Boric acid works by temporarily acidifying the vaginal environment, while DIVA Biome Balancer helps support the beneficial Lactobacillus that naturally keep the vaginal microbiome balanced. For those looking to maintain long-term vaginal health, a probiotic-forward approach can be an important part of their routine.
The Biome Balancer is a vaginal suppository so the probiotic strains are delivered directly to where they are intended to work. Using a suppository allows the probiotics to act locally, supporting vaginal balance and pH right at the source.

Yes. Vaginal discharge is a normal and healthy part of how the body functions. You may notice discharge after using the product as your body naturally responds and balances itself. However, if the discharge is unusual for you, has a strong odour, or is accompanied by irritation or discomfort, discontinue use and consult your healthcare provider.

If a vaginal suppository is accidentally ingested, remain calm. Contact your healthcare provider right away for guidance.

Yes. You can resume sexual activity after using the suppository. If you experience any irritation or discomfort, consider waiting until symptoms resolve or consult your healthcare provider.
Using the suppository before bed allows it to stay in place for a longer period, helping maximize its effectiveness. Nighttime use also reduces the likelihood of leakage or disruption from daily activities, supporting the best possible results.
While it’s safe to use the suppository during your period, we don’t recommend it, as menstrual flow may reduce the product’s effectiveness. If you haven’t started using the product yet, we suggest waiting until after your period. If you’ve already begun the regimen, it’s completely fine to continue.
Yes. You can urinate after inserting the suppository. Urinating will not affect the suppository, as the urethra (where urine passes) and the vagina (where the suppository is inserted) are separate.
Gently insert one capsule into the vagina as far as feels comfortable.
The Biome Balancer is formulated with clinically studied probiotic strains and is designed to help support vaginal health. It is not formally approved by individual gynaecologists, however, emerging clinical research suggests that probiotics may play a supportive role in vaginal care. We encourage you to speak with your gynaecologist or healthcare provider to decide what’s best for your individual needs as recommendations may vary.
Probiotics help support a balanced vaginal environment by maintaining a healthy pH and replenishing beneficial bacteria. They also help create a natural protective barrier that discourages the overgrowth of unwanted bacteria and yeast. When the vaginal microbiome is supported, overall comfort, odor balance, and vaginal wellness are better maintained.

The vaginal microbiome is the natural community of microorganisms—primarily beneficial bacteria—that live in the vagina. These bacteria help maintain a healthy pH, support natural defenses, and play an important role in overall vaginal health.
The vaginal microbiome plays a key role in maintaining a healthy balance by keeping the vagina slightly acidic, which helps limit the growth of harmful bacteria and yeast. This balance supports comfort, odor control, and the body’s natural defenses. The microbiome can be influenced by factors such as hormones, antibiotics, sexual activity, and stress, which is why supporting and maintaining this ecosystem is important for overall vaginal health.
The vaginal microbiome can be disrupted by everyday factors such as sexual activity, menstruation, and taking antibiotics. Hormonal changes, stress, and certain hygiene practices can also affect this delicate balance.
The Biome Balancer helps support and maintain a healthy vaginal microbiome by replenishing beneficial bacteria and promoting an optimal acidic pH. This balanced environment helps limit the overgrowth of unwanted bacteria or yeast, supports comfort, and reinforces the vagina’s natural defenses, especially during times of disruption such as hormonal changes, antibiotic use, stress, or sexual activity.
