Renew Life Women's Probiotic Capsules, 50 Billion CFU Guaranteed, Supports pH Balance, Vaginal, Urinary, Digestive and Immune Health(2), L. Rhamnosus GG, Dairy, Soy and Gluten-Free, 30 Count

I do not TYPICALLY write reviews, but I swore with everything I have that if I found something that worked for me, I would definitely share the information. I know that millions on women are suffering with BV, the embarrassment of having it, constantly thinking about it, and even going through bouts of depression because NOTHING is fixing the problem. I've dealt with BV for over 3 years, and when I tell you I've tried flagyl (which was just awful on my body, just to have the BV return), to all kinds of home remedies, that gave some relief, but didn't resolve my Problem. Now, I'm fully aware that every women's body is different, and what works for one, may not work for all. For example, no matter how good a product is, I cannot insert a capsule, or anything in my vagina...I found that it made matters worse. I could only take oral capsules, and hoped for the best. This is what I believe...if you've had BV for years, the BAD BACTERIA has taken over, and made your vagina a nest egg for bad bacteria to grow. That BAD BACTERIA is very STUBBORN, and it does not easily respond to treatment. In order to fight the BAD BACTERIA, you need a HEFTY DOSE OF GOOD BACTERIA (it's like a war going on down there). I've tried various dosages of CFU's. NOTHING touched me until I found the correct dosage that my body would respond to, and that's the 50 billion flora (not the 4, 15, 20...my body responded to 50 Billion). I believe the aggressive dosage of 50 billion is needed, because BV is just as aggressive, THAT'S WHY IT KEEPS COMING BACK. HERE'S MY TESTIMONY: After suffering from BV for over 3 years, I decided to try the 50 billion Ultimate flora, and YES IT WORKED FOR ME. I no longer have odor, discharge, or burning. I have a perfectly PH balanced vagina. I currently take 1 capsule in the morning (orally), and one at night. My intentions are to cut back to only one capsule eventually. I promised MYSELF that I would write a testimonial and not keep this to myself. My heart sympathizes with other women going through BV (I know, it is like a curse). I promise, I'll share this information with my GYN Doc, because for some reason, they don't seem to know about this??? which is weird. Not once, did my Doctor suggest probiotics, He only prescribed Flagyl. Look ladies, this is your life, your body...fight for it! there is hope, there is real relief, don't give up. I am one thankful woman, I thank the makers of this product, I thank other women for their testimonials, and I thank God for hearing my prayers and helping me find something that works for me! I wish you all the best on your journey to become balanced...you will get there! just find the right amount of CFU's and you would have cracked the code. I've also decreased eating sugar, increased my protein, and incorporated drinking 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar mixed in 8oz of water. All I can HONESTLY say, is that it's working. Please note, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY FREE GIFTS OR ANYTHING FOR MY TESTIMONIAL. I am leaving this testimonial from the depth of my heart because I feel that I need to share this with other women who may be struggling with BV. Health, blessings, and balance to ALL!!

I love this probiotic. It makes everything run smoothly if you know what I mean. The 50 billion is also great. It just needs to be stored below 77 deg to be effective so easy to have it shipped to you so long as it's not peak summer. Otherwise, get it from whole foods in the cold section.

Love this brand over others!

I have tried so many other products but nothing works as well for my gut & women’s health as this probiotic. Thank you for formulating something that actually works!

I am using this product to help combat a serious recurring nightmarish episode of vaginal candida that is made worse by surgical menopause induced vaginal atrophy. I am only 37, and had a total hysterectomy at 31. HRT is necessary for my well being but hormones have never agreed with me and cause yeast that has become resistant to antifungals. Furthermore, I suffer from chronic constipation and gastritis, AND I had a lot of health problems in a 2-3 yr time period where I was on antibiotics constantly. Surgically induced menopause has wrecked my system and I have been spending a lot of time and money to adjust to my “new” body.Firstly, I think I need to take these twice a day. I feel like the absorption is inhibited by my gastritis medication. Also, the estrogen cream I desperately need for my vajayjay, is known to cause horrible yeast infections. I have to use this cream 2-3x a week. So I am going to try this twice daily route.I cannot give it 5 stars because I am still having chronic candida, however, this stuff is working wonders for my digestive system. I have purchased several bottles of these, but my system has been out of whack for almost 7 years. 7 years of my body enduring hormonal hell and antibiotic overload. This isn’t something that is going to just go away without a fight, especially not yeast that is resistant to daily diflucan.I think the first step is getting my digestive system moving regularly, and after 7 years, these are helping with that. Because of the severity of my case, and absorption problems, I may need more than one a day, at least for a while. So, I am going to try an AM and PM routine. Hopefully it will help. It would be WONDERFUL if it finally knocks this junk out but like I said, there’s a lot of damage and I need a big arsenal.For first time users, expect to be a bit gassy at first, but for me, it went away. Quite frankly, if it gets my gut moving unlike other probiotics, I do not care about gas and bloating! But that’s just me and we are all different. This is potent stuff, and it hasn’t “cured” me but it has definitely improved my poor digestive system and this alone has been a huge part of my recovery process. I wouldn’t be surprised if it starts helping other systems over time...because like I said, it took a long time to get like this.

Love it
