Macafem Work?

[Wellness_Seeker]

Hi Everyone.  How are you?  I'm new to this board and am hoping that you ladies can help me.  I am thinking about trying macafem supplements and wondered if you have tried them and if you got an results?  How long did it take to start working?  I'm at the end of my rope and need to get some help fast!  I'm currently 42 years old and started into menopause around the age of 38.  I'm not sure if I have "normal" meno symptoms or not but I have been tested and that's what it is.  I am freezing cold all thur the day [yes I have had thyroid tested its normal] and than at night I'm so hot I can't sleep!  I have gained 60 pounds over the last year and a half [thinking it's due to lack of sleep as well as chocolate cravings that are unbearable!]  I have no sex drive at all, in fact I got married a year and a half ago and we have had sex once - that is not like me at all - before meno I had a high sex drive!  But the biggest issue for me with meno is the tiredness I have.  I am just so tired I can't do anything!  And I mean nothing - I lost my job about 6 months ago because I just couldn't do the job due to being so tired!  I have been to tons of doctors and they all say it will get better when you get peri - I can't wait that long!  I looked into going with BHRT but the cost for the first visit with labs would be about 1000.00 and not covered by my insurance!  I just don't know what to do anymore.  I read some great things about macafem and am thinking about trying it but before I order it at about 30.00 I would like others thoughts.  Any ideas or info you can give me would be great.  Thanks and have a great day  ~  Wellness_Seeker

I had been searching for something to help my hot flashes, night sweats and horrible mood swings as I've been going through menopause!

Nothing else came close to helping me. When I came across this product as I searched on the internet, I didn't expect results. Then I was absolutely amazed that my night sweats were gone within one day of taking Macafem! My mood improved almost instantly . This product has completely got rid of all of my symptoms. I was taking 3 pills twice a day but my stomach felt really bloated so I cut back to two pills twice a day and it is working wonderfully!

I have been using Macafem for 2 months and it REALLY DO what is states. I'm very glad I bought this product. Do not hesitate to try it!

[bettybloop]

I'm 51 and have been taking Macafem for a few months. Othen than minor hot flashes I feel great with macafem. I recommend it to all women going through menopause to try before using HRT because Macafem might be enough without hormones.

[E11EN]

There is no doubt at all in my mind that macafem is a lifesaver! I would get like 30 hot flashes a day before I started taking this supplement. I even tried other natural supplements but nothing helped so I was close to resorting to HRT thereapy.

My hot flashes and sweats are all gone and I feel so much better in terms of mood, and it also does CRAZY things to my sex drive. (LOL)

Macafem is amazing!!

[KAREN_0]

Macafem is full of nutrients and vitamins, it helps with balancing your own natural hormones and it helps with libido as well.

If there is anyone struggling with hot flushes, I can tell it really works!

[anna304]

True!

[Wanda816354]

Macafem is WONDERFUL!! After years of suffering hot flashes, depression, mood swings... I am finally back to my fun self again. My hubby´s comment last night was “Please don´t run out of those!” I have recommended Macafem to all of my friends.

Hello everyone, I am going through the menopause and im 49. Im suffering with terrible lower back pain.  Night sweats and generally feeling lifeless. The backpain feels like trapped wind, but im not so sure it is. Been the GP, she wont give me hrt but gave me strong co-codomol, which didn't help at all.  any suggestions to help with my back pain, its far worse in the morning at 4am.

[mkh9]

butterflybee, If nothing caused the back pain I would say start walking. It helped me. Is it in the bone or muscle? I can't take HRT either but I read that Estrogen/progesterone patches aren't bad for blood clots and many other problems as they don't absorb as much. I'm going to ask about these next week. I am just on estrogen vaginal cream and have been spotting for 2 weeks. I had night sweats they come and go. I keep a shirt and towel by the bed. So i can wipe down change into the new shirt and lay on the dry towel or wipe the bed down and flip the pillow and go back to sleep. It isn't great but it helps. My friend keeps a fan by her bed year round and that helps her. It is a small fan. For me getting a personal master trainer at the gym has helped me to almost get rid of my back pain. I had a muscle imbalance from sitting too much. It gave me tight quads in the front of the leg which pulled on the back buttock area. So i do certain exercises with weights and a quad stretch about 4 times a week. Try to not sit too much. If you are also up to date on your pelvic/Paps that is important too to make sure you dont' have any other problems. I know it is a rough time.

My sister-in-law swears Macafem helps her and she had horrible symptoms before taking it!

[EmVita]

I've been in menopause for 5 years but haven't got any therapy yet.
I found this product online, it was hard not being skeptical about herbs but now I think I LOVE MACAFEM!, after 20 days of taking it, it took away my fatigue. My skin is looking and feeling good and my hair looks gorgeous to me now.
I hope my experience is helpful to you. Warm regards!

[c0rinne99]

I've been taking Macafem since 2 months ago, three tablets a day and my night sweats are virtually gone, I see a big improvement in the fatigue too. I am feeling healthier and I'm so happy I found this product online!

[KimberlyXo]

I was experiencing terrible hot flashes and night sweats, so I tried Macafem and it stopped my symptoms after only two weeks. Some time after I found it also calmed another list of symptoms but the one it most relieved was joint pain, I can totally recommend this natural product, it has calcium and other vitamins and minerals that we all need.

Hi I'm 51 years old and Ive had menopause for 4 -5 years now and my main problem is breast pain I was looking at buying macafem its expensive and I was wondering is it really worth it - I do get the hot flush (when you don't want it) my body is changing all the time, one week I can fit into my jeans no problem the next week they don't.  I'm fed up and need something so you would all agree with macafem ?

[JuliaTh]

Hi, I've been taking Macafem for several months and had not even had one flash! An it's helped with other menopause symptoms as well. I have adjusted the the amount I take and every now and then I take a break and see how my symptoms go. I'm extremely happy that I found Macafem

[anna304]

Macafem is so worth it, I can't even express it to you. I was having fatigue, so tired all the time, it was an awful feeling that impacted my work too. I took macafem for just a week and now I have more energy since I can remember. Even getting half the benefit I got from this supplement would be worth it.

[Heather4Xo]

Yes yogaguru, our hormones are unpredictable. I would recommend you to try macafem, I found the official product at google shopping!

[yogaguru]

Did you have the same symptoms as me? I am 47 y.o. and experiencing all these symptoms too! I talk to other women that are younger and older than me but no one seems to have the issues I am having! I have a shooting pain in my lower back that comes and goes, with weakness in my legs- a dull aching feeling in my muscles; sometimes is in my legs other times in my arms. My menstrual periods are so light that come every 4 months. In addition, I have mini-hot flashes and feel anxious like I am about to die. This is just horrible! I am an avid hiker, I eat well, no gluten or carbs; take flaxseed oil, Vitamin D3, 1000 mg of C vitamin and glucosamine chondroitin for my muscles and bones. I don't know what else to do. I have visited a back pain specialist, a neurologist, primary care physician and had acupuncture but nothing seem to help. I am driving myself crazy thinking that something else is really wrong with me. Any thoughts???

[Heather4Xo]

I am very happy already, with this product. I just received the product yesterday and feel better. My hormone fluctuations have been terrible for a few years and nothing I have tried worked. I am 45 years old and have perimenopause for a few years. I am now in early menopause and felt like I was dying. Macafem is amazing and I will be ordering every month from now on.

[crystalgal]

Hi LasticsBody I was wondering the same before buying. To me this product is a godsend! I've had the symptoms of menopause for several years, including the scariest one to me, irregular heart beat. I exhausted all the other options but nothing work until I took the plunge with macafem. My irregular heart beat and hot flashes have disappeared... if only I had known about macafem sooner!

[Heidilin]

Thanks for your info. Ive been looking all over for this. I just ordered sum Macafem. hope it works for me too.

[Amy9000]

I have been taking 2 or 3 tablets a day. I still have flushes and sweats once in a while but not constantly like before macafem. I just feel better with my mood and everythng.

[LasticsBody]

It was an unlikely answer, but this stuff saved my life: Deer Antler Velvet is used in Chinese medicine for virility, but I've got to tell you, I am so grateful to my trainer for suggesting I try if for my hot flashes, joints going crazy, sleeping and sex drive.  I feel so much better, partially from not being so disrupted by the heat all the time, but also from the deeper, longer sleep I'm getting.  I tried Macafem too and didn't feel as much of an impact as I did with the Longevitrol.  It (Macafem) also contains corn starch and the company did not answer me when I asked if it was non GMO corn.  So if GMOs are a concern, it's a gamble.  

[ValerieJw]

Hi LasticsBody, I contacted them and they confirmed that Macafem does not contain corn starch, no preservatives, solvents, artificial colors or flavors, yeast, wheat, lactose or gluten so I just ordered 1 bottle!

[moonbeambc]

same here Gina186, I haven't been able to sleep for more that a couple hours a night because of horrible night sweats, and I didn't feel like myself at all. After finding macafem I decided to try it out I started with 1 tablet and then some time later went to 2. No more hot flashes or nightsweats...couldn't believe it in such a short time! totally ecommended.

[7ammy]

katiejor, if you are in Tamoxifen better consult your doctor before taking it or any other.

[katiejor]

I also take thyroid medication daily, along with a number of supplements (Vit C, Vit D, milk thistle, Vit B + and a multi vitamin.)  I was diagnosed with breast cancer 8 years ago- have been clear since treatment but am on my second round of tamoxifen, for a total of 10 years on the drug.  I have had night hot flashes since the age of 45.  Anyone know if the combo of tamoxifen and thyroid meds will affect the efficacy of something like Macafem?

[7ammy]

Hi ladies, from what I understand Macafem stimulates my body's own hormone production, that's why it does not work immediately but it DOES WORK!
I've been on macafem more than a year, it took away my severe hot flashes and mood swings.

[tmargette]

I am in exactly the same boat you are in.  I started this journey when I was 38.  It started off with heart palps, night sweats, and extreme allergies.  I didn't know what was wrong and it sent me to the hospital thinking I was having a heart attack.  I did not have health insurance, so testing wasn't an option.  Finally, a few years of misery later, and gaining 50lbs (without diet changes), I exercised 3 - 4 times a week and in a year and half I went from 147 to 190.  I finally capped at 220...No matter what I did, the weight would not come off.  I finally got insurance, and had a pap.  They said I had cervical cancer.  That was removed in November 2014, I lost 20lbs in a month.  So, since then, I've began seeing a trainer, workout 4-7 times a week, both cardio and weight lifting (I am 43 now).  I finally had my hormones tested (which everyone refused to do because they thought I was too young), I found out my levels are all post-menopausal.  This was discovered just a month ago.  I've had cancer screenings, thyroid tests, etc.... After two months of non-stop working out, I've lost 10lbs (appx).  I fluctuate between 189-194 now.  Still slow going.  I get the fatigue you are talking about.  Got it yesterday, and it is debilitating.  It takes ALL my thought power to just move, dizzy spells, vertigo, etc.  I go up and down like a yoyo, one day abundant energy, then the next day, just dragging.  I was looking into Macafem too.  I am a biologist, so I will refer to my botany books and other scholarly resources I have access to and get back with you.  I really wish the medical community would pay more attention to women's health issues.  We are sole providers for our families sometimes and early menopause, or finding ovarian cysts too late to treat is just unacceptable.
