REPLAY: Rachael's Endo and PMDD Healing Story


Listen Later

For the past few weeks I’ve been recording testimonial videos with people who have taken my course, and I really wanted to share some of these stories because they’re just so incredible. I know a lot of you expressed an interest in hearing more positive and uplifting real life experiences with managing endo, and as I personally found these stories so inspiring, I thought you guys might as well. 

So I’m starting with Rachael’s story and I’ll leave Rachael to share her experience in the podcast, but to give you an overview, Rachael was suffering with PMDD, chronic fatigue that was affecting her ability to work and painful (endo) periods which required her to use opioids to get through. She’d recently had excision surgery but was still suffering with an array of symptoms and was feeling desperate and didn’t know what else to try.

Once Rachael started the course, through making nutritional and lifestyle changes, Rachael was able to:

  • Stop using opioids to get her through her period and instead now just uses magnesium baths, ginger tea, paracetamol and BeYou patches. 
  • Has gone from having to sleep for two hours every day during work (which was agreed through occupational health) due to severe fatigue to having sustained energy and has only needed these allocated sleep hours twice in the past 8 weeks! 
  • Stopped suffering with PMDD symptoms and works with her cycle to keep her endo and PMDD symptoms at the minimum. 
  • Her transformation is really remarkable and so I hope that if you also struggle with any of these, Rachael’s story will shine a light at the end of the tunnel for you...
