The cream really helped

by Kathy
(USA)

Put up with increased bleeding for about 3yrs decided to go to OBGYN. They suggested Mirena for heavy bleeding and cramping, despite the med/Lg sized fibroids. The bleeding got worse and on the 6th month it was rejected. This when I came across Natpro and figured why not. I use a large dose and so far it has lessened the heavy bleeding by 1/3 and the cramps are manageable. I am almost back to my normal. Thank You very much!!!!!!!

Hi Kathy I'm delighted to hear this! I'm also delighted the Mirena was rejected, you might like to read these comments here. We do have a page on Fibroids, they're caused by oxidative stress. Progesterone does help, but large amounts of other antioxidants are needed too. The most important being NAC (N-acetyl cysteine) and vitamin D, see here, here, here, here and here. Please have a vitamin D test done. For more info on vitamin D levels, test kits etc see the Vitamin D Council, GrassrootsHealth, Birmingham Hospital and Vitamin D Links websites. Blood levels should be 70-100ng/ml or 175-250nmol/L and not the 30ng/ml or 75nmol/L most labs and doctors regard as adequate. The minimum daily dose should be 5000iu's per day, although the latest research indicates it should be 10,000iu's per day, see here. And please consider taking 2000mg/day NAC, it inhibits the MMPs which cause heavy bleeding. There's more info about them on our Menstruation page. You might like to read this page here too. I have found a minimum of 400mg/day is needed to stop heavy bleeding, but it appears you have the hang of using progesterone without my input! When you experience the cramps please rub the cream on your tummy or wherever you feel the pain. Take care Wray
