We study the Einstein-Maxwell theory in five dimensions coupled to matter in two distinct ways. In the first we reduce the Lagrangian to an effective four-dimension one and then we couple it to matter; in the second, we introduce matter directly in the original five-dimensional theory. In both cases we use a non trivial configuration for the Maxwell potential. We find non singular solutions which present a repulsive gravitational phase. When this phase is absent, the initial singularity is unavoidable.
