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.
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 reoccurring, 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.
