Yes I just re read my answer not very helpful 😳 I think in the past when I've had minor pain when I've taken angus castus think that's how you spell it that helped a bit I get pain from ovulation through til my period .

Tim trying to take milk thistle now regular to help my liver as I presume I have too much estrogen and also have given up soy dairy and wheat gluten that does seem to help a bit. Do you have any things that help?

Hi there girls...Same here with me...aweful pains starting with ovulation till my period...hurts like hell and can't touch it even...

I did cut caffeine, soy and have been reducing gluten and dairies...bit difficult tho. On the painful days I drink a lot of lemon water, wear sport bras all the time and try to massage the linfatic system.

Is your first time trying acumpunture?

Do you see improvements already? How does it feel after accupunture? Besides accunpunture and diet what else have you tried? I am looking for natural approaches but still not sure what to choose.
