TheroNomic Tribiotic Ova-All Care, a dietary supplement we stock at the clinic.
yào shí tóng yuán · food and medicine share one source
We stock exactly one supplement, and this page is the whole of it, ingredient list included. There is no shop here and nothing to add to a basket. If you want it, you ask us in the room or on WhatsApp, and we would rather you asked before you bought.
It is not a herbal formula and it does not stand in for one. A formula is written for your case and rewritten as the case changes, sometimes fortnightly. A bottle is the same bottle for everybody who buys it, which is both the point of it and the limit of it.
TheroNomic® Tribiotic™ Ova-All Care
Sixty hard capsules in amber glass, with a plum label. The glass is not decoration. The pack material says the glass bottle is what preserves the probiotic activity, and the amber keeps the light off it, which is also why the storage line asks for somewhere cool and dry rather than a windowsill.
It is a dietary supplement, not a medicine. The Australian listing number, AUST L 473206, is printed on the label itself, and the three lines below are the claims the product carries on that listing. They are the only benefit wording on this page, and they are the product's claims rather than promises we are making on top of them.
Listed claim. "Maintains healthy vaginal flora"
Listed claim. "Reduces menstrual cycle irregularity and menstrual spasms"
Listed claim. "Traditionally used in Chinese medicine to support ovarian health"
Not for pregnancy or nursing. Not for under 18s either. Full list further down and we will say it again.
How the formula is put together
Three components rather than one. A prebiotic is the material the bacteria feed on, the probiotic is the live cultures themselves, and the postbiotic is what those cultures produce. That is where the word tribiotic on the label comes from, and it is why the strain list further down runs to ten entries instead of one.
Cinnamomum cassia stem bark extract at 100 mg per capsule, with myo-inositol at 75 mg per capsule. Both are printed on the pack at fixed doses and both are reproduced below with the milligrams left on. We are listing what is in the bottle rather than explaining a mechanism, because the mechanism is not ours to promise.
These are components, not results, and none of them is being offered here as the reason for anything. The only benefit wording anyone should quote from this page, us included, is the three listed claims above, in the words they are listed in.
Why it comes as three parts
Non-digestible fibres that are not there for you, they are there for the bacteria. Inulin, fructooligosaccharides and resistant starch pass through undigested, reach the colon, and selectively feed Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus. On this label that part is the FOS at 50 mg a capsule and the gold kiwifruit powder.
The live cultures themselves, eight named strains here. The maker’s point is that cultures on their own rarely settle: without the right environment many strains do not survive stomach acid or colonise the gut at all, which is why the other two parts sit in the same capsule rather than being sold separately.
This is the manufacturer’s account of why the three parts are formulated together, in their words rather than ours, and it describes the formula rather than what it will do for you. The only benefit wording on this page is still the three listed claims above, in the words they are listed in.

UBLA-34 and UBLR-58 are named strains rather than a genus printed on a label. A named strain can be traced back to the batch it came from, which is the difference between knowing what is in a capsule and knowing roughly what family it belongs to.
Each one named and coded on the label, so it can be traced to a batch
The pack material puts it plainly: the glass bottle preserves the probiotic activity, and the amber keeps the light out. Keep it somewhere cool and dry below 25°C, cap closed, and nowhere near the kettle or the window.
One bottle, at the two a day the label recommends
The same bottle for everybody is the one thing a formula written for you is not.
What it cannot do
Change with you, or answer a question you have not asked yet
What we would rather
That you came in first, so we know what else you are taking
What it never replaces
Your doctor, your obstetrician, or your fertility clinic
Worth reading first
This is the reason it is on the shelf at all. The product is listed with the claim that it "reduces menstrual cycle irregularity and menstrual spasms", and that sentence is the whole of what we will say about it. If your cycle has changed suddenly, that is a conversation in the room first.
Ask us about it
Bring it up before you start. We check the supplement against what we have prescribed you, the same way we check anything else you take, and sometimes the answer is not yet rather than no.
Ask us about it
Read this one as a caution rather than an offer. Ask your fertility clinic before you add anything at all, supplements included, and if they would rather you did not take it, we defer to them without argument.
Ask us about it
The product is listed with the claim that it "maintains healthy vaginal flora". That is the claim as written, and there is nothing further to it. Anything that is itching, burning or changing in a way that worries you belongs with a doctor, not with a supplement.
Ask us about it
Before you buy it
Most of this website is about pregnancy and the months after it, so it is worth saying plainly that this bottle is the one thing here that is not for that. Do not take it while pregnant. Do not take it while nursing. If you are trying to conceive and you become pregnant, stop taking it and tell us.
It is also not for under 18s, and not for anyone allergic to any ingredient in the list above, which is why the list is on this page in full. Anyone with a serious or acute condition should ask their doctor before starting it rather than after.
Taking it

存放
A cool, dry place with the cap closed. The amber glass is doing a job here, so there is no need for the fridge and no need to decant it into anything else.

Listings and paperwork
AUST L 473206, the listing number printed on the label, which you can read off the bottle yourself. Listed is not the same as registered. It means the product is entered on the Australian register rather than assessed there for effect, and it is worth knowing the difference.
New Zealand patent NZ732197A, and twelve patents approved. This is a dietary supplement rather than a medicine, and the three claims on this page are the ones the product is listed with, not ones we have added. It does not replace medical care, and anything that needs a doctor still needs a doctor.
The awkward ones
No. It is a dietary supplement rather than a medicine, and the three claims on this page are the ones the product is listed with, not ones we have added. It does not replace medical care, and anything that needs a doctor still needs a doctor.
No. It is not suitable during pregnancy or while nursing, and that is the case whatever else you are taking. It is also not for under 18s. If you are trying to conceive and you become pregnant, stop taking it and tell us at the next visit or before it.
Bring the list and we will check it. Prescription medication, supplements, and anything within a fertility protocol, boxes or photographs either way. Sometimes the answer is not yet rather than no, usually because of where you are in a cycle or a course of herbs.
Results vary by individual, and by age, fitness level and health conditions. The material advises taking it consistently for four to six months for stable effects. We would rather say that than invent a number, and if anyone gives you a firmer one you should ask them where it came from.
We would rather you came in first, so that we know what else you are taking before you add anything to it. Price is something we will tell you in the room or on WhatsApp rather than on a page.
Yes, once it is open. Sealed, it wants a cool dry place below 25°C; the carton then says to refrigerate after opening. Keep it in the bottle it came in either way, because the pack material says the glass is what preserves the probiotic activity and the amber keeps light off the capsules.
No, and this one is on the carton rather than being our preference: heat can damage probiotics, so it says not to take the capsules with hot drinks. Water at room temperature, with a meal, is what we would suggest.
The carton says not to take it while on warfarin therapy without medical advice, and to consult your healthcare professional if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. That is why we ask for a full list of what you are already on before you add anything, prescription or otherwise.
It is halal certified. The full ingredient list is further up this page, in full, with the strain codes and the milligrams, precisely so that you can check it against anything you react to. If something does not agree with you, stop taking it and tell us.
