General FAQs

How can P.Happi® help me?

P.Happi® supports with microbiome related concerns. The serum can help with intimate dryness and sensitive skin. The serum has a barrier function, creating a protective shield from bacteria who are not part of your natural flora. The bacterium in P.Happi®, Bdellovibrio bacteriovorous, specifically fights gram-negative bacteria leaving the beneficial bacteria to flourish, more here.

P.Happi® is not a medicinal product or medical device. It is not intended to prevent, cure or treat any disease.

P.Happi® cannot fix mechanical or functional related problems such as prolapse or voiding issues however the barrier function can help to shield from bacteria building and causing discomfort.

Please speak to a doctor if you have any specific concerns.
How do I use P.Happi®?

With the bottle standing upright apply one pump to the vulva, labia and perineum area (front to back to avoid contamination). For optimal protection make part of your morning and evening routine.

When you first open and use the bottle you will need to pump a few times. This is due to the filling process. We like to avoid leaks when we're filling the bottles with 20g of P.Happi®!
When should I use P.Happi®?

We recommend you use P.Happi® daily to maintain protection.  Use during higher risk times when you are more sexually active, stressed or traveling a lot. For example periods of sexual activity or when traveling.
I forgot to apply the serum. What should I do?

Simply make a note on your calendar of the times or days when you forgot to apply the serum and continue applying it as usual from then on. You do not need to apply it multiple times to make up for a forgotten application.  Remember, P.Happi® is most effective when applied every morning and night.
I got my period. Should I continue applying the serum and testing my urine?

No problem! Continue applying the serum even when you have your period.

Everyone over the age of 18 who is not pregnant or breast feeding can use P.Happi®. Further studies are planned so that everyone can use it. P.Happi® is especially suitable for women who suffer from recurrent symptoms. 
Can pregnant women use P.Happi®?

We have not done studies with pregnant women yet and so we do not currently advise pregnant women to use P.Happi®.
Where can I buy P.Happi®?

How long does it take to feel an improvement?

While some users notice the effects right away it can differ from person to person.

As the microbiome is complex, the timing can vary and isn't always guaranteed. 

P.Happi® and Menopause

Is P.Happi® good for menopause?

P.Happi® is considered a good product to support with menopause. It has a dual functionality that 1) helps to support the microbiome barrier with Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus and 2) moisturise and protect the intimate area from dryness and associated risks.

The serum has been tested by women in their peri- and post menopausal stage who reported a positive impact on their menopause-related symptoms. For example 94% felt a relief in intimate dryness.

It is also non hormonal and so will be great as non-hormonal support and does not contain any fragrances or preservatives.
Can I still use P.Happi® If I am using HRT?

Yes you can! P.Happi® is a non-hormonal serum meaning you are able to use it together with hormone based treatments and can be a great addition.

If you have any specific questions about the application please reach out. 
Can I use P.Happi® with other topical applications?

Yes you can use P.Happi® together with your usual topical products. To get the best out of both we recommend to apply them at different times. We recommend a minimum of two hours apart but it depends on the absorption profile of the specific product. When in doubt, please send an email or ask your healthcare professional. 
Menopause has impacted my sex life. Can P.Happi® help?

Possibly however this depends on the reason your sex life has been impacted. During testing women have reported that they felt more confident in the bedroom whilst using P.Happi® with 94% reporting intimate dryness relief and 74% reporting enhanced intimate microbiome protection.

We have many stories mentioning the impact P.Happi® has had on customers' sex life here.

What does P.Happi® smell like?

We use silicones in our product to create the stability and consistency of the serum that you love! Silicones have been proven to be safe for use in care products for decades.

There isn’t currently an alternative that we can use in place of silicones that will provide the same level of functionality, quality and safety we want. We will however continue to research and develop our products ensuring the quality of our ingredients. Please consult a doctor if you have a specific allergy to silicones.
