NuWoman 30 Plus Review

For years I suffered with horrible PMS symptoms that included: severe water retention which always led to bloating and swollen breasts (sometimes it was so bad I'd go up two cup sizes!), awful mood swings, cravings, headaches, migraines, acne breakouts, severe cramps and emotional outbursts or uncontrolled weepiness.

I used to take an Evening Primrose Oil and Vitamin B6 supplement called "Primeve Plus" which did help a lot, but since moving to New Zealand, I had to find something else as I can't get Primeve here. I saw NuWoman 30 Plus on the shelf in my local supermarket and thought I'd give it a try. I had nothing to lose and was desperate to try anything as I'd been without the Primeve for a few months and my PMS was back with a vengeance.

The medium-sized round tablets are easy to swallow and one tablet is taken twice daily (morning and evening) with food. The back of the blister packs are marked with am and pm so it's easy to tell if I've taken one and the am and pm pills are exactly the same, so it doesn't matter if you don't want to use the markers and prefer to just take them in any order.

Containing Cimifuga Racemosa (Black Cohosh), Tyrosine, chromium picolinate, B-complex vitamins and calcium, these magical little tablets help to control mood swings, anger, nervous tension, irritability, emotional outbursts, stress and weepiness.

Black Cohosh is the root of a herb and has been used to treat painful menstruation, acne, PMS and menopause symptoms for years. Tyrosine supports the thyroid's natural functions especially during times of stress and tension. The B-complex vitamins aid in the body's natural balance and synthesis of hormones. Chromium Picolinate helps to regulate blood sugar levels which in turn controls cravings, headaches, overeating, mood swings and irritability.

NuWoman 30 Plus is safe to take if you're on the contraceptive Pill and it is designed to support natural hormonal balance, no matter what age you are (it can be taken by under 30's). It contains no added gluten, yeast, starch or artificial colouring.

At first I didn't notice any changes but after taking the tablets for 3 months, my PMS symptoms became less severe. They were still there but not nearly as bad. It's now six months later and I have months where I barely even notice PMS symptoms. Yes, they're still there, but not every month. Some months I cramp, some months I don't. Some months I'm bloated, sometimes I'm not (cutting down on salt intake the week before PMS is due to start definitely helps with water retention and bloating) and I haven't had a migraine in months!

Would I recommend it? Definitely.

As a mum of two young boys and mental health issues I constantly battle no energy and tiredness. I Am a give it a go person and have been trying fish oil, evening primrose oil, multi vitamin and vit b to try increase my energy and get rid of the constant tiredness, hindered by the youngest still not sleeping through regularly. So I was eager to try this new tablet. I decided to keep to my necessary meds and stop the vitamins listed above and give the product it's own legs to stand on. Within a few days I noticed an increase in energy and was less tired, however the next few weeks were the biggest challenge, my two boys both had operations within a week of each other, then a week after that I got my period...not a good few weeks. Normally I would be a mess with my period and the stress of my babies operations. I FLEW through, coped amazingly, I couldn't believe it. I had loads of energy, wasn't tired at all, finally , and was happy. Wow what a difference. I highly recommend these tablets. Esp if you a worn out stressed out mum like me. I'm a new woman.

For the past three weeks I have been taking these vitamins and I have to say that I am hugely surprised. I thought that vitamins usually took quite a long time to build up in your system before you had any results.

I have already overcome the dreaded one week prior to menstruation when I am usually a full blown cow and I have to say that this time it wasn't so bad this time round. I found that I was a lot more calmed and relaxed which is also very surprising at it is school holidays. I also found that the dreaded cramping that I get with my periods wasn't as bad. Which I am not sure if just lucky or a result of these tablets.

I would definitely recommend these vitamins to anyone. They have made my PMS a lot more bearable and I am happier for it.

I also found that the tablets were very easy to take. They were not huge like most other vitamins but reasonable sized round tablets. They come in a pretty pink package that is quite discreet as not to scream out that this is for PMS etc.

Holy Heck, where have these beauties been all my life!! I will admit I am only 29 ;) But I happened to be lucky enough to get my hand on these NuWoman 30 + I was very unsure at first, just suspecting another one of those "getting on bangwagon" for companies to sell to woman type products, but really can notice huge difference in myself, magic pills, I was feeling pretty grim so was needing something, something fast!! It has been just over 6 weeks and really can notice the difference, though getting regular sleep and sticking to a decent bedtime, and eating better has also been a huge contribute, upon saying that though, the tablets have really helped me with the balance for much longer, and even my partner has been able to notice some difference, I am not as irritable, teary and screaming, and my sugar craving aren't as bad...so no late night trips to the supermarket. I would recommend to any woman that is wanting to have that balance and something that isn't going to be interfering with their regular day to day life. These are something I continue to use and definitely if its making me feel more positive it will be something I am continuing to take.

By way of a bit of background, i've just turned 28 and been on contraceptive since i was about 14 and currently on a mini-pill where fortunately i do not menstruate but still experience the normal hormonal effects that us women are subjected to!

I was having a really tough time especially recently with a busy work/home/commute life and just not able to catch a break and it lead me to start becoming incredibly irritable and moody.

I started looking at causation and cure and as a big time skeptic of supplements i didnt think these little tablets would do anything BUT in as quick as one week my life has completely 180'ed and im feeling like a different woman!

I've lost my bitter attitude, i'm not snappy and argumentative, i feel SO relaxed and just able to handle stress a lot better. I honestly feel like these tablets have almost fixed a missing link in my brain, those close to me have all noticed the changes too.

I would recommend these tablets to anyone especially those women taking contraceptive, your hormones need a chance to balance out and this stuff 100% works!

I bought this to balance out my hormones, because I was often stressed which coursed irregular periods and I had pretty bad mood swings. I bought this from the pharmacy for $30 and got the 60 tablet pack to start of with. I read so many great reviews about it and I really wanted it to work for me.

I took two tables daily, one in the morning and one in the evening, taking it with meals as directed on the package. I started to notice throughout my days that I felt more agitated and I suddenly felt nervous for no reason. My mood swings were also all over the place than usual. It took me a while to figure out that it was the pills causing this, because it was the only change I had made. I stopped taking it after 2 weeks and those feelings went away. I don’t know if it would have made my periods regular because I didn’t take it long enough. It wasn’t worth for me to continue taking them after it altered my emotional state.

These tables weren’t for me and I won’t be taking them again. It may work well for others.

after the birth of my kid i thought, screw this happening again (she was planned, rest assured), and went back on the pill. it had been years since i'd been on it and it really didn't take long for the ugly anger monster that lives within to rear her face again.

i asked my dr for recs and while this product never came up (a lot of stupid things did), i suggested it to her as i had also asked in the forum what people were taking to control themselves. she didn't say not to, but preferred i do other things. so i said, okay but no thanks, that's not going to fix my issue, and ordered a box to try the same day.

they arrived and i began taking them religiously. the true test was the week before the bloody baron comes to visit, and i wasn't able to gauge how i was doing until 2 or 3 cycles in. well!!!!!!!

i have gone from wanting to rip my partners face of 100% of the time, to only 20-30% of the time. he used to just look at me, he would just BREATHE and i'd rip his head off in anger. it was seriously a problem and now... nothing.

it has also toned my period down immensely, though after child birth it's actually been toned down anyway, so this pill has just made it even more manageable.

now this may be TMI but it has also increased my libido. i've gone from not needing or ever wanting "it", to actively wanting it. and to be quite honest, it's made the whole experience so much more enjoyable as well, because i'm actually into it rather than just a alright get it over with type thing.

this pill is just... fantastic. a life saver. i'm so glad i took the plunge and sought "help" from the gals in the forum. they might not have saved my life but they have certainly saved my sanity, and that's more than enough!

I would be lost without this product. During times of stress and anxiety this has kept me sane :) I would highly recommend this to anyone going through menopause.

I purchased this because I have a couple of friends who use it and recommend it and the day I walked past it in the shop I thought this may help my work life stress and my home life stress. Pleasantly surprised. TMI but i've had two periods since taking this product and it arrived unexpectedly. Usually everything hurts and i'm tearful in the week leading up to it. I didn't experience that this. I feel even tempered. I feel that i have cried on the inside less and I've been more positive in my thinking. I will continue to use this product.

For the past month I was feeling really irritable, grumpy and just downright nasty. Nothing could stop the mean words from popping out of my mouth.

When I heard about this product I decided "what the heck" and decided to give it a go. I got to tell you now I'm glad I did. My mood has improved dramatically over the past 3 weeks of using this product its like the bitchy me has been sent away and the happy me is back!

One thing I love about these pills is that they have AM and PM on the blister-packs so you know when you've taken them (I have a habit of forgetting to take my medications as it is so that was a massive help)

I will definitely be using this product again - although it is a little pricy but totally worth it in my opinion. You get what you paid for.
