3.  Mechanism of Action

Alfa fem’Care is a medical device in tablets for vaginal use, containing live Lactobacillus Acidophilus and lactic acid.

The uro-vaginal microflora is characterized by a complex microbial ecosystem that exerts a physiological defence against bacterial and Candida, the normal vaginal secretion has in fact an acid pH between 3.8 and 4.5 and the acidity is maintained by a normal level of estragon and by the resident bacterial microflora.

The bacterial flora that colonizes the vaginal mucosa is mainly composed of lactic acid bacteria (Bacillus Doderlein), which metabolize glycogen to lactic acid, responsible for maintaining acid environment which makes unfavourable colonization and development of the pathogenic microorganisms.

When the microbial balance is temporarily altered by hormonal factors (menstruation, pregnancy, menopause), by improper hygiene habits, or by the use of antibiotics, infections may arise caused by pathogens that alter deeply the microbial composition of the uro-vaginal area apparatus, with a drastic reduction of lactobacilli and manifestations of vaginitis and / or bacterial vaginosis.

The most common symptoms are burning, itching, dysuria and foul-smelling vaginal discharge.

Due to its particular composition once dissolved in the vagina, the fem’Care tablet frees the lactobacillus and lactic acid within minutes, lowering the vaginal pH to acid values between 4 and 4.5.
