My story

I was a very timid and shy child (most people do not believe that when we meet!), always an introvert, always an observer. When I was a teenager, after not having a couple of years of regular periods, the doctors diagnosed me with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOs) which definitely didn't help my shyness. I had severe facial acne, painful and irregular cycle as well as some cycsts on my ovaries which were symptoms strong enough to give me the diagnosis of PCOs.​

​

After turning 18 and still having all the symptoms the doctors told me that the only way to get the regular period back is to go on a contraceptive pill. Coming from a family of doctors I knew I had to trust this and got on a pill which initially seemed to help the acne and periods (which were now 'regular'), however, I would get really bad nausea, my breasts would be incredibly painful and I had a really bad water retention which led me to gain a lot of weight.

​

Long term I thought - oh but at least my periods are back which little did I know then they were not actual periods but hormone withdrawal bleeds which happens every time you stop taking the pill between cycles or you take a placebo pill.

​

I stayed on the pill for 12 years and I cannot believe how long it took me to get my health to where I wanted it to be. By the end of it, I started having very depressive thoughts, I would be constantly craving sugar, have a tremendous fatigue and little motivation. This is when I realised something is not right and the pill may be causing me to feel this way. I decided to take my health into my own hands and research alternative options.

​

After more than 1 year of extensive research on holistic methods, application of the nutritional and lifestyle changes - I managed to come off the pill and completely cleanse my body from it. My periods came back like a clock - I never had a regular monthly period in my life, even when I used to quit the pill for some time, they were just gone. So this was an incredible surprise and oh my can I tell you how much better I felt! My energy levels were back, my periods aren't painful anymore and I know exactly when the next one is going to come.

I felt so overwhelmed with joy of what I have achieved by studying Holistic Health that i
