Usage Information

Q: When and how often should I insert the pH-D suppository?

A: You insert the suppository like you would a tampon. You can use your fingers and push it up until you can’t feel it anymore.

Q: What happens when I use boric acid suppositories?
A: Some women may experience mild burning or irritation. This may occur if the suppository was not inserted far enough into the vagina or if you have any irritated or open skin within the vagina. Women may also experience watery leakage, so we recommend using a panty liner at night.

Q: I used a suppository and have experienced some spotting, should I be concerned?
A: A small percentage of women experience spotting when using boric acid suppositories. It is safe to continue use if you are comfortable doing so. However, if it worsens or you begin to experience burning or irritation, we recommend you discontinue use.

Q: I used a suppository and have experienced some bleeding, should I be concerned?
A: A small percentage of women experience bleeding when using boric acid suppositories. It is safe to continue use if it is slight and you are comfortable doing so. However, discontinue use if it worsens and becomes more pronounced. Also, discontinue use if you experience burning or irritation.

Q: Can I have sex while taking pH-D suppositories? Oral sex?
A: Yes, you can have sex (including oral sex) after using pH-D. However, it is important to make sure the suppository has completely dissolved before doing so to avoid mild skin irritation. It can take anywhere from 4-12 hours to dissolve, but each woman is individual, and times may be longer or shorter.
