Tanafem (douche) Plant tannin for women 45g
Tanafem® consists of a blend of natural herbal tannates designed for fighting yeast, fungal and bacterial agents that infect the vagina. Tanafem® is available in a convenient jar, containing 15 individual treatments.
What is in Tanafem® and how does it work?
Clinically tested, Tanafem® is an herbal vaginal douche powder made of condensed Zinc tannins buffered with Glycine. Like Tanalbit®, the tannins in Tanafem® bond to unwanted yeast/bacterial organisms. During the douching process, the tannin/yeast complex leaves the vaginal area with the spent douche solution. Tanafem® is one of the gentlest and effective alternative vaginal solutions available for vaginal candida (yeast) and bacteria overgrowth. Tanafem® will only address infestations of the vaginal area, however, we have found that combining Tanalbit® with Tanafem® can help and may reduce the incidence of recurrent infections. This may be especially true if a gastrointestinal infestation of yeast is suspected.
How is Tanafem® superior to other yeast/bacterial regimens for the vagina?
Tanafem® does not kill yeast/bacteria organisms and due to this fact, bacteria/yeast organisms do not build up a resistance to the Tanafem® product and Tanafem® can be used at a later time if symptoms reoccur. Tanafem® is buffered to ensure compatibility with the unique and sensitive vaginal environment and as a consequence is significantly less irritating than OTC medication.
How to use Tanafem®
Mix one dose/scoop of Tanafem® with 1/2 cup to 1 cup of lukewarm water in applicator bottle. Insert applicator and douche until solution is gone. Use Tanafem® only once daily for three days. Rest one day and then resume for another 3 day cycle if symptoms persist. For best results, refrain from sexual intercourse (so as to avoid re-infection or infecting partner) during regimen and do not use other products while using Tanafem®. Do not use Tanafem® for longer than 7 days total.
