Product Information

Regelle ® is a long lasting vaginal moisturiser intended for the symptomatic relief of vaginal atrophy, dryness, itching, irritation and discomfort. Regelle ® is so safe patients can use it confidently for years, even decades, and with regular use some women may find that fewer applications are needed, because the dryness reduces. A recent survey of 500 women in Ireland reported 7 out of 10 experience the painful debilitating effects of vaginal dryness at some stage. However, 59% of sufferers do not seek help from their GP or healthcare professional. Almost 20%, quoted embarrassment as a factor in not seeking help, and a further 13% assumed their condition would go away.

One application (2.5 g) to be inserted into the vagina every three days, preferably in the morning. It is estimated that up to 40% of your post-menopausal patients may need your advice but are simply too embarrassed to ask. Furthermore, even if you are prescribing HRT to your patients, it is shown that 25% of menopausal women who take hormone replacement therapy continue to present with the signs and symptoms of vaginal atrophy. 1 Can be use with HRT: Regelle is also suitable for use by patients taking systemic Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Regelle is vaginal moisturiser, clinically proven to provide immediate relief from dryness and discomfort. Furthermore, polycarbophil and carbopol are substances with a buffering action and their use in women experiencing menopause either naturally or as a result of surgery has led to a correction of the vaginal pH values comparable to those obtained with hormone replacement therapy 4.

Regelle coats the entire vaginal passage and provides immediate relief to dry cells. Once in place, Regelle delivers continuous moisture for up to 3 days per single application (as the purified water is gradually released from the polycarbophil, dry tissues are rehydrated). Dry cells are then shed naturally, leaving healthier and more supple skin beneath. Regelle ® works by lining the inside of the vagina, providing moisturisation, lubrication and comfort 1. Regelle, Long lasting vaginal moisturiser is clinically proven to provide immediate relief from the discomfort associated with vaginal dryness. Unlike short acting lubricants, Regelle soothes by coating the entire vaginal passage resulting in immediate relief with each application lasting up to three days.

Our research shows that intimate dryness can be an issue for many women at a number of ‘hormonal & life-stage moments’ during their lives – not exclusively during the menopause. Indeed, many women report suffering dryness when taking oral contraceptives, during periods of stress, during medical treatments such as chemotherapy and even during breastfeeding. In a comparative study by Nachtigall et al (1994) of a polycarbophil gel versus local oestrogen in menopausal women, a statistically significant return of vaginal moisture and vaginal fluid volume was shown by week 4 in both groups. Vaginal elasticity also increased in both groups. No serious side effects were reported. The result indicated that the bioadhesive vaginal moisturiser was a safe and effective alternative to oestrogen vaginal creams, with both therapies exhibiting statistically significant increases in vaginal moisture, vaginal fluid, and vaginal elasticity with a return of the premenopausal pH state.
