I never gave up on homeopathy because it had helped me so much with every other ailment I had over the years. But after many years of trial and error, I realized that while my homeopath was searching for the right remedies, I should explore other healing modalities to see if they could help my symptoms. So, in the last few years of experiencing my symptoms, I have started tweaking my diet and made many nutritional changes. I experienced some positive changes in my PMS symptoms for sure, but my cramps still remained unchanged. I also tried other healing modalities, but nothing seemed to bring about change. When I finally felt like I had exhausted all my options, I came across menstrual coaching.

Looking back, I now understand that while I was using natural and holistic methods to heal myself, my mindset wasn’t always conducive to healing. I wasn’t in a state of patience, self-love, and mindfulness when my periods began. When dealing with other health symptoms, I was much more forgiving toward myself. But when it came to my cramps, they were simply too painful to think about, and many times I felt furious about having to experience them. This is where menstrual coaching fit into the puzzle: it provided me with the right mindset and all the information necessary for healing.

Once I embraced menstrual awareness practices, the right homeopathic remedies became obvious to me. Since I was already trained in homeopathy, I didn’t even need my homeopath’s help to prescribe these remedies - they were already in my cabinet, so I could take them immediately. At first, the intensity of my symptoms reduced by about 70%. In the following weeks, I increased the dose, and during my next period, I was able to experience something called "period bliss". Since then, my symptoms have gotten a little lighter with each cycle. As of today, I would say that my PMS, cramps, and energy levels are 90-95% better. I continue experimenting with remedies, dietary and self-care choices to keep improving my menstrual health.
