Periods suck.
Okay let me clarify, the pain that comes with a period sucks. Pain varies between each woman when "Aunt flow" arrives. Some women have mild cramps and can still be superwoman throughout the day, while others scream in a ball under the covers for hours. I my Rising Roses, am on the latter end of the spectrum.
My periods are THE WORST period! (pun intended). I take pills like they are skittles. Upping the dosage every month it seems, to the point of nausea due to over medicating. And the pills as much as I took them barely worked. I was not physically able to do anything. I was reaching a breaking point and would lay in bed so defeated thinking death was the next step. It was not until a friend mentioned on Facebook that she found the cure to her monthly pain, that I finally saw a glimmer of hope.
Nakia I dedicate this blog post to you. Hey girl!
She introduced the FITTOP. It's an electronic wireless, vibrating and heating belt. It comes in a few cute colors (I chose pink), and has various vibrating settings with the option to simultaneously heat. The review she gave was so positive I immediately went on Amazon and rushed ordered one for myself. My period was due in a few days and I had to have it. It arrived the day before my period and I was elated. I did not want to put all my hopes in this device just in case it didn't work for me, but just the fact that I had a potential solution in my hands made the upcoming dark day a little brighter.
The FITTOP comes with a cute little USB charger and works with any USB plug or can charge in your computer USB port. I immediately put it on charge to make sure it had enough juice to last the hours of pain I usually endure.
The day came. Aunt flow was in full force. I quickly grabbed my new FITTOP and it immediately began working it's magic. I had the vibration on the second setting which is an intense deep vibrational pattern and turned the heat on. My cramps were subdued after a few minutes and I found RELIEF! For the first time in 15 years my pain was actually bearable. I have been using the FITTOP now for about 9 months and it gets an A+ in my book. The device can also be used solely as a heating pad if you don't need the vibration at times. The vibration cycle is in 15 minute intervals, and it lasts about 8 hours of constant use before it needs to be charged again. I plan to order a second one so when the one I have loses charge, I can just put on the other.
If it wasn't for a simple review from a friend I would have never found this solution to such a tremendous issue in my life. This is why I have decided to make my review public. Hopefully I will be able to help another sister who may be going through the similar period pains that I underwent.
I am in no way being paid or endorsed by the makers of FITTOP and this is my honest review.

ReplyDeleteVery interesting. My pain has decreased Over the years but if they were as bad you would definitely have another Sister making a purchase. I will definitely share with others.
