How does a gummy reach the right place?
It doesn't travel there directly. Lactobacillus taken orally pass through the digestive tract, and research on these strains looks at whether they can survive that journey and go on to colonise. That's exactly why the strain matters more than the number: rhamnosus and reuteri are among the most studied for this route, which is why we chose them over generic gut strains.
How is this different from the probiotic I've already tried?
Most likely: strains. A lot of products list a big CFU number and a "proprietary blend", which means you can't see what you're actually taking. We name both strains and print the amount. If the last one didn't work for you, you probably never knew what was in it.
Only 5 billion CFU? I've seen 50 billion elsewhere.
Higher isn't better, it's just easier to advertise. CFU counts the bacteria; it doesn't tell you whether they're the right ones for you. We'd rather give you two strains chosen for the female microbiome than fifty billion of something formulated for digestion.
Is there a subscription?
Only if you choose one. Nothing is added to your order automatically, and if you do subscribe you can cancel any time from your account in a couple of clicks. No phone calls, no waiting on email.
When will I notice something?
Honestly, it varies. The microbiome shifts gradually, so most women give it a full month before judging. That's why we give you 60 days rather than 30. If nothing has changed by then, you get your money back.
What if it doesn't work for me?
Email us within 60 days and we'll refund you in full.
Can I take it alongside my medication?
Have a word with your GP or pharmacist first, particularly if you're on antibiotics, pregnant, nursing, or immunocompromised. We'd rather you check than guess.
Do I keep taking it, or is this a course?
It's daily, like any routine. The bacteria don't set up permanently, so the balance is maintained by consistency rather than by finishing a course.
Is it suitable if I'm past menopause?
That's who it was formulated for. Falling oestrogen changes the environment your natural flora depends on, which is why we built this around women over 45 rather than a general audience.
Does it taste like medicine?
Pineapple. Two a day, chewed, no water needed.
Where is it made?
In a GMP-certified facility, with every batch third-party tested for purity and potency.
