tea for cramps?

I have always had long (always at least 7 days)and painful periods... thought it would get better after my first kid... it didn't... maybe worse. The one that has helped me is raspberry LEAF tea (not the berry itself, but the leaf from the plant). Throughout history it has been used for woman's health. It tones the uterus so it can do it's job properly and has lots of the nutrients women lack or use more of during a period/pregnancy and even labor. It has done miracles for my cramps and lower back pain, and even moodiness.

Same situation

Well, thankfully I yet haven't had to deal with such issue, but I have lived it 1st hand. Both my sister & mom suffer from many of the issues listed above. In 07, when my sister was 24 she was diagnosed w/ endometrial cancer! Since she wants to have children, she decided to take the hormone treatment and thank God, 1 year later, she was told she was cancer free! She had a D & C last Thursday to make sure she was cleasr as previous tests indicated & we are waiting anxiously for the results. The Friday afterwards, during my mom's yearly exam, they found a black spot on her cervix! This past Friday she had a biospy done & from what the doc saw, she has stage 2 cancer! We are waiting the final results from the biospy so only God know what will happen. I write this to urge all of you to please always go to your doc for your yearly exams and if you have any unusual symptoms, don't put it off! My sis caught it on time & hopefully we can get good news with mom as well. P.S> they have always been irregular & had very heavy bleeding, ask questions, be informed!

Fibroids and Thyroid not preventing me...I have Faith!

I was diagnosed with high thyroid levels and several fibroid tumors in May of 08. I was told that "it could" prevent me from having a baby but they werent 100% sure. I had made a comment to my MOH on my wedding day that i hoped I wouldnt get pregnant on my wedding night regardless if i could or could not, and her exact words to me were "God is not going to let you have a baby until he knows you are ready for one!" I have been married since April 06, no baby yet. I know without a doubt, its not because I cant have one. I have faith that God will give me a baby when hes ready for me to have one. There is a song that says "If you want to hear God laugh, tell him your plans." and that is so true.

TTC with Low Thyrodi

My Husband and I have been trying for over a year to have a baby. No such luck as of yet. I have been just diagnosed a few months ago that my thyroid is extremely low. The specialist said that is probably 95 % the reason why I am not able to get pregnant. He asked me to try NOT to get pregnant till I see him next as there are risks that could happen. Hopefully we will have some good news on Thursday when I go back to see him.

Anyone in the same situation?

Fertility

I have been battling heavy, very painful, some irregular periods since i can remember to be honest! i was 19 when the doctor found abnormal cells in my womb and quickly had laser surgery to correct it which went according to plan. I am now turning 30 and long for a child it hurts so much. i have recently been referred to a fertility clinic so fingers crossed it takes me somewhere! i'm scared but will do whatever it takes.
