Integrative Therapeutics Cortisol Manager Supplement With Ashwagandha

First day after taking this … will update post after completing the bottle. I feel amazing. Perimenopause symptoms … also using estroven but decided to pair it with this supplement. The inner negative monologue is no longer at the forefront. I have no idea what science would say about how I am feeling but my mind feels clear.
I have hated making my partner for the past 3 years among the many of the simplest things that just begin to annoy you over time when mood is irritable. I made a sandwich for both of us today and he didn’t even ask but he cleaned the whole house yesterday and I actually felt like it.
No telling what I am going to feel like in 15 or even 30 days

Recently I was diagnosed with PMDD which is an acronym for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder. It’s basically a severe form of PMS where the “dysphoria” you experience is everything direct opposite of euphoria. Basically for an entire week every month you are a miserable wreck. Many women suffer from this problem, especially after having children or later in your reproductive years from 35-50. You are very easily triggered to fly off into rages, you’re severely depressed, suffer from insomnia, have anxiety attacks and pretty much lose all interest in your life. You basically have to sequester yourself as much as possible during this time period so the only person you make miserable is you and not the rest of the world. The thing is it’s not “all in your head” . A delicate dance exists between your hormones and neurotransmitters in your brain. My doctor prescribed an anti-depressant to help, but I was reluctant to take it only because I think anti-depressants mask an underlying problem and don’t fix it. I also personally believe anti-depressants are bad for your brain long-term. However, I was so miserable and my life felt hijacked for about 10 days each month surrounding my period. I was desperate enough to cave and just take the anti-depressants. I told myself, “Ok I’m going to make an effort to try to solve this by more natural means, but if it doesn’t work I am just going to have to take the anti-depressant because I can’t live like this”. I began researching about how to balance hormones naturally. Aside from the PMDD I also suspected I may suffer from too much cortisol and perhaps adrenal fatigue. I work almost full-time, run a business, go to school and take care of two small children. I must add too that I am a certified holistic health coach so my diet is also pretty healthy and balanced. So I have that working in my favor as well. I began taking more probiotics and eating more prebiotic food so my gut could manufacture neurotransmitters successfully. Anyway I initially bought this supplement to manage my stress, and much to my pleasant surprise it cleared up all my PMDD symptoms entirely!!!!! Usually the misery starts a week to 10 days before my period and absolutely nothing happened this past month. I had been taking the Cortisol Manager for approximately 3 weeks. I didn’t even know I was getting my period and felt absolutely fine! I was surprise when it started and only felt some slight irritability the first two days of my cycle. This is such a tremendous relief for me and I am so grateful to have found this product. I ordered a second bottle today and I actually want to start selling these supplements in my health coaching practice!!! The cortisol manager works very and I had positive results I wasn’t even expecting! Thank you so much to manufacturers of this product to save me from having to take anti-depressants to solve a problem that is more hormone based!!!

This is working great for sleep and even though dreams are vivid and wild now, they aren’t bad. What I am noticing and curious about is how they affect my hormones. I have been in menopause for a couple of years but since taking this, getting discharge and even spotting or a little bleeding after a month of taking these. Anyone else have this experience?
