To clear Ureaplasma, when should I take probiotics to be most beneficial?

Usage Guide

  • Active Treatment Phase: Take 2 Vaginal Probiotic capsules orally daily with a meal as soon as you begin using your NeuEve BV Clear or age-specific suppository. During this phase, avoid vaginal insertion of probiotics to ensure the suppository can work without interference.
  • Maintenance Phase: Once your Ureaplasma and/or Mycoplasma have been cleared (your symptoms subside), you may insert 1 capsule vaginally once daily on the days you are not using a NeuEve maintenance suppository.
  • Note: If you have used antibiotics, such as doxycycline, to treat Ureaplasma, a common side effect is yeast infection. You can use probiotics and eat probiotic foods, such as yogurt and kefir, to help prevent it. However, if you have noticed yeast infection symptoms, like itching, burning, and cottage-cheese-like discharge, you will need to clear the yeast first. 

Why This Matters

  • Environment First: Probiotics often fail on their own because the vaginal environment (the "pond") must be restored by NeuEve before beneficial bacteria (the "fish") can thrive.
  • Restoring Balance: A healthy microbiome requires at least a 10-to-1 ratio of good bacteria to bad. If you have recurring Ureaplasma-related BV or have recently used antibiotics, your protective Lactobacillus levels are likely low.
  • Effective Delivery: Oral doses are higher (2 capsules) to ensure enough beneficial bacteria survive stomach acid. Vaginal insertion allows for direct, localized colonization.
  • Safety & Precision: We specifically recommend NeuEve probiotics because many other brands contain aggressive strains that can lead to Lactobacillus overgrowth, causing a painful condition known as cytolytic vaginosis (CV).

Probiotic Tips & Information

  • Vaginal Application: Most users successfully use the oral capsules as vaginal inserts. You can drip a few drops of water on the capsule before insertion. The water drops can help lubricate the capsule and also help make the insertion a little easier. Using an applicator may help you insert it a little deeper. If you prefer not to insert a capsule, you can open it and apply the powder directly to the vaginal walls using a clean cotton swab.
  • Storage: Probiotics are sensitive to heat and moisture. To maximize their shelf life and potency, store them in the refrigerator immediately upon receipt.
  • Duration of Use: While long-term probiotic use supports vaginal and urinary health, a single bottle of NeuEve Vaginal Probiotics is often sufficient to restore your flora.
  • Oral Benefits: Beyond vaginal health, taking probiotics orally supports your immune system, aids digestion, and maintains healthy flora throughout the body.
