I am a single mom of two boys who in the last few years has been on a journey of self discovery, finding out who I am and where I wish to go.... I am in my 40's and it seemed a good time to empower myself.... I met these strong woman who make up our group and speak to so many of the issues that I was wanting to address and it empowered me to become so much more than myself. I want to touch and enrich other woman who may also be on a journey of self discovery, thru knowledge. I am looking forward to touching other womans lives and in so doing enriching my own..... Welcome to my site and good wishes to you in your journey!

My first experience with HRT was at about age 45. I was having hot flashes so I went to see my gynecologist. He didn’t test me or really ask me any questions, simply wrote me a prescription for Premarin. I took it for a week before I threw it in the garbage. It made me feel awful. I decided to just live with the hot flashes and the added bonus of night sweats. Although I had no major health problems, I started having lots of bad hair days and dry itchy skin. I was kind of a mess. In fact my constant companions were the 7 Dwarves of Hormonal Imbalance ~ Itchy, Bitchy, Sweaty, Sleepy, Bloated, Forgetful & Psycho. I didn’t realize how my ‘friends’ were affecting my loved ones.

God blessed me with a wonderful, supportive and very patient husband……that just couldn’t do anything right…in my overly critical eyes. I was very quick to anger and had no patience for anything or anyone. (I was told this later, by those who love me) At the time, though,my mood swings didn’t seem all that bad….to me

Fast forward to 1999. I’m 52…still having hot flashes and night sweats. I received a letter in the mail about a home-based business. I sent for the info and in about 3 days I got the packet. It was very intriguing information. They were claiming that most of the personal care products in the marketplace are full of potentially harmful or even carcinogenic ingredients. How could this be? Why would that be allowed?

After doing a little research online, I realized it was true. These toxins were bad for us. Next, I’m in the bathroom reading all the labels. I had many bottles and tubes of lotion, shampoos, etc. (always looking for something new to help the dry skin and bad hair!) Every product had at least 2 or usually many more of the harmful ingredients. I did the only thing I could do (did I mention I was compulsive, too?) I threw everything into the trash.

Hubby came home from work that evening and was in the shower, calling to me, “where’s the soap?” before I told him I had thrown everything away. That stuff is all bad for us, I told him. Luckily, I overnighted our first order of very safe and very effective products and have never looked back.

The safer, cleaner products made a difference right away. No more bad hair days and my skin felt and looked great. At that same time I had been reading about natural progesterone and how it could possibly help with my flashes and sweats. Imagine my delight when I realized that this company I had just gotten involved with carried that very product. It was in my next order! My husband noticed the difference before I did! He said he was so happy to have his Geri back. Believe me, I was happy to be back. Since then I have been on a mission to share the information regarding harmful ingredients and the Natural Progesterone cream with as many people as I can.

Eight years ago I wouldn’t have believed that at age 60 I would feel better than I ever have, that I would be meeting women who would become lifelong friends and that I would be the owner of a growing business that helps people make positive healthy changes in their lives.

Enjoy your visit to this site. It is full of enlightening information. My hope is that this information will bless you as it has me and thousands of other women.

Small changes, big results. I stumbled into this business of hormone balancing through the help of a good friend, Debbie. In 2005, Debbie had just come out of a grueling battle with menopause, and she looked great! She attributed her victorious outcome to natural progesterone, among other products. Certainly, I thought to myself, at age 39, I was too young to be premenopausal. But Debbie looked better than she had in years, and I wanted a piece of that action! Yes, I had endometriosis and fertility issues, but they did not interfere with my day-to-day life. I felt that my monthly mood swings were minimal and I could function without the use of prescription drugs. Life was good, right? Well, it seems it was only “fine”. I started using the progesterone cream, only hoping to look years younger and as refreshed as Debbie did. I was inconsistent, not really believing in the power of the product. At Debbie’s insistence, I began to be consistent and soon became convinced! Symptoms of hormone imbalance that I didn’t realize I had quietly disappeared. After a few months, I suddenly realized that I had stopped grinding my teeth at night, and my resultant aching jaw and morning headaches were gone. It then occurred to me that I was falling asleep easily without “anxiety brain” getting in the way. And my family and I both realized that my monthly mood swings (which were not so minimal as I thought) had gone by the wayside, as I went through month after month without rage or crying jags. I had energy and more importantly, patience. With the discovery that the progesterone cream worked, I embarked on other products to balance my pH level and supplement my mineral intake. My energy increased yet again. My feet no longer hurt when I first got out of bed. My hands no longer ached after typing a full day. My husband and my son started using the whole-body balancing products and quickly realized the benefits of them. My son’s concentration in school is better and he feels energized and ready to learn. My husband’s energy has increased and he feels more alert. I had thought that my life was fine, that I was just getting older and these things happened. I didn’t believe that I needed any help, because I could get through a day without medication. It wasn’t until the problems left me that I even realized I had them. And I now see that they were not a function of getting older; they were because I was out of balance. I can’t even consider going back to that life I used to live. Because I wasn’t really living. I cannot emphasize how much I believe in the power of these products. My life has been bettered by the use of natural progesterone and other whole-body balancing products, and so I want to spread the word. In fact, I want to sing it from the rooftops to anyone that wants to hear more. You, too, may think your life is just fine, you are getting by. I’m here to tell you, there is more to life to be had. Life doesn’t have to be just “okay”. I have several colleagues I work with at this mission and we are always looking for other women who would like to join us as we make a difference, one woman at a time.

I survived Breast Cancer but wasn’t sure I could survive hot flashes from menopause.... In my early 40’s I experienced mood swings, sudden tears, crashing fatigue, irritability, anxiety, aching muscles, gastrointestinal distress, mild depression, dizziness, light-headedness, and episodes of loss of balance. At the time I had no clue that these were symptoms of estrogen dominance and that could be my problem. I went to the doctor, but since I was only in my early 40’s, she did not even mention the possibility of hormone imbalance. I was diagnosed with mild fibromyalgia, mild depression, vertigo and tinnitus, and a possible with my heart and stomach valves. Medicines and surgeries would “fix me up”. Yeah right. Of course, I blindly followed the doctor’s orders, taking prescribed medications, and enduring several surgeries. These surgeries did seem “fix” me – after all, it can’t bother you if you take it out– until your body misses that part…which is a whole other story! However, I now believe that many of the problems might have been solved by balancing my hormones. I will never know. All I know is that I can’t get back what the doctors took out. Let's fast forward through several surgeries and medications …and into my late 40s. The doctors still did not consider that hormone imbalance might be my problem. I still had regular periods and no problems (as far as I knew), so how could it have been hormones? Little did I know… Then, at age 49, my world crashed! Six weeks after I had been given a clean bill of health after a mammogram, I found a small lump in my breast, which was malignant. I went through a lumpectomy, traditional chemotherapy and radiation. The chemo put me into “instant menopause” and the severe hot flashes and night sweats began. I read about HRT and menopause thought that if I could just get some estrogen my life would be peaches and cream! I begged and begged my doctors. Fortunately, they all shouted a resounding “NO”. I called them my “hot flashes from Hell”. I got heart palpitations so bad that I couldn’t breathe, and got so dizzy that I nearly passed out. If I was driving, I had to pull over to the side of the road. Picture this happening 15 or more times a day, every day! And the night sweats…. waking up every half hour soaked to the skin was no fun either! The doctors prescribed all sorts of Rxs over the years, and all but one failed. The last one (which worked for a while), was for progestin, a synthetic progesterone. This was effective in taming my hot flashes, but I had severe side effects, including gaining over 40 pounds (nearly impossible to lose when you are estrogen dominant). So I gave up on that remedy too. At this point, after suffering with the horrible hot flashes for nearly ten years, I read that natural progesterone might help. Well, I hurried to the health food store and bought a jar of progesterone. Even though I told myself I had given up trying to find help, I was still willing to try “just one more thing”. It relieved my hot flashes for about 3 months. I was ecstatic! Then it stopped working. Boo! So I figured that was just one more failure and quit taking it. I now know that it was just the brand of progesterone that wasn’t right, not progesterone in general. In fact, everything was wrong with that progesterone. According to Dr. John Lee, it must not be in a jar; not contain glycerin or Phytoestrogens; and be a certain strength of USP progesterone. Mine was wrong on all counts. And, to top it off I wasn’t dosing correctly. So when the progesterone stopped working, I figured it was just another failure and quit using it. By this time, I had searched for nearly 10 years for help, and just gave up. The hot flashes were still very bothersome but at least they had calmed down a bit and didn’t make me nearly pass out any more. I just decided that I was destined to have “weird stuff” happen to me and would be taking medicines and having surgeries the rest of my life. About this same time, I became enamored with the internet. I had quit my full time job to have time to take care of my mom, who has advanced Parkinson’s disease. That gave me time to play on the internet and start networking. I have met many people and developed friendships with them. I met one woman who has changed the direction of my life - Deb Wells. Deb introduced me to the “right kind” of natural progesterone. This time I found relief of not only my hot flashes and night sweats but also many symptoms that I didn’t even know were caused by hormone imbalance. I started reading articles from Deb and doing my own research. I realized that I wanted to “link arms” with Deb and others who are spreading the word about natural hormone balancing with progesterone. I also started using other supplements such as those in the Balanced Woman Pack and Durian. Once I started getting my body in balance, I started feeling better. Duh! For the first time in many many years, I am starting to feel normal again! Many of my aches and pains are gone, my mood has leveled out, I sleep better at night, I have more energy and during the day, and….those debilitating hot flashes have subsided! I am starting to lose some weight, although that will be a long process. I have also stopped taking all my Rx medications except for my thyroid meds, which I need since I no longer have a working thyroid. I feel that I have gotten my life back. I joined in this mission to help other women balance their health, their hormones and their lives. I love helping women get their bodies back into balance and helping them avoid many of the health problems caused by hormone imbalance. Like our motto says: Making a Difference ~ One woman at a time.

I am a wife to a wonderfully supportive husband. I have two children - a daughter, 14 going on 34, and a son, 8. We are in beautiful North Carolina, where we can get to the mountains or the beach in only 3 hours - just depends on what kind of day-trip we are in the mood for! We live in a rural town, but are only 30 minutes from the state capital Raleigh.

I am 36, and have hormonal problems already.

In 2002, I went to the ER with what turned out to be kidney stones. In 2003, I was having pain again, so I naturally assumed it must be another stone. My silly doctor assumed the same thing, and prescribed meds for it. After no relief for a month, we discovered that I had an ovarian cyst the size of a cantaloupe!! How in the world my doctor missed that, I'll never know.

August 2003, I had the cyst removed, along with that ovary and tube. I was assured by the specialists that this was a freak thing, and I had no reason to expect to ever have another one. They didn't know why it happened. These were GYN cancer specialists at a leading cancer hospital, and I trusted that they knew what they were talking about.

That fall, I went to a NEW doctor complaining that I just didn't feel well. I had no idea what was wrong, I just knew that I didn't feel "right", and something had to give. I was having panic attacks, my blood pressure was up, I was gaining weight, had nearly-constant heartburn, I was moody, forgetful, had trouble sleeping. I walked out of the doctor's office with prescriptions... a whole handful. 2 anti-depressants, a blood pressure med, a diuretic for bloating, and for acid reflux.

Over the next year, I went through about my life, resigned to the fact that I was just not a healthy woman. I thought, "Well, I guess this is jist how it's going to be from now on".

Then I saw an post online. It talked about estrogen dominance, and some of the symptoms listed described me perfectly! I joined a hormonal support group in September 2005, thinking there was NO WAY I could be having hormonal issues. That was for old ladies! I lurked in the group for ages - reading articles, watching conversations, mulling it all over. I was filing it away in my head for "later", when my time came.

One day a post came through that said "The average age for premenopause is 35". Umm... hello? That was my light bulb moment. I was... 34, post- ovarian cyst, on anti-depressants and other drugs, feeling "not quite normal". I RAN back to my doctor to ask if this could possibly the explanation. Like so many women, I got a pat on the head and a reassurance that I was way too young. My doctor increased the dosage on my anti-depressants. (A drugged-into-oblivion woman doesn't complain very loudly.)

Still makes my blood boil even now!

So I sat in the support group for a year, soaking up everything I could. The information was so clear, so sensible. I sure didn't understand everything, but I caught enough to know that I was estrogen dominant.

After this experience, I joined the mission to educate women about their health and hormones. Nobody had ever explained these things to me, so I knew there had to be so many other women out there suffering needlessly!

While I am not the picture of perfect health (yet!), the products in the Balanced Woman Pack made me feel normal again. I have been educating myself, and sharing what I learn with anyone who will listen.

I love to research and read. There is so much information out there... articles from MANY doctors who concur that natural progesterone IS the missing link. I sometimes get fired up about the FDA and the toxins they have allowed to compromise our health. I get angry at the gross negligence and cavalier attitudes of doctors who think it's their way or nothing. I get upset at misleading literature and news that equate synthetic progestins with bioidentical progesterone. I weep when I hear teenage girls asking for the pill to "regulate their periods" and make PMS less painful. Want an earful? Just ask me about any of these things!

While I do not have all the answers, I believe that women need a place to share and learn. Sometimes just knowing that what we are going through is normal is all we need to hear.

I want each of you to feel as fortunate as I felt in stumbling upon the information that is shared here. My outlook on life has turned 180 degrees. I have hope and better health, and information that empowers me to make health care decisions that affect me and my family.

I hope this website helps you do just that.

Blessings,
Shana

For the last several years I have found myself on an emotional rollercoaster ride and dealing with many hormone issues. My body was continually changing and adding new complaints or issues one by one, and most of them were things that I would say “That’s no big deal, I will just ignore it”, or was something that I just didn’t know how to explain in a way that I thought anyone, including my doctor, would find credible and not just see me as a big complainer. The last year things really stepped up and I had brain fog and memory problems so badly that it was extremely hard to function on a day to day basis and do any of the things that I needed to do for my family or business. When you are a homeschooling mom, caring for a special needs child, and trying to run a homebased business....... this isn’t good!!! Everyone deals with their own set of trials and busy life though, so I am sure that most can understand this. The fall of 2005, all of this came crashing down and I even began to wonder if I was “losing it”. I became aware for the first time ever that all of these issues were hormone related and very common. I think I cried for a week out of a combination of sheer joy to know that I wasn't just going crazy, and pure frustration that I didn't have any idea that most of these issues were hormonal and there was an alternative much better than a hysterectomy looming in my future! I began using some wonderful products, including natural progesterone cream. I cannot even begin to tell you what a difference this has made in my life as my hormones are working on balancing out. At 34 years old I found I had 34 of the 50 symptoms of Estrogen Dominance, with the major issues being extreme mood swings and irritability, extreme flooding during my menstrual cycle, problems sleeping, beginnings of hot flashes and night sweats, fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and memory problems. I began using a natural progesterone cream in October 2005; and in the first few days I noticed a difference in the brain fog and memory, as well as improvements with my first period after starting the cream. I did not intend to begin a new business and was definitely not looking for it! However, after experiencing some life changing products I found myself sharing with nearly everyone I came in contact with about these products, in hopes that they too would get some much needed information and relief from their hormone related issues. I eventually decided I really wanted to help get the word out to other women that we do not have to continue to suffer in silence and we are not alone in the issues we are dealing with. If you are dealing with any of the issues you read about on my site, I want to encourage you to continue learning about the causes, and want you to know there is hope! Patty

Hi, Thank you for visiting my website. My name is Shelley Kramer and I grew up and live in Southern California. I am a cancer awareness and consumer product advocate and the Director of the Los Angeles Chapter of the Cancer Prevention Coalition. I lost my Mom to Cancer when she was just age 56, after she worked for Revlon and their toxic products for 20 years putting cosmetics on women across the US. I am also a Cancer Survivor, tumors removed from my lip, eyelid, nose. I have been researching the reasons why there are so many cancers for the past 25 years. I wanted to learn more about alternative hormone help for men-o-pause women and men. I found out about the toxin chemicals in daily used products 10 years ago and really researched this area. I started menopause at age 46 with hot flashes, irritability, mood swings. My doctor wanted to put me on artificial hormones and I said no way. My Mom took estrogen for 15 years. I wanted alternative hormone health products that really worked. I found out about Neways Int and their product line and have been extremely pleased with all of the beauty cosmetics, personal care, nutritional, anti aging and household cleaning products. They are the best and I love sharing this information with the public and everyone I meet. I love helping people with their health, preventing cancer and illness, and leading long and happy lives.

Nita Lopez ~ Missed out on a lot of sunny days. My hormone problems start at eleven years old. I remember my brother Mike always shoving me in the chest and boy it hurt. So, my mother being concerned with the painful to touch lumps in my wee little buds of developing breast took me to the doctor; my diagnosis Fibrocystic Breast Syndrome. My mother was told to never let any perform surgery. You must be sitting there think how does an eleven year old who isn’t even wearing a bra end up with such a diagnosis? Let’s move to thirteen: I started my monthly cycle. Things were going ok; breast developing quite nicely if I do say so myself. Lol!! But the pain was still there. At fourteen is when I felt out of control. I started having migraines, stomach problems, and my cycle allowed me to miss three days a month out of school. Yehaw!! I got to miss school, for most kids that would mean sleeping in late, lying on the couch, and being pampered. I was miserable! My migraines I could handle, but the stomach pains, cramps, bloating, and my cycle became Aunt Flow. I mean when I stood up I would bleed like someone turned a shower on full blast and the doctor wondered why I was anemic… Geeze! I felt like I was going to bleed to death. Can I say PACK MY STUFF!! My mother’s response, “Here let me help you”! OMG!!!!!!!!! No one understands me!!! I hate you all!! And off to my bedroom I went and I would cry myself to sleep. The answer, Birth Control Pills, now I was set me up for Breast Cancer, Infertility issues, Cervical Cancer and bone loss; which is estrogen driven. Birth Control is a form of estrogen, that tricks the body into thinking it is pregnant and then another pregnancy cannot take place. WOW!! I sure wished my mother knew this, back then. Let me mention the stomach issues. I was diagnosed with a nervous stomach and given a prescription for Donital, which is a barbiturate. This diagnose was given without any testing. I believe if proper testing were done the doctor would have diagnosed with me Crohns; which is an Autoimmune Disorder. Now let’s fast forward to 33 years old; I finally gave birth to my last baby after five miscarriages. Remember the birth control at fourteen? Yup, infertility issues my body did not produce enough progesterone for me to carry to term. I didn’t find this out tell my eighth pregnancy and I was put on Natural Progesterone. GO Figure!!! Three years later life seems to go back to when I was fourteen. The migraines are now being controlled by codeine. The stomach issues ended up being Crohns and I was on Prednisone to control this issue. This mild-mannered super mom is now diagnosed with PMS! Can I say I could get cranky faster than a speeding bullet, argues with friends and family more powerfully than a locomotive and is able to jump to conclusions in a single bound. Ok, now PASS ME SWEETS! Or more specific make it Chocolate! And God help them if anyone opens their mouth, I just snarl at them and point to the calendar and they got the hint. As a matter of fact, they sometimes left skid marks as they ran out of the room to safety. And the menstrual problems went to flooding three weeks out of the month to NO cycle for five months. This is now called the perimenopause stage, but my doctors said I was too young. How confusing is that? Seems my hubby knew more than the doctors. Let’s move to the here and now. I am post menopausal seven years now. This means I have not had a monthly cycle for seven years. I have never had a hysterectomy and I have never gone on my doctors’ protocol of Premarin. Can we pass the party hats and horns and celebrate? Oh, it’s a little premature!! Please, I invite you to read the articles here and educate your self. Come on in let’s see why I and so many women are having these same problems. I want to help bring the Sunshine back into our lives! May This Site Be A Blessing, Nita

Sandy Phipps

Hi, My name is Sandy Phipps and I am a 54 yrs. old. I am married to the love of my life, Bill, now for 36 yrs. We never were blessed to have children and hopefully on this website you will learn why. I never knew what was wrong with me until Jan. of 2006, when I came across an yahoo group email talking about all the problems I was having health wise. I went right to the website and ordered products. Within a week of using the products I noticed a huge difference in the way I felt. No more hot flashes, night sweats, I was actually nice for a change! I had energy I hadn't had in years. I was happy and serene! I couldn't believe it. Let me tell you my story. We were married in Sept. 1971 and right away decided we wanted to have children. Nothing happened. Year after year went by...still nothing. Doctors said it was my husband, but that I also had some problems. But, they didn't know how to help us. So, we just decided it was meant to be. At about the age of 32 I started having weight gain, mood swings, depression, and my breast were so sore all the time. I would go to the doctor and have 10cc of fluid taken from fibroid cyst from each breast, but they never told me what caused them. Ten more years roll by...more weight gain, more anxiety, tired in the afternoons, loss of libido...I just thought this is what is suppose to be like going thru menopause. I didn't like myself and didn't like anybody else.. Fast forward to 2006 when I found a little gal named Nita, she told me I could be helped and that all my health problems could be caused by too much estrogen in my body. I have never taken birth control pills or the prescription drugs the doctors want to put you on for menopause, so how in the world could I be estrogen dominant? With the help of Nita and Debbie, they helped me understand we can have too much estrogen from the foods we eat and the junk we put on our bodies! We now don't drink milk with hormones, but we are lucky we have our own organic milk, we are Jersey dairy farmers. And we butcher our own meat, no growth stimulates, no antibiotics.... And now, we have changed all our personal care products to Neways and the new safe cosmetic products. Why cause extra estrogen and poisions into your body when you don't have to? Take a look around and ask questions. You will be amazed at what you find out and how great you can feel even though you are going to pre menopause or menopause. Thanks for taking time to look and I know we can help you, you are not alone! Sandy

A little over a year ago is when my journey to recovery from hormone imbalance began. I was in counseling for myself as well as marriage counseling. I have been in counseling several times before and prescribed medication each time upon the first visit. This time my doctor insisted I did not need medication that my problem did not seem to be chemical. This confused me. A few more sessions with him and we discovered two things. 1. My marriage falling apart was not my fault and 2. My Depo Provera shot was most likely the cause of my depression and emotional outbursts. I had been on the shot for 10 years and it never once occurred to me that my insane mood swings, anxiety attacks, and depression could possibly be due to birth control. Once this theory was presented to me I started doing research. I learned how bad Depo actually was for the body along with most other forms of birth control. I did not get my next shot but I was scared of how long it was going to take for it to work out of my system. I had quit taking Depo once before and it took two years to work its way out. All that time I never once had a regular period. I didn’t want to wait that long this time. I scheduled an appointment with my doctor and told him about what I had been reading on the internet about natural progesterone. He agreed it would benefit me to try using it and he was going to check my hormone levels in about 6 months. He also suggested I resume my nutritional supplements. The supplements I was using at the time were very expensive and I was taking around 30 pills per day so I went searching for an alternative source. I came across Gail Hess with Neways International. I asked her a ton of questions about the nutrition products offered and everything sounded great and the price was right. I hesitated for a while because I was prospecting other sources as well. Meanwhile I was joining Yahoo groups about women’s health and found Shana Clagg. She had a post describing Estrogen Dominance. I was in complete tears with a tissue in hand and everything by the time I finished reading. THIS WAS ME! How could I not know about this?! I was angry and relieved all in one. I decided to become a Neways International Distributor with Gail so I could get a discount with ordering the supplements I wanted. Only about a week later I realized Shana was also with this company and that it had much more to offer than nutrition supplements. This is when I learned Shana and Gail were on the same team and were both on the same mission to helping women learn about hormone balance. I instantly wanted to learn more and join them in their mission. I spent the next six months reading and researching everything I could get my hands on. All the while using the Neways products to include the progesterone cream called Endau. By the end of those six months I had learned volumes of valuable information and better yet I started having regular periods without cramps, without mood swings. My depression went away instantly when I started using the cream but the other effects of the Depo shot took longer to recover from. I think six months recovery from 10 years worth of shots is impressive. This is only a taste of my story. I would need to write a whole book to get all of the details out. The most important thing I want everyone to know about me is that my life mission is to help as many women learn about hormone balance as I can. I want to reach out to the younger women out there so they can learn what birth control can do to their bodies among the many other things we do to ourselves unknowingly. I hope to teach women my age how to prepare themselves early on for menopause so that doesn’t have to be a scary, bad word for them. I want to help others not have to live the misery that I have known.

Debbie Wells

A woman's walk through hormone imbalance.

The Change of Life~So Young??

It was late spring of 2003 and I had just finished a grueling yet exciting year in my life. I was 45, almost 46 years old and I was running a very successful, Cottage Industry business, Debbie's Clayground, that I had started myself, eight years prior. I was on the board of directors for ChemoAngels International, http://www.chemoangels.com as well as serving as a volunteer ChemoAngel and Angel2TheHeart in one of my best friends national Angeling organizations. http://www.angels2theheart.com.

I competed in the Mrs. Oregon United States Pageant in May of 2003 and was living life in what seemed to be tenth gear. My instincts were telling me that things were changing in my body and something was different. I was fatigued in a way that had not been familiar to me ever before in my life. My memory was all but nonexistent, my hair was falling out, I had been diagnosed with hypoglycemia, severe insomnia, debilitating depression, fibromyalgia, restless leg syndrome, mood swings, rage, chronic fatigue, loss of libido and the list went on. When the pageant schedule ended, I was the proud recipient of the *Mrs. Oregon Enterprise 2003* title. I decided I needed a nice long break from the pace I had been living life and gave myself a month off from all of the activities I was involved in. Little did I know that I had been living on mere fumes for at least three years. I was working out in the gym, twice daily in preparation for the pageant, I was eating like a mouse and sheer will drove me through those years when most of my nutrition came from the tiny bit of cream I added to my coffee. When I stopped working out, my endorphin levels dropped dramatically, my sluggish adrenals flattened all the way out and my own hormone levels were completely out of whack. I found myself in crisis. I was terrified of the changes that were taking place, depressed because no matter what I did, I couldn't turn things around for myself. I had always been a very strong individual, never afraid to try new things or talk to new people. My list of symptoms grew both in number as well as intensity as time passed. Before I finally found my answer, I ended up on 5 prescription drugs and underwent surgery for excessive heavy bleeding, the Uterine Ablation. A procedure that requires searing the lining of the uterus to help thin out the thickening of the uterine wall. This is just a brief testimony of how estrogen dominance interrupted my life. I was frightened, lonely, frustrated, and angry...

After going to the Dr. several times in the course of just a few months, and being told I was far too young to be entering into any phase of menopause, I began searching for information on my own, and found Dr. John Lee's book, *What Your Dr. May Not Tell You About Menopause* I devoured the book in about 4 days time and knew this book held the answers to all the suffering and frustration I was experiencing, however, I had already tried two of Dr. Lee's recommended progesterone creams and while both of them worked for a couple of months, my list of symptoms quickly returned near the end of the second month of use. I was so discouraged and walked away from my progesterone experience thinking *I must not be a good candidate for progesterone therapy*, because I had given two different progesterone products a try and both failed me. It wasn't until later that I learned according to Dr. Lee, a cream is not a cream when it comes to progesterone. He states on his website, a list of criteria to look for when looking for a good progesterone cream. A) It shouldn't come in a jar, because each time you open the jar, air hits the contents of the jar and changes the molecular structure of the contents inside, as each time you insert your finger into it, you are introducing bacteria into the content as well. B) The Progesterone should NOT contain any waxes, paraffin by products, glycerin or heavy oils. All of these ingredients are considered clogging agents and will not allow the progesterone to enter the blood stream through your skin. So I checked the ingredient lists of both the creams I had tried and sure enough.... they were both loaded with the ingredients I mentioned. I decided to give natural progesterone one more try and to my delight, I found the cream that I now consider the best available! It's been over two years since then and I am still using this precious cream that my husband decided to call *Marriage in a tube!* We still laugh about that together. Oh yes.... laughter! I am laughing again and living life to it's fullest!

Progesterone gave me my life back, I am so grateful and now I am on a mission to help spread the word about hormone balancing with natural progesterone. I speak at seminars around the nation, I am a talk radio host, I have several colleagues I work with at this mission and we are always looking for other women who would like to join us as we make a difference, one woman at a time.

Many Blessings~

Wow....has my life changed in the past year!! In Oct. 2006 I was invited to a seminar on hormone balancing. The speaker at the seminar was Debbie Wells and the information that I received that day CHANGED MY LIFE. I didn't know how a little thing like hormone imbalance could make such a huge impact on how our bodies worked. I learned about the 50 symptoms of imbalance (who knew there were so many) and how to get my body back in balance with Natural Progesterone. When I was 17 yrs old, my menstrual cycles were very hard, painful and heavy. My Dr. decided to put me on birth control pills to ease my cycle. At times throughout my life I have had cycles that have lasted up to 4 months. I FINALLY quit taking the pill at the ripe old age of 40. For those of you counting, that is 23 years!! I did try during those years to get off of the pill and try to conceive but my periods were so severe that I always ended up back on the pill to stop the bleeding. At the age of about 25 yrs old I started getting migraine headaches. They began about 3 days before my period and were horrific. 3 days in bed once a month for the last 20 years. I did talk with my Dr. about the headaches being associated with my periods and perhaps being caused by my hormones but of course said NO...it's all in your head. He was right, it was in my head and it hurt!! If I have learned anything during this ordeal it is to take control of your own health....choose your Doctors and be persistent. I "fired" my Doctor, read up on birth control pills and found many articles on the Web about the link between the Pill and Migraines. My "new" Doctor knew all about this and told me to never again take anything with Estrogen...excess estrogen causes migraine headaches. And, because I am just a little stubborn, I did take that information to my old Doctor,,,,everyone needs to share. He didn't appreciate at all!! (sore loser). After stopping the pill, I started getting some symptoms. Hot Flashes....(whew) Night Sweats....(yuck)... Crying for no reason or any reason... and Rapid Heartbeat. There were a few times that I thought I was having a heart attack. I was laying in bed wondering if I should wake up my husband. Rapid Heartbeat is a symptom of hormone imbalance. I knew I couldn't take estrogen, so I went to the health food store to see if I could find something over the counter to help me. I did try a few things but nothing that lasted more than a month or two. Finally....help arrived. I went to Debbie’s seminar on Natural Hormone Health...natural, no chemicals, no toxins, no additives and my body so needed this help. I started using Endau Harmonizing Cream, (Natural Progesterone) and felt better in 3 days!! My night sweats were gone in 3 days!! WOW. I could not believe it. I've learned how the hormones in our food, toxins in the air and chemicals we put on our bodies all lead to estrogen dominance and causes imbalance in our bodies. Neways products are all Natural and Toxin free. I have changed the way my family lives and we feel so much better now. I have started to hold my own seminars on hormone imbalance and with the help of Debbie and the other ladies on our site, we are making a difference. I own a business in Lebanon, Oregon and I have ladies walking in off the street asking for our products. I am walking proof that hormone imbalance can be helped. I am now symptom free. No more flashes, sweats, rapid heartbeat, moodiness, crying and the list goes on. I am 47 yrs old. I have never had a pregnancy, I think that by my taking birth control pills for so long that I may have never been able to conceive. Lucky for me I married a man with 2 wonderful daughters and now am a Grandmother of 3 little girls. Life is good again, I feel like my old self. I could not be happier now that my hormones are balanced. I hope that by writing this that I can touch just one lady who is desperate just like I was. There is help...support is here...glad you stopped by... Jodi Zurfluh

Rose Stading

Hello, my name is Rose Stading. My loving and supportive husband and I have two wonderful daughters, ages 7 and 3. We live in south central Texas, not far from the state's capitol. I am 37, and have had problems with hormonal imbalance since my teen years. They steadily increased in severity into my late 20's where I discovered at the age of 29, that I had fibroid tumor. I was pregnant with my first daughter at the time, and it was quite frightening, as I was told there was a risk for premature delivery. Thank God she was born healthy and only 3 weeks early. Now, lets skip a few years later. I am blessed with another healthy girl, but now I am also learning about hormones and how they can affect us in so many ways. I now know that for quite some time I have been suffering from symptoms of estrogen dominance. Mood swings, irritability, breast tenderness, easy tears, and headaches, to name a few. My fibroid tumor, also stemming from estrogen dominance, caused me to have very heavy, painful, and irregular periods. And then, just a couple of years ago, a very dear friend of mine, Debbie Wells, introduced me to Endau natural progesterone cream. Within a couple of months, my symptoms improved a great deal, and I was thrilled and so very thankful! And now my goal is to share with other women what natural progesterone can do for them, and let them know that there is hope! I am also very grateful to be a part of Women For Balance!

God bless you,

Rose

Mari Fowler

Hi, my name is Mari Fowler. I am married to my wonderful husband for 21 years and we have three beautiful children age 18,16 and 11. I found Neways through my cousin who lives in Japan. It totally changed my life. I have never heard that shampoo has anti-freeze as an ingredient which molecule weight is small enough to go right through our skin and go right into the blood flow which runs 35mph. Nobody told me we need to call poison control if we swallow toothpaste. Then I started my journey to reserch on our health issues. I wanted to protect my family from toxins which surround us and prevent sickness by feeding them with proper nutrition. Now I know this information, I want to share with as many people as possible because I care. I hope you will join me with this mission to prevent sickness and live happy life.

Beverly Eves

I’m Beverly Eves from Denver, Colorado. I’ve been with Neways since 1991, and I absolutely love the skin care. I had begun to have a leathery patch on my cheek and had been using a $50 bottle of Advance Cream, one of those department store brands, every 5 weeks to no avail. All that cream just didn’t seem to make a difference. Then I tried Neways’ skin care line. I could not believe the difference in my skin (how my skin looked and felt) after a few weeks. 16 years later I still have great skin. I guess you would call my skin “mature skin”. I was 70 in December, live in a very dry climate, and am a great-grandmother of a beautiful 3 year old girl and baby boy. I get lots of compliments on my skin and always tell people “I am a Neways’ baby”. Neways Skin Enhancer had always been my favorite to moisturize and protect from harmful UV rays and Night Science (our PM skin repair complex) uses a UV-repair system and deals with damage caused by the sun at night. Its B-glucans and polysaccharides enable the skin’s immune cells to work against harmful agents that accumulate on the skin during the day. It has ingredients I can’t even pronounce. I loved it even more when I added 2 drops each of carrot seed, lavender & frankincense essential oils. Then in 2006 Neways introduced Cascading Skin Complex. It was incredible. It just swooshes into my skin. I finally convinced my husband to try it “to inhibit the UV damage from being in the sun”. He always said “real men don’t do skin care”. Friends began noticing the dramatic change in his skin and wanted to try it. He may be my best testimony. He loves Skin Complex and told me yesterday that it helps razor burn. Neways Skin Care: 1. Doesn’t seal off the skin to keep moisture in. It lets the skin breath and respire. 2. Small molecular weight (under 3000) lets product penetrate the skin, but not the bloodstream. 3. Uses exciting discoveries from around the world, ingredients that really work! AND at therapeutic doses that really “do something”. Neways is as good as it gets . . . at any price.” Then I learned about Neways’ mission – to bring safe products. At first I couldn’t believe the story that there are harmful ingredients in personal care. (I was born in Missouri, the “show-me” state). How could that be true? Back in the early 90s people thought we were “strange” when we shared this story. Now you read about these dangers everywhere. My husband, Larry, and I also use many of the Neways’ nutritional products. I truly believe Neways has the finest quality nutritional products available anywhere. Neways uses standardized ingredients of the finest quality (extracts vs. whole plant, pharmaceutical grade/vs. food grade) with state-of-the-art delivery systems for better absorption/bioavailability. I witnessed Neways’ Life Enhancer helped many women with their hormonal issues. Some delighted husbands called it “Wife Enhancer”. I first heard Dr John Lee speak at a seminar about natural progesterone. By then I was well through the menopause and had survived it. Dr. Lee described how he first began prescribing it for women with osteoporosis who also had breast cancer and shouldn’t be using the recognized treatment of estrogen, so I began using it to prevent osteoporosis. My bone density is 90% of that for a 20 year old. Every time I have a bone density test they tell me, “Whatever you are doing, just keep doing it.” I have also witnessed women blessed with help or remission of breast or uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and osteoporosis . . . and help with their PMS symptoms. I have even heard stories of “progesterone babies” born to young women previously unable to conceive. My husband (my boyfriend since I was 14 and the love of my life) was diagnosed with prostate cancer in May of 2002. We were devastated but sought out natural alternatives. He didn’t want surgery or chemo. Dr Lee wrote a book called Hormonal Balance for Men covering the cause and treatment of prostate issues and prostate cancer. He wrote, “The truth about prostate cancer (hint: it's not the testosterone)” Men have too much estrogen. We immediately put Larry on progesterone cream. This treatment was affirmed by his alternative doctor. We are so grateful that 5 ½ years after diagnosis Larry is still doing well. His annual saliva hormone testing has shown his hormonal balance more and more optimal. He is always glad to share his philosophy of dealing with cancer with others. I love sharing health with others and love the people. It has been a journey or learning about health, real health. I feel that I really make a difference – helping people look and feel better . . . and look and act younger.

After 25 years of frustrating female problems, massive doses of estrogen, then thyroid, still with no lasting relief--doctors recommended a hysterectomy. Thank God I was lead to Neways, Inc. where I met people from around the world who had amazing health turnarounds with a 3500 year old Ming Dynasty exclusive formula they market called LIFE ENHANCER. This "high medicine" tonic formula was so highly revered by the Chinese government that they awarded it "National Treasure" status. Though other people had results with heart, diabetes, circulation, depression problems, because Life Enhancer especially strengthened the glands, I thought it might help me. It took just over 5 months (taking normal, not therapeutic doses)to normalize my body. I was so happy and yet angry at the same time for the wasted money, time and quality of life of those years without Life Enhancer. The side effects of this natural alternative included sounder sleep, greater energy and stress didn't bring me down. Later Neways added a bio-identical natural progesterone cream called Endau that does much of what Life Enhancer does. But that prized Chinese formulation will always be my favorite because of its broad range of benefits. I am so grateful someone thought enough of me to share Neways and Life Enhancer. They changed my life. I would love you to benefit the same way. Let me know if I can help you. Warm regards, Sunny

Oh, my, where to begin. I am a 51-year-old divorced mother of two, now with a very sweet, caring, and supportive man. I noticed something odd starting to happen to me in March of 2003. I became very irregular (I could normally set my watch I was so regular) and was even hotter than I normally am (and I have always been hot, even when everyone else is cold). Not sweaty hot, but very uncomfortable, especially at night. I didn’t think much of it, even though I was in my late 40’s, since my mother didn’t go through menopause until she was in her early 60’s. Then in the middle of September of 2003, something attention grabbing did happen. I started to experience menorrhagia – nonstop. Finally, in November I went to the doctor. I had no health insurance at the time but my family convinced (more like scared, threatened – you know what I’m talking about!) me to see a doctor. Besides, it was disrupting my life, especially since I worked part-time as a lifeguard! The doctor gave me Premarin to stop the bleeding. Well, it stopped for 5 days then started right up again. So he sent me for an internal and external ultrasound to see if that would show any cancer. All tests came back negative. Couldn’t find anything wrong. He did say that I was anemic. Well, duh! He also said that my ovaries were getting confused, that they were both bleeding at the same time. In other words, my hormones were way out of whack. He just wanted to put me on the pill but I wouldn’t take it. Then in January of 2004, I became my old self again. Don’t know why or how, but I was back to normal. I had a peacefully normal two and a half years. But then in August of 2006, it started up again. I had read about soy helping with hormone symptoms and tried taking that. Didn’t help. I tried various herbs, vitamins, and minerals – none of which really helped. Somehow I stumbled upon information about progesterone therapy. Hmmm....could this be the answer? I ordered the natural progesterone cream and started using it on April 27, 2007 (I have kept a diary of this nightmare!) and the very next day the bleeding stopped entirely!!! And since that time, I have very light, regular periods. Oh yeah, and I don’t toss the covers off me in the middle of the night any more. My sweetie is happy about that, now we can snuggle more than 10 seconds! Natural progesterone cream has brought my life back to normal (well, at least normal for me – LOL). You don’t have to suffer through menopause. You can breeze through it. We’re not getting older, we’re getting better!!!

Cheers, Maggie

Tracy Lewis

I am a 43 year old mother and wife on a qwest to help myself and other women to enjoy life more fully!

Hello! My Name it Tracy but my friends call me T

I have always had really horrible periods and having babies only seemed to make things worse. Even tho i was told it would be different.
Not to mention the fact that i had extremely difficult pregnancies. Almost died along with my first son while giving birth to him and ended up having CODE BLUE on us and being rushed into to have an emergency ceserean.
When it came time for my second to be born i chose ceserean just to avoid severe problems. These 2 cesereans then later caused me more female problems.

The doctors never seemed to be able to do anything about all my problems and symptoms tho. They always just gave me fixes that either didnt work or were just temporary. And convinced me that most of it was only in my head.

After my second child was born, my doctor told me that if i had my tubes tied alot of my problems would be over. YEA RIGHT SURE THEY WERE........NOT!
In fact alot of things only got alot worse!

Some of the symptoms that I suffered were, migraine headaches, insomnia, depression,panic attacks, mood swings, heart palpitations,low blood sugar, anemia, extra low blood pressure, loss of hair, loss of libido, itchy crawly skin, vaginal dryness, hot flashes, severe gastritis, acid reflux, gall bladder problems, dizziness, anxiety, brittle nails, fatigue, no energy, ringing ears along with other severe ear and hearing problems, severe water retention,arthritis, sudden weight gain in large amounts and losses of concentration and memory.

Ok fast forward now to 7 years ago........ Finally i was to the point that someone had to do something and NOW!
My periods were so awful that at times i literally thought i was going to bleed to death. Having my period literally meant i was out of commission, throwing up and curled up in a ball in excrutiating pain for days.

So my doctor came up with a solution finally after many trial and errors with many different medications.
He put me on depo-provera and preached it up to me to be a miraculous thing!!!! The main side effect of Depo is ......NO PERIODS! So here i am thinking OH THANK GOD FINALLY SOME RELIEF!!

When the doctor put me on it he told me to expect maybe a little weight gain of up to like 10 lbs. Well i thought to myself ok thats not that bad at the weight i was at that time and it will be worth it if i can just get out of my misery!

For the next almost 5 years i was on it. ONLY TO FIND OUT IT WAS THE WORST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE!!!!!
Over that 5 years i had numerous different unexplainable health problems ranging from strange cysts, infections, unexplainable pains, eye problems, back problems, migraines,circulation problems and oh the list goes on!
Each time something would come up, and no one could explain why i would question the doctors if it had anything to do with the depo and every time they said NO just in my head and pure coincidence was all.
I KNEW IT WASNT BUT I COULDNT MAKE ANYONE LISTEN THEY JUST KEPT MAKING ME THINK I DIDNT KNOW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT!

All the while i was was gaining weight at a scary rate with no explanation either. YEA RIGHT UP TO 10 LBS HUH DOC???? TRY MORE LIKE 10 LBS EVERY SHOT! So do your math up to 10 lbs every 3 months for 5 years. NOT FUN AND VERY UPSETTING!
So between the excessive weight, the depression and stress and then the health problems on top.......i had gotten to a point where i could barely even function anymore and was totally disgusted with me and my life.
More doctors,tons of medicines, more tests yet never any real solutions.

I started doing massive research both at the library and online. What i found about the depo was terrifying! Thousands out there were having the same problems and same symptoms as me!

Once again i questioned my doctor and only got the same answer from him.....NO TOTAL COINCIDENCE IS ALL.

I got to the point where i no longer even wanted to get out of bed much less function in the world. I didnt want to go anywhere because everything was either hurting or i was horribly depressed. They put me on anti depressents which seemed only to make things even worse if you ask me. I was snapping at my family left and right and by this time i was even begining to have friends comment and ask me why i was so upset and stuff all the time. Thats when i also then realized that this stuff was changing my whole personality too. SOMETHING HAD TO GIVE!

I just kept having doctors tell me that it was in my head etc. and that the weight gain was lack of self control etc. Yea right....i would go for days not eating and yet still my body kept gaining.
I started having bad mammograms and bad pap smears etc. Luckily tho when redone then they kept coming back ok. Still everything was out of control and too weird. Finally i decided that I THOUGHT IT WAS THE DEPO even tho the doctors kept saying it wasnt.

I then went off the depo......that was 16 months ago. I kept being told it takes up to a year for the depo to get out of your system and normal periods to return. But that didnt happen. Instead immediately i started with yet more health problems and constant horrible cramps that would continue for the next 19 months on a daily basis! And well we all know cramps arent fun when we have to have them so imagine having them for over a year straight and excrutiating ones at that!

By this point i felt totally lost, totally scared and totally helpless. I kept being told that since i wasnt starting i was obviously going into menopause. But still offered no solutions!

Finally the doctor suggested that i get a hysterectomy after supposedly being diagnosed as having HPV and dysplasia and that would solve my problems!
Well by this time i wasnt going with what they said right off without LOTS OF RESEARCH and well that led me to read alot more possible problems!
Solution.......yea right dont think so!

I then ended up going to a new doctor for a second opinion. And well all that led to was more tests, more medicines and still no solutions but at least she wasnt suggesting a hysterectomy or at least not yet. And the supposed HPV and DYSPLASIA i mentioned before???? I came back totally negative of ever having had them!!!!
JUST MADE ME EVEN MORE ANGRY AT THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY FOR ALL THE ANGUISH AND DEPRESSION I HAD BEEN THRU! And just even more determined to get back control of my life and my health!

Then i started with even more variety of health problems and well now i was at my wits end and i knew that if this was menopause etc. i just couldnt hack it.

My doctors suggestion at this point?
To have a full blown D&C(thermal ablation) and "hopefully" that would help. HOPEFULLY???

I was so depressed and had basically just given up all hope of ever feeling "normal" again when....i came across some information about a natural progesterone cream called endau that was helping lots of women overcome symptoms just like mine!

Of course i went into this whole thing thinking yea yea yea been there done that and heard it all! But the more i researched and heard about these products.....it gave me aray of hope!

I decided ok what they heck i will give it a shot but thinking all the while this is pointless how can these help when all the doctors, medicine and tests havent!
But i figured ok what have i truly got to lose here???
Nothing except maybe all of this horrible nightmare that i was being forced to call me and my life.

I ordered a tube of the Endau cream and started using it. After a couple weeks i ordered a couple of the other products too. It wasnt long until i started feeling good again!!!!!
I just kept thinking to myself.....can i be imagining this or could this really be true???

Well i am here to tell you..........ITS TRUE ITS FOR REAL AND ITS WONDERFUL!!!

I started out having 30 of the 35 symptoms on the list. Gradually the number has been jumping right down the scale and i am happy to announce that after just about a month and a half of these products........I AM FEELING MORE LIKE MYSELF THEN I HAVE FELT IN YEARS!!
My symptoms are now down to well the last time i checked i was at 12 of the 35 on the list.

But whats so glorious is...1 i finally got a period yipppeeeeeee and the horrid cramps completely stopped on a daily basis..each day i feel more energy and alive and my zest for life is coming back.. and each day i see less and less of the health problems and even my family has noticed and commented on the big turn around with me!!!

And all the horrible excessive weight that i had gained???
Is shedding off of my at an amazing rate!
The bloating and swelling is gone as is all the aches and pains. And my sleep is wonderful!! I am starting to feel human again!!

That is why i decided to become a distributor of these fantastic products.

I want other women out there suffering from the symptoms of menopause or effects of prescription medications to hear about these wonderful products and also to learn all the great information that will be provided here.

I WANT THEM TO FEEL SAFE AND SECURE AND KNOW THEY ARE NOT ALONE!
I have been there and back so i know for a fact how it feels!
THERE IS HOPE LADIES AND ITs NEVER TO LATE!

I know at this point i dont ever want to be without this glorious stuff again!
DONT COME BETWEEN ME AND MY CREAM! (or the other products i use for that matter!

Thanks for letting me ramble on to you all and i hope that my experience and this place may at least help one person out there if not many!

HORMONAL WOMEN UNITE!

You will see as others share their stories too and you will see its not just a coincidence with me!
And the update now is........i have been on the cream and products for awhile now and the difference truly is amazing!!

I just cant believe that i can actually feel as good as i do and loving life again and its like all the rest of the past truly was a nightmare but now i have woke up!
I have woke up and took me and my health and my life back into my own hands!
Its just so stress relieveing and such a liberating feeling when you do! And my family are friends are so very happy and grateful for this stuff because the REAL ME is back!

June Adams

Hi, I would like to thank you for taking your valuable time in visiting my website. My name is June Adams and I will be 75 in March 2008. I grew up in Santa Barbara, California. When the Doctor told my husband “sell your business or I’m going to put you in a box”, we made the move to our 60 acre Ranch on the river in Green River, Utah. I wish that I would have known the information contained on this site back in the 40's and 50's. My problems began in the early 40's. At that time we took the Dr’s opinion for gospel truth. I had my first Ovarian cyst removed when I was 13 years old. I still had problems every month and every other month was worse. My gynecologist stated a hysterectomy was the only answer but he wouldn’t do this until I was married and had children. After marriage in 1953 we were unable to have children. God gave us two beautiful children through adoption in 63 & 66. Shortly after that the Doctor did the hysterectomy. Stating at that time through surgery they realized I had endometriosis. The Doctor gave me a prescription for Premarin and stated I would need to take it the rest of my life. After the first bottle I couldn’t tell any difference so never refilled it. At the end of 1999 we received a letter, “Did You Know” telling us about all of the toxic items in our personal care products. We had never read labels prior to this- what an awakening! We discovered Neways and have been using Neways products since 2000 and I can’t begin to tell you the difference they have made in our life. My desire is to help not only women, but men also to find relief in their hormone related issues. I had no idea there are 50 symptoms of Hormonal Imbalance. Please check these out on our site. We if can be of any help please contact us. My best wishes for a long and healthy life for you and yours.

When I was around 26 and trying to have a child, I found out that I had endometriosis. Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus is found elsewhere in the body. For example, in the pelvic cavity: on the ovaries, the fallopian tubes and on the pelvic sidewalls. Endometriosis fused together my internal organs and made it impossible for me to have a child. It was decided that I needed to have surgery to remove the endometriosis. During the surgery they had to take part of one ovary and repair one of my fallopian tubes. They called my surgery the “Blue Plate Special”. So time went on and I still did not get pregnant. My husband and I decided that we really wanted a child so we went to an adoption agency and within a year adopted a beautiful baby girl. I still continued to try to get pregnant by using fertility pills. I finally had enough and decided to take a break from using the pills. Shortly thereafter, I found out that I was pregnant with our second baby girl.

As the years went by, I started having problems bleeding all the time. The doctors said I should try what they called a D&C. D&C means dialation and curettage which is a procedure where they open your cervix and scrape the uterine wall or suction out the contents of your uterus. I had this done a couple of times and it didn't stop the bleeding. So the next course, at age 38, was to have a total hysterectomy. Had I known about how progesterone can help with infertility and stop endometrosis, I wouldn't have had the surgery, but I didn’t know any better. After the surgery I was put on premarin (estrogen)to stop the hot flashes.

Five years later I decided that I wanted to find a way to help others with their health. I was introduced to Neways International by my best friend. This company claimed that personal care products out in the marketplace contained potentially harmful and carcinogenic ingredients. I couldn't believe it! So, my best friend and I went to the library and researched what they said and found out that it was true. I immediately signed up with Neways, ordered all new toxin free products and threw out all of my other products. I wanted my children to be safe and not exposed to such harmful ingredients.

During the course of learning more about the products that Neways offered, I learned that Neways had a product called Endau, which is a progesterone cream. I found out that I was estrogen dominance and should be using progesterone instead of premarin. Researched showed that premarin caused cancer. I then decided to wean myself off premarin and started using our progesterone cream. I knew in my heart that I was doing the right thing. My doctor, of course, was opposed to this.

Since that time I have helped many women with their hormonal problems and I hope that you will browse through this site. It contains a wealth of important information that all women and men should know.

I am 51 years old and have been having premenopause symptoms since I was about 45. I didn't know what was going on with my body. I was on the Depo Provera shot for birth control since my son was born 13 years ago. The doctor also put me on Paxil because he said I was depressed. I was diagnosed with emphysema and COPD about 3 years ago, so I am also on inhalers (QVar and Albuterol). The doctor also put me on cholesterol medicine because my cholesterol was high. Towards the end of 2006 I met Debbie Wells online talking about the company Neways and the natural progesterone she has been using for premenopause. I signed up as a preferred customer and ordered this cream. I started using it and within about 2 months I was feeling so much better. I quit having the hot flashes, my mood improved considerably, I didn't mind going a day or two without my nap and just generally felt better. Once I started feeling good again, I quit the Depo shots, the cholesterol medicine and the Paxil. I think it was these medicines that were making me feel so miserable. The only medicines I am still on are the inhalers. I can't thank Debbie Wells enough for introducing me to these products. I feel SO MUCH better!

Lori Kilfian

Hello! Welcome to my site. My name is Lori Kilfian and I have been blessed to be the wife of a one-in-a-million-man, and am a homeschool mom of 4 children ages 23 down to 7 years.

Just like lots of other health conscious parents, I look on the label of the foods I prepare for my family. But, it didn’t even occur to me to look on the label of the soaps, body lotions and cosmetics we apply on our familys’ skin. Even though I KNEW that the skin is the largest organ of the body and is excellent at absorbing,… I didn’t even THINK about what we were putting on it in the way of cleansers and cosmetics. I figured it HAD to be safe or it wouldn’t be on the market! Boy, was “I” wrong!

Not only do a lot of the “toxic chemicals” that we’ve been applying to our skin cause cancer; but they also mess with our hormones and everything else that make us tick.

I was fortunate to find the Neways products in 2003. These products are proven SAFE for my family. Everyone needs to know about the harmful products at the local store –vs- the SAFE products of Neways. I’ve made it my mission to get the message out! Please,… don’t just say, “Everything causes cancer; so what’s the use!” (As I’ve heard from even my own family.) Every little thing we do helps or hinders our quality of life.

BONUS – Switching to Neways products has another perk besides the health side,… you can make money, too! Everyone NEEDS healthy personal products for their family. As your family begins to switch to healthier products and you begin to feel and see a difference; it will be just automatic for you to tell others! They will then start using the Neways products, and on and on it goes!

We should be wise with our health AND with our money. This said; please feel free to contact me to become a Wholesale Customer (30% off the purchase price) or to become a Distributor (make money on the needed products you and others use).

I trust you’ll find lots of useful information on this web site as you pursue health.

Thanks for visiting!

Helen and Silva Chamlee

Hi our names are Helen Chamlee & Silvia Chamlee I am Silvia Chamlee a wife and mother of two small children. I have been a Neways Independent Distributor for seven years. My family and I have been and continue to successfully mitigate many of the harmful exposures to hormones since my oldest child was three months old and my mother in-law (Helen Chamlee) introduced Neways and their mission to rid homes across America of harmful ingredients that compromise our health on every level due to carcinogens, hormone mimickers, and toxins. I am Helen Chamlee and I am a wife, mother and grandmother. I am also a Neways distributor. After joining Neways my entire life began to change for the better. Perhaps the most amazing thing that happened was the restoration of my health, which occurred after implementing the use of Endau natural progesterone cream into my daily lifestyle. After reading Dr. Lee’s book “What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause” I knew it was time to make some changes. I threw out the HRT I had been on for 3yrs. I had an osteoporosis test and found I had this debilitating disease. I began using Neways Endau natural progesterone cream and taking other supplements that Neways offers. Because of these products I was able to reverse the disease (meaning I increased my bone density, and today I no longer have osteoporosis). Helen and I believe so strongly in Neways and their mission for creating safe homes. Our goal is to share this information with everyone so they may make healthier choices for themselves and their family. We hope you will take the time to read the information, do your own research and then activate positive toxin free living in both your life, and your family's lives. Here's to maximum wellness, and vitality! Helen and Silvia

When I was first introduced to Neways more than ten years ago I was amazed. For years I had been either making my own concoctions of shampoo, facial cleanser, and deodorant, or else doing completely without, and I had long since given up all hope of ever finding any products to purchase that would meet my standards of safety and purity of ingredients.

One day a dear friend handed me a brochure about Neways products and the harmful ingredients story, and from that time on, for more than ten years, I have been using Neways products exclusively. I started out with deodorant, hair care and bath, and I now take a wide range of supplements, use all the makeup, wash my clothes and clean my house with Neways products.

I am convinced that the Lord led me to Neways. Only a few years after my introduction I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma, and I credit my quick recovery and continued excellent health to the dedicated use of Neways products.

One of the most exciting discoveries I think was when I began to learn about Neways Endau. The information available in this website is incredible, and has changed my life as well as the lives of many of my friends and family. You, too, will be amazed as you begin to use Neways products.

Please feel free to contact me at any time, and I will be happy to discuss various products with you, and help you to decide which ones would work best for you.

Be sure to ask me about the wonderful income opportunities with Neways!

Arlene Gabrielson

My name is Arlene Gabrielson and I have been married to my wonderful husband Dave for 40 years! We have two grown boys, two lovely daughter-in-laws, and two amazing grandchildren.

I was misdiagnosed in my early 30’s and was given thyroid medication when (what I know now) all I needed was some natural progesterone. I was experiencing night sweats and hypoglycemic episodes throughout the day that caused me concern. The doctor felt I was too early for Premenopause so he got me started on a drug for hypothyroidism.

At that time I had already been working over ten years as a hair stylist – over working – like most ambitious stylists do – and I know now that the toxins from my profession caused my hormone imbalance and eventually (because I was so estrogen dominant) – I was diagnosed with Lupus.

Click here --->> http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/17595 if you would like to hear my story on a Talk Show entitled “Winning the Lupus Battle”. Chances are, if you have any autoimmune system disease you can relate to my whole ridiculous ordeal with 7 different doctors and years of prescription drugs that just about did me in!

In desperation – I found a natural alternative diet and supplementation treatment for my Lupus and it made a world of difference. But it wasn’t until I was introduced to Neways – that I learned about harmful ingredients in my everyday personal care products and of course, the shampoos I was using many times a day with clients. So I started to detox my body, take their wonderful nutritionals and added the natural progesterone cream! This was the missing piece of the puzzle.

I had the privilege of dinning with the late Dr. John Lee. During our conversation, he shared with me the benefits of my company’s progesterone cream compared to other companies. I am so grateful for that time with him and the confirmation of the quality of cream I use and promote.

I am now preparing to teach other women of all ages about the benefits of good nutrition, non-toxic products, and natural progesterone cream.

To your health and happiness,

Jill Ites

My name is Jill Ites. I have been interested in natural products for about 20 years. I started working in a natural food store because of my health difficulties and my youngest daughter's. She has asthma and had food allergies to wheat,corn,and oats. I was there for 5 years, and was amazed at all the things people don't know about what happens with chemicals around us. I found out about Neways when my husband invited me to a meeting about the Roil Gold oil product. Then I found out about the essential oils and all of the other great products that Neways has. The supplements are great combinations, many of them from China.

Peggy Krzmarzick

My name is Peggy Krzmarzick, I’m 54, wife, mother of 4 adult children and 2 beautiful grandchildren. I have a wonderful, understanding, fun loving husband, Paul and we now live in Davenport, IA.

In November of 2003 a friend invited me to an aromatherapy class, what an interesting and informational; both exciting and upsetting experience that was hearing and learning about the benefits of using aromatherapy oil for therapeutic purposes, safe Neways products but what toxins and harmful ingredients are in our everyday grocery store personal care products. I went home and started reading the labels of the products we were using that had sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), propylene glycol, DEA, sodium fluoride, aluminum. We are talking about shampoos, soaps both solid and liquids, toothpaste, deodorants, baby products, even imitation vanilla, dried onion rings to name a few products I looked at that same evening. I also went to the dictionary and looked up the definition of propylene glycol: a colorless viscous hygroscopic liquid used in antifreeze solutions, in hydraulic fluids and as a solvent. The next day I ordered Neways Convert Your Bathroom Pack of personal care products. I hated to use my mainstream products until I could receive my Neways products. Upon receiving them I threw away all products with the potentially harmful ingredients. I started being very aware of labels on everything we used and bought from this point forward. That was and continues to be a life changing evening for myself and family.

Although, that was only the beginning of my concern about what we put in, on, breathe and are exposed to in our environment. In my self-employed business of companion services I do a lot of housekeeping and cleaning, realizing I was inhaling and getting harmful chemicals on my skin, I switched over to Neways household cleaning products both for business and home. Fast forward 1 year. I was happy helping the elderly, all our children were doing well, older 2 now married, 3rd child, Matthew, excellent new job, building a new home and youngest son in college, my husband, Paul was doing well at his job. We had our family altogether for Christmas and we helped Matt move into his new home. Life was great and we thank the Lord!

In January of 2005 the unthinkable happened, Matthew became seriously ill and died of a rare cancer, leiomyosarcoma 4 ½ mos after diagnosis. Because of Matthew’s death we dramatically changed our lifestyle and began eating organic fruits, vegetables, almond milk and meat without antibiotics, we have sought the advice of holistic/alternative practitioners, along with nutritional therapy.

I’m currently experiencing concerns with my thyroid, adrenals and hormones which is a post menopausal issue. I am doing alternative nutritional therapy, instead of surgery or taking synthetic thyroid medication.

It is now our primary goal to educate others about using safe products, reducing and or preventing exposure to harmful ingredients. WE suggest getting involved in your health, by researching and asking questions of your medical consultants, a willingness to use alternative nutritionals and exercise by simply going for a walk everyday.

We feel confident knowing that Neways uses safer ingredients and is always striving to improve what science and nature have to offer. We want to help people of all ages especially the next generation of young families and individuals live healthier.

God bless and best wishes.

Cari VanRossum

Hello, and thanks for visiting my site! I am Cari VanRossum. I am 41 and a depression survivor! I used to be on medications for depression and anxiety. It used to take me 45 minutes to make a box of Mac-n- Cheese! I couldn’t focus on any task and I would cry at the drop of a hat. I had two jobs. I lost one and nearly lost the other. My sex drive was non-existent and was not enjoyable when it was there. I had no ability to relate to my kids and my husband. My marriage was falling apart. Now, I have been free of depression and anxiety and the medications that go with them for over a year! I have a new job. My kids are happier and doing better in school. My relationship with my husband has really improved and I have found that I am doing more than I thought I could. I was at a point years before where I would sit at an intersection and wait for a semi truck to approach. I was so close to giving everything up I cringe just thinking about it now. I was afraid to try anything new. I would stare at the tv for several hours and not know what I had been watching. I was drinking daily and throwing money away as if it grew on trees. My neighbor, one day, asked me to try this new shampoo and conditioner. I did and I am still using it. I love it! It was through that experience that I opened up to trying some other Neways products. I found the Endau Hormone Balancing Cream and the Durian Juice. These two products have done more for me and my self-confidence than anything else I can think of! I started to face my fears and enjoy myself, my kids, my husband and then, my motorcycle! There are still tests to be passed but I am ready to take them on now. I couldn’t even think about these things clearly two years ago. It makes me wonder what is in store? What is coming up next? What will I learn and how will I use what I learn? I hope you will find this website informative and educational. I hope you will join my Yahoo group to share your experiences and ask questions. I want to help other women win their battles against depression and anxiety like I did. I also want you to learn more about staying healthy along with me. Happy reading! There is some much more here than hormone balance. Also look for info about cancer prevention and more. Life is not about what you get. It is about what you give. Make it a great day! Be well ~ Cari
