Pharmachologic effect
Gynoflor E is an antimicrobial and antiseptic that is used in gynecology. Contains active substances identical to those naturally found in the human vagina. A healthy vagina is in a state of biological equilibrium and has a natural defense mechanism against infections.

Lactobacilli bacteria form the main part of this protective mechanism, they produce lactic acid and other substances that have anti-infectious effects. The production of lactic acid as a result leads to the formation of an acidic environment that promotes the development of Lactobacilli bacteria and inhibits the development of pathogenic microorganisms. Violation or destruction of the vaginal fermented milk flora can occur as a result of treatment with certain drugs (e.g. antibiotics), due to local infections, serious systemic diseases or improper hygiene measures (vaginal rinses and showers). Gynoflor E contains high doses of viable bacteria Lactobacill��, helping to restore the natural flora of the vagina. In addition to the natural flora, the state of the vaginal epithelium is very important for the natural protective mechanism of the vagina. It can be damaged due to fluctuations or deficiencies in hormone levels (especially during or after menopause) and vaginal infections.

The second active substance of Gynoflora E is estriol, which is a natural female sex hormone. Estriol, even at a very low dose, contained in Ginoflora E, provides restoration of the vaginal epithelium, good blood circulation in it, sufficient thickness, elasticity and its moisturization. It is also important for the development of Lactobacilli bacteria in the vagina. Both the bacteria Lactobacilli and estriol act locally in the vagina.

Lactose, which is part of vaginal tablets, can be quickly fermented by Lactobacilli bacteria into lactic acid. Thus, after the first use of the drug, reproduction and recolonization of Lactobacilli bacteria begins.

Indications
To restore the Lactobacillus flora after treatment with certain therapeutic agents (e.g. antibiotics);
for the treatment of local disorders during and after menopause (dry vagina, itching, burning, pain during intercourse) and as concomitant treatment during systemic hormone replacement therapy;
for the treatment of vaginal discharge of unknown origin or mild to moderate cases of vaginal infections in which the use of antibiotics or chemotherapeutic agents is not exclusively necessary.

Pregnancy and lactation
The experience of using Gynoflora E during pregnancy does not indicate undesirable effects on pregnancy or the health of the fetus of a newborn baby. The active substances, Lactobacillus acidophilus and estriol, are naturally found in the vagina, and after applying Gynoflora, the levels of both substances do not exceed their levels in healthy women. Thus, Gynoflor E can be used during pregnancy. As with any other medicine during pregnancy, consult your doctor.

Gynoflor E can be used during lactation.

Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to estriol, bacteria Lactobacill�� or other substances Gynoflora E;
estrogen-dependent tumors in the mammary gland, uterus or vagina;
endometriosis;
vaginal bleeding of unknown origin;

Side effects
Light burning or heat; redness and itching.

Interaction
Concomitant treatment with anti-infective agents (e.g., topical or systemic antibiotics) can lead to a decrease in the effectiveness of Gynoflora E.

Special instructions

If you experience unexpected vaginal bleeding, stop treatment and your doctor should find out the cause of the bleeding.

During treatment with Ginoflor E, do not use vaginal showers or rinses. Ginoflor E contains components that do not completely break down, the remains of the tablet can sometimes be found on underwear. This does not affect the effectiveness of the drug.

In isolated cases, if the vagina is very dry, the vaginal tablet may not dissolve and exit the vagina in its original form. In this case, the treatment is not optimal, although it does not harm the vagina. To prevent such cases, the tablet may be moistened with a small amount of ordinary water before administration.

During treatment, Ginoflor E should be used pads.
