“I’m a true believer!”

A 39-year-old in perimenopause — with chronic migraines and UTI’s — joyfully reports that both problems have disappeared.

Glenda was just 39 when she discovered the Personal Program. Though very young, she suffered many of the classic symptoms of perimenopause — insomnia, fatigue, vaginal dryness, loss of sexual desire, and joint stiffness.

But Glenda also complained of two other issues that are less common — chronic migraines that followed her menstrual cycle, and frequent urinary tract infections (UTI’s).

The migraines were especially problematic, as they were very severe and had afflicted her every single month for two and a half years. Besides the agony, they made her miss work almost monthly. She had tried everything her doctors had recommended and never found any relief.

Glenda was elated when we spoke with her about six weeks into her Program. Incredibly, after a migraine every month for years, in her first menstrual cycle after joining the Program she didn’t have one!

We spoke with her again recently, nine months into the Program. “I’m doing great!” she exclaimed. She reported that she hasn’t had a single migraine or UTI since starting her Program. She understands now the negative impact her poor nutrition and diet and lack of endocrine support had on her hormonal balance, and the many ways that imbalance manifested itself.

“I’m a true believer,” she said, and reported she’s telling her doctor, “No more prescriptions.” She notes that her progress is steady — all her other symptoms are improving, too. She’s even begun to lose weight. “I’m in heaven!” she says. And no wonder.
