VagiVital Vaginal Health Test Overview
The VagiVital VS Vaginal Health Test is an over-the-counter, visually read vaginal-acidity test for women of menstruating age who have symptoms that may be associated with a vaginal infection. These symptoms may include itching, irritation, burning or discharge that is excessive or has an unusual color or odor.
The test swab changes color when vaginal discharge has abnormal acidity. It may help indicate whether symptoms require follow-up with a healthcare provider, but it does not identify a specific vaginal infection and must not be used to diagnose a sexually transmitted infection.

When the Test May Be Used
The test is intended for women of menstruating age who have symptoms that may be associated with a vaginal infection, including vaginal itching, irritation or burning, or discharge that is excessive or has an unusual color or odor compared with usual discharge.
How to Perform the Test
Wash and dry your hands: Make sure you are completely dry before beginning the test.
Open one test: Remove the swab from its foil pouch and do not use it if the pouch or device is damaged. Do not allow the yellow tip to touch anything.
Insert the swab: Hold the swab by the handle, separate the outer vaginal skin and insert the yellow tip approximately 2 inches into the mid-vagina until your fingers reach the outer skin.
Collect the specimen: Rotate the swab several times without touching the vaginal entrance.
Withdraw and inspect: Remove the swab without touching the tip to anything and confirm that a visible amount of secretion was collected.
Read the result: Wait 10 seconds and inspect the yellow tip for a blue or green color change.
This procedure summary does not replace the package insert. Read the complete instructions, conditions and limitations before use. If you are unsure that a visible amount of vaginal discharge was collected, repeat the sampling with a new test. If blood appears on the swab, disregard the result.
How to Read the Result
| Result | Swab-Tip Appearance | What It Means |
|---|---|---|
| Abnormal acidity detected | Any part of the yellow tip is stained blue or green | Vaginal acidity is abnormal and a vaginal infection may be present; consult a healthcare provider and do not self-treat |
| Normal acidity detected | The entire tip remains yellow | Vaginal acidity is normal; symptoms may still require evaluation because normal acidity does not exclude every infection |
| Result to disregard | Blood appears on the swab | Do not interpret the test result |
Clinical Study Performance
| Study Measure | Result Reported in the Insert |
|---|---|
| Sensitivity for abnormal vaginal acidity | 86.32% |
| Specificity for normal vaginal acidity | 93.43% |
These figures are study-specific sensitivity and specificity values for detecting abnormal or normal vaginal acidity; they are not a blanket accuracy percentage and do not describe the test’s ability to diagnose a specific infection.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the VagiVital Vaginal Health Test measure?
It indicates whether vaginal discharge has normal or abnormal acidity. The swab’s color response reflects vaginal pH and buffering characteristics, but it does not identify a specific infection.
Is VagiVital an over-the-counter home test?
Yes. The exact product packaging and package insert identify it as an over-the-counter home test for women of menstruating age with specified vaginal symptoms.
How quickly can I read the result?
Wait 10 seconds after collecting the specimen, then check the yellow swab tip for a blue or green color change.
Does an abnormal-acidity result diagnose bacterial vaginosis?
No. Abnormal acidity may accompany bacterial, parasitic or noninfectious conditions, and the test does not identify a specific cause. Discuss abnormal results and symptoms with a healthcare provider.
Does a normal-acidity result rule out an infection?
No. If the tip remains yellow, vaginal acidity is normal, but symptoms may still be caused by a condition such as a yeast infection. Seek medical advice for a first suspected yeast infection, persistent symptoms or uncertainty about treatment.
Can this test detect sexually transmitted infections?
No. Do not use it to test for HIV, chlamydia, herpes, gonorrhea, syphilis or any other sexually transmitted infection.
Can the test be used during pregnancy?
Consult a healthcare provider before use during pregnancy. Interpretation requires professional knowledge, and a blue or green result during pregnancy may indicate an amniotic-fluid leak that requires prompt medical follow-up.
How many tests are included?
Each VagiVital VS kit contains two single-use vaginal health tests.

Abnormal vaginal acidity can have more than one cause and this test does not diagnose bacterial vaginosis. For general information about BV, symptoms and when to seek care, review the CDC resource.
