Vaginal suppositories like The Assassin™ are used to help treat and prevent recurrent bacterial vaginosis (BV), yeast infections (thrush), and vaginal pH imbalances. They work by restoring the vaginal environment to a level where harmful bacteria and yeast physically can't thrive — fast, targeted, and without the systemic effects of oral antibiotics.

BV occurs when harmful bacteria overgrow and disrupt the natural vaginal balance. The Assassin™ works by rapidly lowering vaginal pH to a level that inhibits these bacteria, while also breaking down the protective biofilm they hide behind — which is why standard antibiotics alone often fail to clear recurrent cases.

Yes. The Assassin™ is effective against both common and resistant strains of Candida, including Candida glabrata — a strain that often doesn't respond to standard antifungal treatments. A systematic review across clinical studies found an average 76% mycological cure rate with the active in vaginal suppositories of this type.

A healthy vaginal pH sits between 3.8 and 4.5. BV, yeast overgrowth, intimacy, menstruation, and antibiotics can all push pH higher, creating an environment where harmful organisms thrive. The Assassin™ delivers its clinically formulated active directly to the vaginal environment, bringing pH back into the slightly acidic range where good bacteria thrive and bad bacteria can't.

Recurrence is one of the most frustrating parts of vaginal health issues. Common triggers include:

• Antibiotic use (which kills good bacteria alongside bad)
• Hormonal shifts (menstruation, contraceptives, pregnancy)
• Intimacy (new partners, unprotected intimacy, semen raising pH)
• Stress, diet, and lifestyle factors
• Tight or non-breathable clothing

This is where the Peachy Fresh 2-week V Reset comes in — The Assassin™ nightly for 7 nights (Week 1) resets the environment, then The Daily Slay™ nightly for 7 nights (Week 2) restores your protective Lactobacillus. After that, 2-3× weekly maintenance keeps it balanced.

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is caused by an overgrowth of harmful bacteria. Symptoms typically include a thin, greyish-white discharge with a fishy odour, especially after intimacy.

Yeast infections (thrush) are caused by an overgrowth of Candida. Symptoms typically include thick white discharge (cottage-cheese-like), itching, redness, and burning.

The Assassin™ addresses both — its active works against both bacterial overgrowth and Candida.

Insert one capsule directly into the vagina before bed. Let it dissolve overnight — no applicator needed, no complicated routine. For active symptoms, use one capsule nightly for 7–14 days. For prevention (e.g. after intimacy or during your period), use as needed. Always wash your hands before insertion and wear a panty liner overnight as some discharge is normal as the capsule dissolves.

Many women notice a significant difference within 1–3 days — particularly with odour and discharge. For recurrent or resistant infections, a full 7–14 day course is recommended for lasting results. The Assassin™ is designed for fast, targeted relief, but consistency is key for long-term resolution.

For active BV or yeast symptoms: one capsule nightly for 7–14 consecutive days. For maintenance or prevention: 2–3 times per week, or as directed by your healthcare provider. If symptoms persist beyond 14 days, consult your doctor — persistent symptoms may indicate an underlying condition that requires further investigation.

Yes, however many women prefer to pause during their heaviest flow days, as menstrual blood can dilute the suppository and reduce its effectiveness. Light flow days and the days immediately after your period ends are actually an ideal time to use The Assassin™, since menstruation can disrupt vaginal pH and create the conditions for recurrence.

Yes. Intimacy — particularly unprotected — can temporarily raise vaginal pH due to the alkaline nature of semen. Many women use the active after being intimate as a preventative measure to restore pH balance before harmful bacteria have a chance to overgrow. Insert one capsule before bed and let it dissolve overnight.

Yes, when used as directed for intravaginal use. The clinically formulated active in The Assassin™ has over 150 years of documented clinical use and is included in both UK and US national clinical guidelines for the treatment of recurrent vaginal infections. The Assassin™ is manufactured to BRCGS and NSF certified standards. Not for oral use, and not for use during pregnancy.

We recommend waiting at least 24 hours after your last dose before vaginal intercourse. This allows the capsule to fully dissolve and your vaginal environment to stabilise. Oral contact should be avoided while using any vaginal suppository. If you're using The Assassin™ as a post-intimacy preventative, simply wait until your next dose is due before being intimate again.

No. The Assassin™ should not be used during pregnancy or if you suspect you may be pregnant. If you are breastfeeding, consult your healthcare provider before use. This is a standard precaution for all vaginal suppositories of this type.

Yes, this is completely normal. As the capsule dissolves overnight, you may notice a watery or slightly gritty discharge the following morning. This is simply the capsule contents being naturally expelled. A panty liner the morning after is all you need. The discharge is not a sign that the product isn't working — it's a sign that it is.

If you've never been diagnosed with BV or a yeast infection before, we recommend seeing your GP or gynaecologist first to confirm the diagnosis — symptoms can overlap with other conditions that require different treatment. If you have a confirmed diagnosis of recurrent BV or thrush and your doctor hasn't been able to provide lasting relief, The Assassin™ is a clinically supported option you can use at home.

The Assassin™ contains a single pharmaceutical-grade active at clinical dosage — nothing added, nothing diluted. Most competing products use fillers, binders, or gelatin capsules. Ours is vegan, single-ingredient, and manufactured to BRCGS + NSF certified standards. We're also Australian-owned and direct-to-consumer — no markup, no middleman.

No. The Assassin™ is available without a prescription in Australia. You can purchase directly from our website with delivery Australia-wide. While no prescription is required, we always recommend consulting your GP if this is your first time experiencing these symptoms or if recurring issues persist beyond a 14-day course.
