At first glance, it\u2019s unclear if this product simply isn\u2019t marketed all that well, or if consumers can safely assume that it has been discontinued.<\/p>\n<p>But, after a bit more research, we found that this product is sold in Canada only\u2014meaning customers in the US and elsewhere may found themselves out of luck.<\/p>\n<p>We were able to find this product for sale on Amazon Canada\u2014for $29.99 CAD. It doesn\u2019t appear to be sold anywhere else, aside from eBay where the price range is $30-300. It\u2019s been pulled from the US Amazon site, and is not sold directly from the manufacturer.<\/p>\n<p>There are so many products on the market similar to <strong>PureFem Probiotics<\/strong> that it\u2019s not necessarily going to be worth it for consumers outside of Canada to try and track this down.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-menopause-supplements\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-119188\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/PurFem-Probiotics-compare.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/PurFem-Probiotics-compare.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/PurFem-Probiotics-compare-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/PurFem-Probiotics-compare-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-menopause-supplements\/\">Click the link for a closer look at why menopause causes such strange symptoms \u2014 plus, how to deal with them with ease.<\/a><\/p>\n<h5><strong>Business of PureFem Probiotics <\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><strong>PureFem Probiotics <\/strong>is made by a Canadian pharmaceutical company known as Aralez Pharmaceuticals. Their contact information is listed below:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phone:<\/strong> 866-391-4503<\/p>\n<p><strong>Email: <\/strong>customerservice@tributepharma.com<\/p>\n<p><strong>PureFem Probiotics<\/strong>, as we\u2019ve mentioned above was somewhat difficult to track down. The company that makes this product appears to only sell to Canadian consumers\u2014whether that\u2019s through Amazon or smaller pharmacies.<\/p>\n<p>Initially, we were wary of recommending this product due to the lack of information available to consumers in the US\u2014but it does look like this is a reputable company, and <strong>PureFem Probiotics<\/strong> do have some positive reviews on the books.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, the official Aralez Pharmaceuticals website isn\u2019t especially informative. The site offers about two lines of description, and from there mentions this product is not meant for sale outside of Canada.<\/p>\n<p>We never get a sense of who, exactly should use this, what the ingredients are or how much it\u2019s supposed to cost. It\u2019s also not clear if <strong>PureFem Probiotics<\/strong> is intended to be an over-the-counter product, or if it\u2019s available in Canada by prescription only.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Customer Opinions of PureFem Probiotics<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><strong>PureFem Probiotics<\/strong> has been removed from its original Amazon listing, but Amazon Canada is hosting the reviews from the now-defunct page. Here\u2019s a look at what some users had to say about their experience with this supplement:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cWorks pretty good, but you have to purchase the applicator separately, which honestly, just doesn\u2019t make sense. It\u2019s already kind of overpriced and definitely should just make things easy for shoppers.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cI was getting UTIs on a regular basis for over a year. The doctor tried to put me on HRT, because I\u2019m going through menopause, but I didn\u2019t feel comfortable. This product is pretty good\u2014does the job.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cPureFem Probiotics is great\u00a0 for clearing up itching dryness,\u00a0 burning, odor, everything. It only comes with one applicator, and you do need to wash it with each use. Other than that, it\u2019s pretty fantastic.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cI had bacterial vaginosis for about 3 months, took antibiotics and a few other treatments before taking a chance on PurFem. It cleared this up pretty quickly. I\u2019d for sure recommend this to a friend.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Based on the reviews, this product seems like it works as advertised. Canadian customers may do well with this product, but those outside of the region should be wary\u2014as sales are not authorized by the manufacturer and consumers may get counterfeit or expired product.<\/p>\n<p>We liked that there were some menopausal users that discussed their experience with <strong>PureFem Probiotics<\/strong>. Based on the few anecdotes that mentioned hormone-related dryness, BV and yeast infections, this probiotic appears to have helped with those symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s just worth pointing out, that addressing the hormone issue is likely the best long term solution for recurring BV in menopausal women. But, hormone-balancing supplements may take some time to kick in and a probiotic suppository could bring some instant relief in the meantime.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-10-menopause-supplements\/\">Get back on track \u2014 experts share their favorite menopause picks.<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- Widget Shortcode --><div id=\"execphp-26\" class=\"widget widget_execphp widget-shortcode area-btn-sb \">\t\t\t<div class=\"execphpwidget\"><div class=\"table-before-c\">text3<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><!-- \/Widget Shortcode -->\n<h5><strong>Conclusion &#8211; Does PureFem Probiotics Work?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><strong>PureFem Probiotics<\/strong> does have several good reviews\u2014people who mentioned this helped them with chronic yeast infections or BV, as well as some comments posted by menopausal women experiencing vaginal issues after a loss of hormones. Generally speaking, this product looks pretty good.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are a few issues. First of all, it is really difficult to find this product for sale\u2014we found it on Amazon Canada, but it\u2019s been removed from the US version of the site. We also had some difficulties finding this product anywhere else online. It\u2019s unclear if they have an official website, or if it\u2019s sold on any other channels.<\/p>\n<p>With that being said, it\u2019s certainly easy to see why we cannot recommend this product (to anyone outside of Canada), despite the fact that <strong>PureFem Probiotics <\/strong>has some good reviews. The makers of this product prohibit sale outside of the country, and users who are able to track the product down may be getting something nearing the expiration date.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also worth mentioning that menopausal women can likely benefit from these types of suppositories, but they are a short term fix. In menopause, hormones are at the root of vaginal concerns like BV, yeast infections, discharge, odor and more. For this reason, it\u2019s wise to address the hormones at fault, too.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve looked at so many different types of vaginal care products, menopause supplements and more. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/05\/femmetrinol-review\/\">Femmetrinol<\/a> stands out for its ability to help even hormones\u2014addressing dryness, odor and frequent vaginal infections, as well as the more common menopause symptoms like hot flashes and night sweats.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/05\/femmetrinol-review\/\">Femmetrinol<\/a> was created in a certified lab setting, and continues to be produced under stringent GMP standards. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/05\/femmetrinol-review\/\">Click this link here to learn more about how Femmetrinol can improve your live during menopause.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is it?
