Frequently Asked Questions

What is Clairvee?

Clairvee is a once daily oral probiotic formulation that has been clinically shown to balance the vaginal microbiome and restore vaginal pH to a healthy level. Balancing the vaginal microbiome can help resolve issues like odor, itching and discharge.

Clairvee is uniquely formulated with Clairvee Vaginal Blend™ (4B CFU L. acidophilus BLA-14, 1B CFU L. rhamnosus BHN001), lactoferrin, and folate, ingredients that have been shown to balance the vaginal microbiome, inhibit the growth and adherence of vaginal pathogens (infections), and support the vagina’s defense system.

Who can or should use Clairvee?

Clairvee can be used by any woman looking to sustain the good bacteria and yeast that balance their vaginal microbiome and maintain good vaginal health. Everyday factors can disrupt the vaginal microbiome in adult women at any age, such as sex, periods, menopause, diet, antibiotic use and many other external irritants.

What are the ingredients in Clairvee and how do they work?

Each Clairvee capsule contains:

Clairvee Vaginal Blend™: Live, active probiotic strains, specific to the vaginal flora, shown to help balance and maintain a healthy vaginal microbiome.
- 4 billion CFU lactobacilli acidophilus
- 1 billion CFU lactobacilli rhamnosus

Lactoferrin, 50mg: Key component of the natural vaginal defense system that works together with the Clairvee Vaginal Blend™ to help create a protective biofilm.

Folate (Folic Acid), 400mcg: Provides micronutrient support, folate may play a role in maintaining a healthy vaginal microbiome.

Clairvee Capsule™ Technology: Clairvee’s probiotic formulation is suspended in liquid folic acid and sealed in a second, outer capsule. This patented technology helps to protect the live probiotics and allows for a delayed release of the probiotics when ingested, thereby supporting optimal colonization and a reliable, high quality formulation that does not require refrigeration.

How long does Clairvee take to work?

Clairvee has been clinically shown to restore and maintain balance of the vaginal microbiome in as early as 15 days. However, everyday factors like sex, menstruation, underwear fabrics, stress, hot weather, and diet can disrupt the vaginal microbiome. Multiple clinical trials show that regular use of Clairvee maintains a healthy, balanced vaginal microbiome month after month, and we recommend making Clairvee part of your monthly routine to maintain a healthy microbiome and prevent symptoms of imbalance over the long term.

Why do I only need to take Clairvee for 15 days each month?

Clairvee’s uniquely powerful formulation is optimized for colonization, and data shows that probiotic protection continues to increase even on the days you’re not taking Clairvee. Multiple clinical trials demonstrate that just one oral capsule of Clairvee per day for 15 days maintains a balanced vaginal microbiome and provides month-long protection. To experience best results over the long-term and maintain a balanced, healthy vaginal microbiome, Clairvee should be taken consistently each month.

Does Clairvee have any side effects?

Across four randomized, double-blinded, placebo controlled clinical studies, women on Clairvee reported no side effects or adverse events.

The probiotic strains in Clairvee have been designated GRAS, or Generally Recognized As Safe, by the FDA, meaning that there is a consensus of expert opinion that the strains are safe for their intended use

How do I take Clairvee?

Clairvee is a once daily oral capsule that only needs to be taken for 15 consecutive days each month, given its uniquely powerful formulation. The remaining days are ‘off’ until next month. Probiotic protection continues to increase even on the days you’re not taking Clairvee. Just one oral capsule of Clairvee per day for 15 days maintains a balanced vaginal microbiome and provides month-long protection.

A 15-day supply of Clairvee is shipped at the same time every month to make it easy for you to incorporate Clairvee into your routine. Women should continue using Clairvee each month for as long as they want to maintain a healthy vaginal microbiome and prevent symptoms of vaginal imbalance. Please note that Clairvee should be taken orally and not inserted into the vagina.

Can I take this with other supplements?

Yes, Clairvee is not known to negatively interact with other supplements. Consumers however should be mindful of their folic acid intake as Clairvee contains folic acid at the recommended daily value (DV) of 400 mcg. It is recommended that women consume folic acid within the range of 400 mcg to 1mg.

Can I use Clairvee if I’m lactose intolerant?

One ingredient in Clairvee, Lactoferrin, is derived from milk. Individuals with lactose intolerance concerns and severe milk allergies should speak to their healthcare practitioner before taking Clairvee.

Does Clairvee need to be refrigerated?

No, Clairvee does not need to be refrigerated. Probiotics are normally suggested to be refrigerated because in higher temperature conditions, probiotics can become hydrated. Once hydrated, probiotics become active and start working inside the capsule, and not in your body where they were designed to work. However, Clairvee was specifically formulated with probiotic strains that have been scientifically shown to be stable at room temperature for long periods of time. These shelf-stable probiotics do not require refrigeration because they are created in a way that protects them from becoming activated until they are in the body. Moreover, the Clairvee Capsule™ Technology further protects the probiotics from moisture, allowing for targeted delivery of the living probiotic strains to the body.

For added protection, Clairvee is also bottled in double-walled, moisture-tight containers designed specifically for probiotics that provide unparalleled protection and ensure stability and reliability.

Can I use Clairvee while menstruating?

Yes, Clairvee can be used while menstruating. While the 15-day supplementation cycle can begin anytime during the month, it is recommended to begin taking Clairvee the same time each month. For best results, start your Clairvee 15-day supply on the first day of menses.

What can I do if I am also experiencing vaginal discomfort, itching, and painful sex?

Vaginal itching and discomfort can stem from multiple aspects of a woman's health, one cause can be an imbalanced vaginal microbiome, which Clairvee can help relieve; another cause is vaginal atrophy brought on by perimenopause and menopause. If you suffer from both symptoms of an imbalanced vaginal microbiome and vaginal atrophy, then we recommend using Clairvee and Revaree together. Learn more here.

Is Clairvee approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration)?

Clairvee is a dietary supplement, and the FDA does not approve dietary supplements. However, under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DHSEA), the FDA regulates dietary supplements under a different set of regulations than those covering “conventional” foods and drug products.

That's why Bonafide women love power couple Clairvee and Revaree. Revaree is a vaginal insert made of hyaluronic acid – the molecule naturally produced throughout the body that retains up to 1,000 times its weight in moisture and restores thinning tissue for good, so you can enjoy sex even more and stop constantly reapplying lubricant.
