Menopause/PMS Stories

My story is rather personal but I would like to share it.  In my past relationship, I went through a period of 6 months where I could not have sex. It started out as what I thought was a simple irritation inside of my vagina, and then developed into what I thought was just a really bad yeast infection, and after treating it accordingly for a couple of weeks, and nothing happened, I got a little nervous.

So, I went to a holistic gynecologist, she could find nothing wrong. I took a series of potent anti-fungal, anti-bacterial herbs, and nothing helped.  So I went to a regular western gynecologist, and he diagnosed me with some rare condition, gave me a steroid cream, and told me if that didn't work I would have to have surgery! That scared me enough to try the cream (something I would never do, being the naturalist that I am), and it just made everything worse.  At the advice of my best friend who is also a midwife, I soaked in sitz baths (what a hilarious production that was!! I can laugh at it now.) and used fresh aloe vera gel to soothe my irritated skin.

After about six months of this challenging, painful and stressful experience, Goji Juice was brought into my life, give thanks!

I had been eating goji berries and knew of the health benefits, but I was not consciously drinking goji juice to heal my vaginal condition. After about 2 weeks drinking the juice, I noticed a shift in my energy, sex drive, and the pain was beginning to subside.  After about 1 month, the pain was dramatically decreased, and after about 2 months, totally gone!  What a relief, I am so grateful for the difference goji juice has made in my life, on so many levels!  I have been drinking goji juice consistently for almost two years, have had no problems since then!

For most of my life I have had problems with menstrual cramps and lower back aches. In 1994 I ruptured two discs in my lower back.  They were healed up and then ruptured again in 2002.  Since then, the one week of the month my period comes I have so much lower back pain I could hardly walk. I would take major amount of NSAIDS to get a little relief.  I started drinking Goji juice 4 weeks ago, and after the third week my period came and I had only a few cramps and very little back ache.  A have also had problems with diarrhea since I had my gallbladder out 5 years ago and Goji juice cleared that up after the first week. Also a friend recently told me that I looked younger, the wrinkles on my face are going away, at 47 that is a good thing to hear. Praise the Lord! Goji is answered prayer.

I am so grateful for goji juice. I used to get headaches at least 3 or 4 days every week but within days of drinking goji the headaches were gone.

I have arthritis in my knees enough that I could not bend down without extending my right leg to the side because it would not bend that far, now I can do deep knee bends.

I'm 53 and was having night sweats and hot flashes, within 2 days, the night sweats stopped and the hot flashes kept getting less intense and after 2 months they were gone too.

I have taken OTC allergy medicine for years, all year long, now I take none. I really do love Goji juice.

I started drinking Goji juice on December 23, 2005. It didn't take long to feel the benefits of Goji juice. Almost immediately, I experienced a sense of well being. For the first time in years, I am remembering my dreams. They are crystal clear and immensely happy dreams.

I purposefully didn't renew a prescription for tennis elbow, just to see what would happen. Before drinking Goji juice, there were days when I couldn't raise my right arm above my head without experiencing a lot of pain. Now, after being on the Goji juice just six weeks, the pain is entirely gone.

In the past, I have suffered from menopausal night sweats and hot flashes. Nine months ago, a doctor in Denver suggested bio-identical hormones and prescribed six different medications. After being on the medications for months, I didn't notice an improvement.

Six weeks ago I stopped taking the medications and starting drinking Goji juice. I am happy to say that I am now free of night sweats and hot flashes.

Needless to say, I am thrilled to be off all medications. My memory is sharper and I feel like a young girl again. Every day just keeps getting better and better!  Go Goji juice!!!

She was so very happy! Now that she is on her second bottle of Goji juice and she is looking forward to child bearing. She hugged the Goji juice bottle to her breast and said, "my Goji juice".

I’m 50 and proud of it, but like a lot of my peers, hot flushes and estrogen headaches started to plague my life about 10 months ago. My doctor [very smart man] told me about Goji juice. He had just come back form the US and some of his colleagues were raving about it. He said he had heard it was good for menopause.  Now nine months later, this is my result.

Within 4 to 5 days, I slept like a teenager. Within 7 days, I had great relief from the menopause symptoms and wit in 6 weeks, all symptoms were gone.

I don’t know when my gums stopped bleeding but they have after many years.

The bonus is that after 7 months, I no longer have urinary tract infections.  This is something that has plagued me for nearly 30 years. After almost 30 years of taking antibiotics for my urinary tract infections, my whole body is riddled with Candida [yeast infection] and I regularly [monthly ] had an attack of thrush. I have only had one in 6 months since drinking Goji juice.  Do I love Goji juice? You bet!

I was experiencing unbelievable hot flashes and, on the advice of my sister, I decided to try Goji juice. I immediately felt a difference. My hot flashes just kept diminishing, and today after drinking the product for three months I have not had one hot flash in five weeks. It's truly amazing. I also have never slept better in my entire married life. I am in such a deep sleep that I don't wake up anymore hearing my husband snoring. Now that's truly a miracle!

What a relief to not have to worry about hot flashes ever again. I made the mistake of running out of goji and the flashes returned. Ladies (and your husbands), always have extra goji on hand and drink it every day.

Just over a year ago at the age of 50, I began having night sweats and hot flashes. I had no energy and my sexual desire went to null. I began drinking four ounces of goji in March of this year. My energy level increased immediately and after two months, all the other signs of menopause were completely gone! I never have hot flashes at all. This is absolutely wonderful! Thanks, goji.

Connie, West Virginia

I have never felt as good as I do now after finding the miracle goji! I am menopausal and this has saved my life! No more hot flashes or mood swings. I am loving each day!

Nancy, Massachusetts

No more hot flashes! All those pre-menopausal symptoms are gone in just two months after drinking goji. This is wonderful! I am making sure my whole family consistently takes it. There are so many benefits, including increased alertness and mental clarity. This is great for my high school and college kids! Thanks!

I am entering menopause so I had been suffering with hot flashes so bad that when it was about 18 degrees outside this past winter, I had my window open and my head out so I could feel a little cool, but since taking goji, I haven’t had any more problems with hot flashes! I can say that I definitely have more energy during the day; I sleep much better at night. It has also helped me with my mood swings associated with premenopause and believe me, my husband is almost happier about that than I am! Also I’ve lost 2 inches off my waistline and counting, without dieting! (I had gained about 10 extra pounds after getting married).
