Gynocare Vaginal Ovules (Gynocare Insert)

Gynocare Ovules are a highly effective "triple-action" treatment for mixed vaginal infections. Manufactured by CHI Pharmaceuticals Limited, these vaginal inserts (commonly called Gynocare insert in Nigeria) are specifically formulated to combat both fungal and bacterial pathogens simultaneously, providing relief from discomfort and promoting vaginal health.

What is Gynocare Ovules used for?

In Nigeria, Gynocare is a trusted remedy for "toilet infection," a local term used to describe symptoms like vaginal itching, burning sensations, and unusual discharge. It is particularly effective for:

• Bacterial Vaginosis (BV): Caused by an overgrowth of harmful bacteria.
• Vaginal Candidiasis (Yeast Infection): Caused by fungal overgrowth.
• Mixed Infections: Where both bacteria and fungi are present at the same time.

Active Ingredients

Each Gynocare Ovule contains:

• Nystatin (100,000 IU): An antifungal agent that kills yeast cells.
• Neomycin Sulfate (35,000 IU): An antibiotic that targets various bacterial strains.
• Polymyxin B Sulfate (35,000 IU): An antibiotic that disrupts bacterial cell membranes.

Does Gynocare ovule burn?

It is common for users to wonder if vaginal inserts cause a "pepperish" or burning sensation. While most women use Gynocare comfortably, a mild, temporary warmth or burning may occur as the ovule dissolves. If you experience severe irritation, stop use and speak with a GoMed pharmacist.

How to use Gynocare Ovules

For the best results, follow these steps:

1. Wash Hands: Always wash your hands before and after handling the ovule.
2. Timing: Insert one ovule deep into the vagina at bedtime to allow it to dissolve while you rest.
3. Position: Lie on your back with knees bent for easier insertion.
4. Consistency: Complete the full 6 to 12-day course as prescribed, even if symptoms like itching disappear after the first few days.

Precautions

• Medical Advice: This is a prescription-only medication. Consult a GoMed pharmacist if you have questions about your symptoms.
• Pregnancy: Always consult your doctor before using Gynocare Ovules if you are pregnant.
• Herbal Distinction: Ensure you are using the CHI Pharmaceuticals ovule for infections, not the herbal capsules often sold under a similar name.
