“I have recommended the Balance Supplement Kit to every woman of reproductive age who will listen to me long enough!
I come from a family with strong ties to the medical and pharmaceutical world, so I've never been one to put much stock into anything that didn't come with a prescription. As far as I was concerned, supplements were basically placebos. From about age 20 to 32, when I found Alisa Vitti's book, I spent thousands of dollars and countless hours with different doctors trying to figure out what was going on with my body. I had painful adult acne, my digestion and bloating was an every-day problem, I had unpredictable periods (everything from no bleeding for 2 years to bleeding/spotting every other week for 7-9 days at a time), birth control caused depression, my cramps were pretty bad, and I was tired all the time. When I was 24, one Reproductive Endocrinologist finally realized that I had PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) after telling me for months that I didn't fit the profile of someone with PCOS. Since then, I've tried different treatments with various Reproductive Endocrinology experts on both the east and west coasts, but not only were my symptoms still ruling the roost, but the side effects of the drugs I tried were intolerable!
My sister-in-law shared with me Alisa's interview on the Organic Olivia podcast last year. After listening, I got her book, In The Flo, and it gave me some hope for the first time in more than ten years of struggle. I was taking spironolactone for my acne (it was effective) and was just about to start a new hormonal treatment with my doctor to target the constant bleeding, but I ended up telling her I wanted to take a break for a few months and try Alisa's supplements. I figured I didn't have a whole lot to lose. If it didn't work (like I cynically suspected), I would just do what my doctor suggested with shots and an oral drug.
Mind you, at that time I was still bleeding for approximately 7-9 days every other week, and no one had figured out why. No one could make it stop. Within the first 30 days after starting the Balance Supplement regimen, I noticed a positive difference. I had an isolated, 6-day period! My bleeding started to get more "regular," my bloating was down, and I was less fatigued. I kept at the supplements and continued to get more regular. No spotting. I get one period every 28 days, and they only last around four or five days now.
Two or three months in to starting the regimen, I tried going off of my spironolactone (for acne). If I had one tiny breakout, I was going to start taking spironolactone again immediately. That was my plan. I waited and waited. It's been nine months, and I still haven't had a breakout. NO PIMPLES!
I am prescription drug-free, and I experience no extra bleeding, acne, cramps, bloating or unusual fatigue. My bathroom used to look like a pharmacy, but now it looks like a Flo advertisement!
Note: This was my personal experience. I would never recommend someone go against their medical professional's advice. In my case, I consulted my doctor, and she agreed that there would be no harm done if I wanted to try the Balance Supplements.”
“So far I've not had any of the usual monthly issues I face, like bloating, cravings, cramping a week before my period. This is only my first month and my period hasn't arrived yet, but I'm thinking that these supplements are going to make a world of difference for me!”
“I’m 14 days in to hopefully getting my hormones balanced. Looking forward to using them to really give my body what it needs to function properly from the inside out!”
“I can feel a slight difference in energy on the supplements (although it’s never been low it’s higher now) and I have zero symptoms during my luteal phase, which was my challenging phase. I’ve made some lifestyle changes however the supplements feel like a bonus addition. Overall I feel less depleted by the end of the day.”
“My sister recommended this product to me! To hear her talk it is life saving! I have to say after using it, it has REALLY helped my hormonal balance. I was constantly fatigued and foggy headed before using this product and I have noticed a marked improvement over the last 3 months of taking it!”
