“I didn’t care if I ever had sex again.”

Cassie has a long history of hormonal sensitivity, especially PMS. She also had her tubes tied in her 20’s and suffered some hot flashes afterwards. At 29, she faced the challenge of cervical cancer. Fortunately she was cured with only a minor cervical surgery and her uterus and ovaries remained intact.

Not surprisingly, Cassie has always worked hard to take care of herself, and felt she was doing a good job. Her menstrual cycles were normal. She was fit and healthy. She was happily married and enjoyed a strong sex drive.

Perhaps that’s why Cassie was taken aback when she began to develop severe symptoms of hormonal imbalance. Her PMS grew more intense, particularly her mood swings and irritability, lasting a full two weeks with each menstrual period. Although her periods remained regular, she began to realize she was experiencing the onset of menopause.

Much to her husband’s dismay, Cassie felt a complete loss of libido. “I didn’t care if I ever had sex again,” she told us. After a period of denial, she knew she needed help. Her sister referred her to our website. She read page after page about hormonal imbalance and its role in her health. Figuring she had nothing to lose, she decided to give it a try.

After just two months on her Personal Program for Hormonal Imbalance, Cassie was amazed to realize that after 20 years, her hot flashes were gone. She still has a little PMS, but it only lasts for two days before her period. Her husband was quick to notice the changes.

Cassie said, “I’m feeling a little more pizzazz again — my husband is so happy!” She also reported that sex was more appealing and enjoyable. She is so happy to be enjoying this part of her relationship again.
