The gel is contained in hygienic single use tubes and is easy to apply. Insert the neck of the tube into the vagina, and squeeze until tube is empty. For optimal results, leave in overnight and wear a sanitary towel to prevent leakage of the product.nCan be used to help maintain the healthy bacteria in the vagina after the treatment has been successful.
