Product information

Bacterial infections are the most common cause of premature birth and can develop within 2-3 days. An uneasy feeling, itching or burning in the intimate area sets alarm bells ringing in every woman. The acidic vaginal environment is normally below a pH of 4.4 and forms a natural protective barrier against bacteria and germs. The naturally occurring lactic acid bacteria ensure a healthy acid balance in the intimate area. Hormonal changes or external influences can reduce the number of lactic acid bacteria in favor of harmful bacteria and increase the risk of infection. The interval between preventive examinations by your doctor or midwife is often too long to detect and treat a possible infection. With the ELANEE Vaginal pH Self-Test, you can quickly and easily check your pH at home at any time.

Application areas

A pH value above 4.4 indicates a shift in the acid balance. It thus provides an indication of the risk or presence of a bacterial infection in the intimate area. If a shift in pH is detected early, the environment can be restored to normal with natural remedies such as a course of lactic acid. Untreated bacterial vaginal infections are often the cause of reduced fertility. If bacterial infections go unnoticed during pregnancy, they can rise and increase the risk of

premature labor,
premature rupture of the membranes,
premature birth,
a bacterial infection of the fetus,
fever during delivery,
inflammation of the ovaries (chorioamnionitis), and
postpartum endometritis (inflammation of the lining of the uterus).

The use of the ELANEE Vaginal pH Self-Test is therefore useful in the following cases:

When bacterial vaginosis is suspected.
If a disturbed balance (dysbiosis) is suspected
After anti-infective therapy (e.g. treatment with antibiotics)
In the context of preventive examinations during pregnancy
During pregnancy
With known risk of premature birth
After sexual contact with a new partner
When intimate complaints occur
Before and after vaginal surgery (In the case of injuries that have not yet healed completely, only after consultation with the doctor).

Functionality

ELANEE Vaginal pH Self-Test is a reliable, hygienic and painless method of determining vaginal pH. The test enables the detection of the vaginal microecological balance or its disturbance. As soon as the pH measurement zone on the applicator comes into contact with vaginal secretion, a color change occurs. Depending on the acidity of the fluid, the measuring zone takes on a different color, which can be assigned to a value on the color scale. This value is the test result.

Application:

Wash your hands before performing the test.

2.Open the folded box, take out a test and open the foil. Do not remove the applicator until shortly before the test. 3.Hold the applicator by the grip zone between your thumb and index finger (see Fig.1).

4. Avoid contact between the pH measurement area and other liquids.

5. Sit with your legs apart or place one foot on the toilet lid or another stable surface while standing.
6. With your free hand, gently spread the labia minora in front of the vaginal opening.

 
7. Gently insert the applicator like a tampon 1 to 3 cm into the vagina (Fig. 2) (no further than the grip ring). The insertion of the vaginal applicator is completely painless. 8.Gently press the inserted applicator against the posterior vaginal wall (on the side of the rectum) for approx. 10 seconds so that the measuring area for determining the pH value is well moistened.
 

CAUTION! Sufficient moistening is very important for the test evaluation.
9. Then carefully remove the applicator from the vagina.

 

10. Read the result immediately after removing the applicator from the vagina while the measuring area is still wet (Fig. 3). Compare the color of the pH measuring area with the color scale and select the color that is closest to your measurement.

11 Record the value in the test diary.
12. After use, dispose of the applicator in the household waste.

Material & Cleaning

The test strips of the ELANEE Vaginal pH Self Test are non-bleeding, i.e. they do not release any dyes or other substances. They may be inserted into the vagina. Under no circumstances should you use pH test strips that release substances (e.g. water tests). The ELANEE Vaginal pH Self-Test consists of an approx. 8 cm vaginal applicator with an integrated pH measuring strip (MERCK pH indicator strips, pH 4.0 – 7.0). Store the test in the closed protective bag in a dry place and at room temperature. The test should be stored out of reach of children. The vaginal applicator is not intended for reuse and can be disposed of in household waste after use.
