“I have been taking the supplement for about 1.5 months and am still getting hormonal acne, my period is still heavy with extreme symptoms (cramps, nausea, fatigue).”
Sorry to hear that you're still feeling those symptoms. It sounds like your hormonal acne and extreme period symptoms might need more support than just the supplements, and given the severity, they can certainly take more time than a month to heal. While supplements are so powerful, they also are not the only thing necessary in some cases. Our Foundational Flo Protocol guides you through the necessary steps with your diet and lifestyle to support healing from the root cause, and our Flo Coaches can compliment that process with individualized support. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! We'd love to support you further on your healing journey.
“I’ve been using the Flo supplements for about 6 months and honestly I haven’t noticed a difference. After ready that it’s better to take them in the morning, I’ve started doing that to see if I feel or see a difference. So far, nothing yet.”
Depending on the severity of your symptoms and how long you've been experiencing them, you might require more support outside of just the supplements. Our Foundational Flo Protocol guides you through the necessary steps with your diet and lifestyle to support healing from the root cause, and our Flo Coaches can compliment that process with individualized support. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! We'd love to support you further on your healing journey.
“I thought the order status and shipping process was a little confusing. It was hard to tell when my order would ship. Also it would be nice if the pills were smaller especially the fish oil pill is massive. Some of the pills give me an upset stomach (I think the fish oil -and the detox one). But I do feel better taking them.”
“Since I started the Flo Kit Supplements; I dont know why but I feel a lot more cravings; I am craving chocolate more then ever; during my period I was more bloted than usual and having more cramps.... Not sure if it is just coincidence; but I would expect to have the opposite effects or being the same - I will give an opportunity and finalise the kit and then will see if it make sense for me to coninue with the supplements or not.... Thanks”
The increase in appetite can sometimes occur with the influx of B Vitamins, but it's often an early symptom that goes away. Feel free to send an update on how it's been going in month 2 and beyond!
“I started taking about a month ago. First, I was disappointed to see there is no calcium in the supplements. Second, although my period came sooner than my previous period- 35 days as opposed to 45 the month prior- my symptoms are bad. I have been pmsing for 2 weeks and now have very bad cramps (day 1 of period). I am willing to try for another month or two but I need to see improvement in mood symptoms and cramps to justify the subscription.”
Hi we hear your frustration and are glad you gave the supplements a chance! A 10-day change in your cycle length definitely seems like a huge improvement in regularity. As for the symptoms, keep us updated on how things progress. If you don't notice a change reach out so we can put you in touch with our Coaches to help troubleshoot!
“Unfortunately I have had increased irritability, breast tenderness and heavy/painful period since beginning the balance supplements. I am hoping maybe it's just my body adjusting and improvement will come? Confused.”
Sometimes symptoms do pop up whenever we make changes to our food or supplements, but a change in your period symptoms would need to have those changes in place for at least a full month. We are happy to offer you a consult with one of our FLO Coaches if you'd like more personalized guidance!
“Unfortunately, with the excess biotin and vitamin D it actually made my skin worse. Since I am very acne prone having those two supplements in excess made me break out heavily. I am now only taking the magnesium and omega 3 supplements from the group and my skin has cleared almost in a day.”
“I've been taking the supplements for over a month but they seem to have a had a negative effect on me. I did not get my period normally this month and the supplements make me feel pukish/acidic. I have discontinued them. They were also quite expensive.”
