Acid jelly is a versatile vaginal medication designed to address various vaginal health concerns. It comes in gel form and is known for its pH-balancing properties. This topical treatment can effectively combat yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis, and other common vaginal issues by restoring the natural acidity of the vaginal environment. While generally safe and available over the counter, it’s essential to follow recommended dosage instructions and consult a healthcare provider for personalized guidance when using acid jelly.
