Key takeaways

Vaginal pH regulators are used to prevent pregnancy. These medications maintain the natural acidity of your vagina, making it harder for sperm to reach the egg, which helps lower the risk of pregnancy. Vaginal pH regulators typically come in the form of gels that you apply directly inside your vagina. An example is lactic acid/citric acid/potassium bitartrate (Phexxi).
