When Carly first reached out, she was facing relentless PMDD symptoms that were disrupting her daily life, marriage, and mental health. She had been battling these symptoms since the age of 16—18 years of monthly chaos that consumed most of her cycle.

For nearly two decades, Carly was spending 21 days each month dealing with overwhelming emotional and physical symptoms that stole her energy, peace, and joy.

Her Initial Challenges:
• Crushing depression
• Hopelessness and anxiety
• Intense rage
• Restless legs and insomnia
• Severe bloating and hormonal acne
• Suicidal ideation
• Poor sleep and extreme emotional dysregulation

Over just a few months in our PMDD Program, Carly's symptom burden decreased by 223 points, from 444 to 221. She didn’t just survive her luteal phase—she reclaimed her life, her confidence, and her calm. 

Here's What Carly Says Now:
👉 “I’m not filled with rage in luteal.”
👉 “I didn’t have any suicidal ideation.”
👉 “I feel better than I ever did on antidepressants.”
👉 “Our house has a happier energy.”
👉 “I cannot believe I’m having symptom-free cycles without medication.” 

Carly went from 21 days of moderate-severe symptoms each cycle to zero severe symptoms recorded in her fourth symptom map—a complete transformation without medication. 

Carly’s story demonstrates that PMDD doesn't have to rule your life. Through an individualized, root-cause approach, she found lasting relief and emotional freedom.

Her transformation proves that with proper support, you can: 

• Avoid relying solely on SSRIs or birth control
• Improve naturally and sustainably
• Regain your emotional balance and joy
• Experience consistent symptom-free cycles
• Take back control over your body, mind, and life
