What is REPLENSMD?
REPLENSMD is a HORMONE-FREE vaginal moisterising gel which provides longer lasting relief from symtoms of vaginal atrophy and dryness, itching, irritation and (where applicable) painful intercourse. Regular use, three times each week, provides continual relief of symptoms. REPLENSMD is a Medical Device made under totally hygienic pharmaceutical manufacturing conditions. |

What does REPLENSMD do?
REPLENSMD lubricates the entire vaginal passage and actively moisturises dehydrated cells. Used regularly, three times each week, REPLENSMD also improves the elasticity of vaginal walls, encourages the return of natural secretions, and restores the natural acidity of the vagina. |
| |
What are the ingredients?
REPLENSMD contains purified water (78.8%) as the active ingredient. This is slowly released from poly carbophil - an inert, acidic, bioadhesive polymer which clings to the vaginal walls and serves to hold the gel in place. REPLENSMD also contains mineral oil, glycerin, hydrogenated palm oil glyceride, Carbomer 074P, sorbic acid and sodium hydroxide. REPLENSMD contains no animal derivatives. |
| |
How does it work?
REPLENSMD adheres to the vaginal walls, until the cells to which it clings are naturally shed. By so doing, it provides longer lasting lubrication. Meanwhile, the purified water it contains is driven into the dehydrated tissues to effect continual moisterisation and the return of natural secretions. Polycarbophil, being acidic, also has the effect of restoring a natural level of vaginal acidity. |
| |
How is it used?
Applying REPLENSMD vaginal moisteriser directly from the specially designed sealed applicator into the vagina enables you to place it exactly where needed. Clinical studies have shown that the best results are achieved from regular use, three times a week in the morning, rather than with random usage. |
| |
How is REPLENSMD supplied?
REPLENSMD is available in three pack sizes:
- A three applicator pack (one week's treatment)
- A six applicator pack (two week's treatment)
- A 35g tube with a reusable applicator (which allows up 12 applications or one month's treatment)
A range is available so you can buy the pack that suits your needs. |
| |
How often should I use ReplensMD?
We recommend beginning with 3 applications a week. Depending on the level of initial dryness ReplensMD can be used more than this if necessary. Over time use can be reduced to once a week. Unfortunately there is no cure for vaginal dryness that is the result of the menopause, hysterectomy or medication and medical treatments such as radiotherapy and if use is stopped completely then symptoms will eventually return. |
| |
Why use it in the morning?
This is only a recommendation as the body’s natural movement during the day will allow the gel to distribute itself around the vaginal passage for greater level of comfort rather than lying in one area. ReplensMD can be used before bed and while you sleep. |
| |
For how long can I use ReplensMD?
You can use ReplensMD indefinitely. ReplensMD will cling to cells until they are naturally shed every 72 hours with none of the ingredients being absorbed into the body further than the vaginal walls. |
| |
How will using ReplensMD affect my sex life?
As the condition improves you will experience a return of your natural secretions and subsequently will be able once again to enjoy spontaneous intercourse. Sex will no longer be painful or uncomfortable. It is not necessary to use ReplensMD immediately before intercourse. ReplensMD will not affect your partner during unprotected oral or penetrative sex. It is not poisonous and has no taste or smell. If, in the early stages of treatment, extra lubrication is be required for intercourse, ReplensMD is safe to use with any over the counter water based lubricant. ReplensMD is not a contraceptive. |
