric Acid Vaginal Suppositories may cause some watery leakage, the Moisturizing formula might produce slightly more due to the additional oils. We recommend wearing a panty liner with either formula to stay comfortable.
Will the Moisturizing pH-D Boric Acid Vaginal Suppository inhibit the effectiveness of boric acid?
No, the moisturizing ingredients in the pH-D Moisturizing Boric Acid Vaginal Suppository—coconut oil and vitamin E oil—do not interfere with the effectiveness of the boric acid. Both versions contain the same 600 mg of boric acid, ensuring consistent odor control. The added moisturizing ingredients simply provide extra comfort and hydration.
Is the Moisturizing pH-D Boric Acid Vaginal Suppository better for long-term use?
If you experience vaginal dryness regularly, the Moisturizing pH-D Boric Acid Vaginal Suppository may be more comfortable for long-term use due to the added hydration benefits from coconut oil and vitamin E oil. However, both formulas are suitable for long-term use, depending on your individual needs and comfort.
