Fem PH

When your vaginal pH level is off or unbalanced, you might experience a foul or fishy smell, unusual discharge, vaginal itching, or buring during urination. Unbalanced pH can also lead to fungal or bacterial vaginal infections. Fem pH (acetic acid / oxyquinoline) works to balance your vaginal acidity by preventing the pH level in the vagina from changing.

Your provider will determine how long you need to use Fem pH (acetic acid / oxyquinoline) based on how your body responds to the medication and your medical condition. Let your provider know if this medication is helping you with your vaginal symptoms.

Monitoring the vaginal acidity (pH) is typically not required, but sometimes it might be useful to see how well Fem pH (acetic acid / oxyquinoline) is working. The typical normal vaginal pH is between 4 and 5. Ask your provider if you have any questions about checking vaginal acidity.

Fem pH (acetic acid / oxyquinoline) hasn't been approved by the FDA because this medication hasn't been found by the FDA to be safe and effective (work well). Sometimes, the FDA allows unapproved medications to be on the market because there aren't any available FDA-approved medications or not enough supply of FDA-approved medications to treat certain conditions. Talk with your healthcare provider about the risks and benefits of using Fem pH (acetic acid / oxyquinoline).
