Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.
Three years ago, I had been experiencing many issues relating to hormone imbalances: heavy flow, severe cramps, fibroids, decreased sex drive, fatigue in the afternoon, and irritability. I knew these symptoms were imbalances, but wasn't sure what to do. I've always been healthy, happy and vibrant; so I needed to do something.
After checking things out with my doctor and weighing my options, I decided to study information on this subject before making any decisions. I discovered a number of things relating to women's issues that can be rendered with a little knowledge of WHY our hormones become out of balance.
I now teach "Women's Issues" classes about this. Here is the skinny of the information: I began using Prenolone Cream, which contains pregnenolone and progesterone.
I learned through study that pregnenolone is the pre-curser hormone controlling the production of many other hormones. Our hormones are disrupted by many things: aging, nutrition, chemicals in our home products, stress, and environment.
After using Pregnenolone for two months daily, I began to experience positive changes in my body. My flow became less, irritability was gone, the feeling for romance was back and my cramping was significantly less. Now I have been using about a 1/4 tsp daily for over two years.
I'm not as disciplined as I was in the beginning, but for the most part, I use it daily. If I feel any of the symptoms returning, I just use a little more cream during that month. Health is synergistic though; so I also drink my NingXia Red juice, exercise and I use chemical free products.

1. | Associated topics: mood-swings,menstruation-/-period,menstrual-cramps,perimenopause-/-menopause — "The present study indicated that lavender aromatherapy as a potential therapeutic modality could alleviate premenstrual emotional symptoms, which, at least in part, is attributable to the improvement of parasympathetic nervous system activity. This study further implies that HRV could evaluate the efficacy of aromatherapy using various fragrances to relieve premenstrual symptoms, and ultimately, support the mind and body health of women." | Link |
2. | Associated topics: hormones — "Therapy with beta-caryophyllene [present in many essential oils] may present a promising novel, non-toxic therapeutic option for patients with endometriosis." | Link |
3. | Associated topics: hormones,fatigue,libido-/-sex-drive-/-arousal-/-sensual — "After inhalation of clary sage oil, cortisol levels were significantly decreased.... Thyroid stimulating hormone was also reduced.... Clary sage oil has antidepressant-like effect...." | Link |
4. | Associated topics: fatigue — "Lavender, mint [peppermint], orange, rose, chamomile, rosemary, and sage were used.... Depression levels in the touch-music-aroma therapy group... showed a larger decrease than in the... control groups [that did not include aromatherapy].... [FMS] symptoms such as restless sleep, headache, morning fatigue, exhaustion, feeling like crying, and bowel complaints were also significantly reduced." | Link |
5. | Associated topics: menstruation-/-period,menstrual-cramps — "Peppermint oil is harmless and acts locally to inhibit GI [gastrointestinal] smooth muscle contraction.... Peppermint oil solution administered intraluminally can be used as an antispasmodic agent with superior efficacy and fewer side effects than hyoscine-N-butylbromide...." | Link |
6. | Associated topics: hormones — "DHEA [a component of PD 80/20], an androstene hormone [precursor to estrogen, testosterone, progesterone, cortisone, and other hormones], has been shown to possess a wide range of beneficial biological effects mainly attributed to immune system modulation.... thus leading to beneficial effects in diverse human diseases including resistance to infection, neuroprotection, wound healing, diabetes, hepatic injury, cardiovascular disease, and cancer." | Link |
7. | Associated topics: mood-swings — "Beta-Caryophyllene [component of cannabis, clove, copaiba], a CB2 [cannabinoid] receptor agonist produces multiple behavioral changes relevant to anxiety and depression in mice.... these preclinical results suggest that CB2 receptors may provide alternative therapeutic targets for the treatment of anxiety and depression. The possibility that BCP may ameliorate the symptoms of these mood disorders offers exciting prospects for future studies." | Link |
8. | Associated topics: mood-swings — "A number of essential oils are currently in use as aromatherapy agents to relieve anxiety, stress, and depression.
